Kukhona izimpawu zokugula. I-India isilungele ukuba yindawo yomhlaba wonke yezokuvakasha kwezokwelashwa kuleli khulunyaka.
Ochwepheshe bezokuvakasha balinganisela ukuthi, njengoba iziguli zakwamanye amazwe zithuthelekela eNdiya ukuze zelashwe izifo ezihlukahlukene ngezindleko eziphansi uma kuqhathaniswa, izwe lase-Asia elingaphansi kwezwekazi lase-Asia lingathola u-$2.3 billion ngo-2012 ngokuvakasha kwezokwelapha kuphela.
Ukuvakasha kwezokwelapha kwaseNdiya kuqhutshwa ukusebenza kahle kwezindleko zakho uma kuqhathaniswa nezinye izindawo.
Njengoba zihlinzekwa ngobuchwepheshe obuyinkimbinkimbi obuthuthukisa ukunemba kanye nesivinini ekuxilongweni okuhlanganiswe nobuhlakani bezokwelapha nokunakekelwa komuntu siqu, izibhedlela eziningi zezinkampani zase-India zidume ngobusha kwezokwelapha zenhliziyo kanye nokufakelwa izitho zomzimba phakathi kwezinye ezinamazinga empumelelo aphezulu kakhulu.
Umqondo wobambiswano oluzimele lomphakathi (i-PPP) ube wumgogodla wendaba yempumelelo yezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha e-India.
Ama-Consortiums abe ngumgogodla wezikhungo zezokwelapha zezinkampani ezinokusekelwa okuphezulu okuvela ezigulini zamazwe ngamazwe.
Nganoma imuphi umcabango, ezokuvakasha ngezokwelashwa zingomunye wemikhiqizo yezokuvakasha yaseNdiya ekhula ngokugxumela nemingcele futhi isethelwe ukwenza umnotho wezwe uqine nakakhulu.
Kunezifundo okumele iZambia izithathe ekuthuthukisweni komkhiqizo wezokuvakasha wezokwelapha waseNdiya. Lokhu kungukuthi, ezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha ziwumkhiqizo osebenzayo ongathuthukiswa “njengemenyu” eyengeziwe emikhiqizweni yezokuvakasha ekhona ngokubamba iqhaza kwemboni ezimele.
KuHlelo Lwesihlanu Lwentuthuko Lukazwelonke, inqubomgomo evamile kaHulumeni iwukuba izinkampani ezizimele ziqhubekisele phambili ukuthuthukiswa kwezokuvakasha futhi zifake isandla ekwenzeni iZambia ibe indawo enkulu yokuthuthukisa ezokuvakasha.
Lokhu kuzoza nezici eziyingqayizivele ezizogqugquzela ukukhula komnotho okusimeme kanye nokunciphisa ubumpofu ngo-2030. Igalelo lomkhakha wezokuvakasha ekukhuleni komnotho kanye nokuncishiswa kobubha 'lihunyushwa' njengelibalulekile. Ukubekwa kwezokungcebeleka endaweni yesibili kuhlelo lokuthuthukisa umnotho wezwe, kufakazela lokhu.
Ukuze umkhakha wezokuvakasha uthuthuke, uHulumeni waseZambia ukunaka ngokukhethekile ukuthuthukiswa kwe-National Tourism Development Master Plan- okuwumbhalo oluhlaza ochaza amasu okuqinisekisa ingcebo yezomnotho kwezokuvakasha.
Lawa masu ahlobene, phakathi kokunye, ukuthuthukisa ukufinyeleleka ezindaweni ezibalulekile njenge-Kafue National Park, ukuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda, kanye nokuthuthukiswa kwephrojekthi ye-Northern Circuit Tourism.
Ukwehlukahlukana kwemikhiqizo kungenye isu okuhloswe ngayo ukuthi iZambia ikwazi ukuthola izinzuzo zezomnotho eziphezulu kwezokuvakasha.
Ngakho-ke ukuthuthukiswa kwezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha kuhambisana kahle nenqubomgomo kahulumeni yokuhlukahluka kwemikhiqizo yezokuvakasha okuzoba nomthelela ekukhuliseni abavakashi abafikayo ngaphezu kwesigidi esilindelwe ngonyaka.
Njengoba ukuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda enganele bekulokhu kunciphisa ubungako bokuthuthukiswa komkhiqizo wezokuvakasha, indlela ye-PPP ingasetshenziswa njengendawo yokuhlangana ukuze kuvuswe iqhaza lezinkampani ezizimele ekubumbeni ezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha eZambia, njengoba kwenzeka eNdiya.
