Emva kweminyaka emininzi emininzi kwaye inzima kakhulu, uNepal uqala ukuziva unethemba elithile ngekamva layo, ubuncinane ngokwezokhenketho. Ngenyanga edlulileyo, urhulumente waseNepali uqale ukucwangcisa ikusasa lokuhamba kweli lizwe kwaye uthathe isinyathelo esibindileyo sokuvakalisa i-2018 "Ukutyelela umnyaka weNepal", kunye nenjongo evakalisiweyo yokutsala iindwendwe ezili-1.
Kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo, uluhlu lweentlekele zeeprogram eziphakamileyo lukhokelela ekuhlahleni okukhulu kwiindwendwe zaseNepal, indawo eyaziwayo yokuhamba kunye neentaba.
Ngokomzekelo, entwasahlobo ka-2014, i-avalanche ebulalayo kuMat. U-Everest uthe ububomi bee-porters ezili-16 basebenza apho, beza ukuphela ngokukhawuleza kweso sihlandlo sokunyuka xa iinkonzo zesikhokelo zorhwebo kunye nabasebenzi baseSherpa bexoshe imisebenzi. Kamva ewa, i-blizzard enkulu yahlasela isithili sase-Annapurna, ibanga ubomi bangaphezu kwe-40. Isiganeko esilandelayo salandelwa yindyikima enyantyikwano entwasahlobo ka-2015, eyabulala abantu abangaphezu kwe-9000 kulo lonke ilizwe, kwaye yabangela ukukhishwa kwesinye isikhathi sokunyuka kwi-Everest nakwezinye iintaba ezinkulu.
Njengomphumo walo mgca weengozi ezibuhlungu, icandelo lezokhenketho eNepal lithathile kakhulu. Ezinye iingxelo zibonisa ukuba liye lawa ngama-50 ekhulwini, okanye ngaphezulu. Oku kubangele ukuhamba kweendawo kunye neenkampani ezikhulayo ukuvalela iingcango zabo kwaye zishiye amawaka emsebenzini. Kubonakala ngathi njengoko ilizwe lizama ukuvuselela, iintwendwe zangaphandle zikhethile ukuhlala kude.
Kodwa, kukho ukukhanya kwithemba ekugqibeleni. Ukunyuka kwentwasahlobo ka-2016 kunye nexesha lokuhamba nge-Himalaya lihamba ngaphandle kwe-hitch, nangaphezulu kwama-550 ama-summari ayenzeka kwi-Everest kwiiveki zokugqibela zikaMeyi. Kwaye nangona iingxelo zibonisa ukuba inani leendwendwe zangaphandle lihlala lisuka kwiminyaka edlulileyo, abahambahamba baye baqala ukubuyela ngamanani amancinane, kodwa akhula ngokunyuka.
UkuKhenketho kwiNgxelo
Oku kunikwe abanye kwicandelo lezokhenketho laseNepali isizathu sokuba nethemba, kuquka uMongameli Bidya Devi Bhandari. Ngoku kutshatyalaliswa kwenkqubo entsha e-Nepal ejolise ukuqala ukunyusa abahambahamba ngeenombolo ezinkulu ngexesha le-2016/2017. Ithemba kukuba le nkqubo iya kuqalisa ukuvelisa iziqhamo ngo-2018 xa icandelo lokuhamba lilindele ukuhlawuleka ngokupheleleyo kwiinkalo zeminyaka embalwa edlulileyo.
Ngaphandle koko, uBhanari uthi usebenza kwisicwangciso seminyaka eli-10 seNewali ukuvakasha okuza kutyhola ikhosi kwikamva. Esi sicwangciso asiyi kubandakanya kuphela iindlela zokukhanga ezinye iindwendwe ezivela kumazwe azungezile kodwa nakwezinye iindawo zehlabathi. Urhulumente unethemba lokuba utyalo-mali ekuphuculeni izibonelelo zengingqi ngokunjalo, ukwenza kube lula ukuba abagibeli beentaba kunye nabahambahambayo bafumane iimvume, ukuphucula ukubikezelwa kwemozulu kwiindawo ezikude, ukwakha amaziko okuhlangula kwiindawo ze-Everest ne-Annapurna, kunye nokunye. Isicwangciso sasiza kubakhokelela ukulungiswa kweeNdawo zeMveli zeHlabathi ezonakaliswe kwindyikima, kunye nokwakhiwa kweemyuziyam ezintsha kunye nezinye izikhumbuzo zenkcubeko nezenkolo.
Icandelo lesicwangciso sokwenza iNepal ekhangele ngakumbi kubahambi kukuphucula ukhuseleko lokuhamba ngomoya apho.
Ukuthetha ngokwembali, ilizwe liye lafumana irekhodi elimnyama xa lifika kwiingozi zeenqwelo-moya, kodwa uBhandari uthemba ukuba utshintshe ukuba kuphunyezwe imigaqo nemigaqo eqinileyo. Kwakhona unethemba lokuphucula iinkqubo ze-radar ezisebenza