Ikhaya leTaj Mahal elidumile, eNdiya livame ukuchazwa njengepharadesi labavakashi. Kusukela e-Himalayas yaseKashmir egcwele iqhwa enamandla enyakatho, kuya olwandle oluluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka iKanyakumari eningizimu, uhlaza lwaseSunderbans empumalanga, indawo yokulondoloza imvelo nezilwane evikelekile enkulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni, kuya ezinqabeni zomlando izindawo ezingcwele zaseRajasthan ngasentshonalanga, i-India inakho konke umhambi ohamba ngezinyawo angakuthola kungenakuvinjelwa ukukuhlola.
Ukuvakasha kwangaphakathi kuyadlondlobala futhi izwe lizokwenza konke okusemandleni ukuheha abahambi abaningi abavela emhlabeni jikelele. Ngokusho kwe-Pacific-Asia Travel Association ukufika kwamazwe ngamazwe ezindaweni e-Asia-Pacific kukhule ngamaphesenti angu-2.6 ngo-2008 naphezu kokuwohloka komnotho.
Enye yezinto eziyisa lo mkhakha emazingeni aphezulu e-India, ukuvakasha kwezokwelapha. Isekelwa ingqalasizinda ethuthuke kahle, amathuluzi asezingeni eliphezulu, kanye nekhono eliholwa yizinkampani ezizimele.
I-India iye yavela njengendawo yokuzikhethela yokungenelela kwezokwelapha okuhlukahlukene.
Omunye wabahlinzeki bezempilo abathenjwa kakhulu base-Asia abanemibhede engaphezu kuka-10,000 ezibhedlela ezingu-44 futhi abaziqhayisa ngobuchwepheshe bolwazi lokunakekelwa kwezempilo, i-telemedicine, kanye nemfundo nokuqeqeshwa kwezokwelapha, i-Apollo Hospital.
Isibhedlela sihlanganisa ubuhle bezokwelapha kanye namaphakheji eTourism eziguli zamazwe ngamazwe. Njengoba kungase kubonakale ukuthi imboni ezimele e-India ibe nesandla ekuthuthukiseni ukuvakasha kwezokwelapha.
Ngendlela efanayo, imboni ezimele eZambia ingahola ekukhuthazeni ezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha njengengxenye yohlelo lokwehlukahlukana kwemikhiqizo ukuze kuthuthukiswe umnotho usebenze kakhulu.
Njengoba iZambia izimisele ngokuthwebula izimakethe zezokuvakasha ezingaphezu kwezimakethe zemithombo yendabuko eYurophu naseMelika, ukwengezwa kwezokwelapha kwezokuvakasha emikhiqizweni ekhona yezokuvakasha ikakhulukazi eheha izitshalo nezilwane, kuzofaka umfutho ekuthuthukiseni isimo seZambia njengendawo yokuvakasha ekhethwayo. ngokuhambisana nombono kahulumeni wokusebenzisa lo mkhakha njengendlela yokuthuthukisa umnotho.
Inselelo iwukuthi abazimele, ngokuhambisana nenqubomgomo kaHulumeni, badlale indima yabo ekwenzeni ezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha zibe ngokoqobo ngokutshala imali emabhizinisini okunakekela ezempilo.
Ku-Export-Import Bank of India/Confederation of Indian Industry Conclave on India-Africa Project Partnership, amazwe ase-Afrika anxuswe ukuthi akhuthaze izibhedlela eziholwa yizinkampani ezizimele.
Kule ngqungquthela, i-India yathembisa ukuhlinzeka ngemininingwane yokuthi kwenziwa kanjani “amantongomane namabhawodi” kwezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha. Ngakho-ke, iZambia ingasebenzisa lokhu njengewindi lokuxhumana nabadlali baseNdiya ekufundeni amasu okuluka ndawonye, ezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha.
Ngemenyu eyandisiwe yomkhiqizo wezokuvakasha, i-Zambia, nazo zonke izici zezwe okufanele uvakashelwe, ngokuqinisekile izodlula isibalo sabavakashi abafikayo abayisigidi ngonyaka.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- From the mighty snow-capped Himalayas of Kashmir in the north, to the sky-blue seas of Kanyakumari in the south, the verdant deltas of Sunderbans in the east, the world’s largest protected eco-and-game reserve, to the historic forts and shrines of Rajasthan to the west, India has everything that the footloose traveller would find irresistible to explore.
- Ukuze umkhakha wezokuvakasha uthuthuke, uHulumeni waseZambia ukunaka ngokukhethekile ukuthuthukiswa kwe-National Tourism Development Master Plan- okuwumbhalo oluhlaza ochaza amasu okuqinisekisa ingcebo yezomnotho kwezokuvakasha.
- Njengoba ukuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda enganele bekulokhu kunciphisa ubungako bokuthuthukiswa komkhiqizo wezokuvakasha, indlela ye-PPP ingasetshenziswa njengendawo yokuhlangana ukuze kuvuswe iqhaza lezinkampani ezizimele ekubumbeni ezokuvakasha kwezokwelapha eZambia, njengoba kwenzeka eNdiya.
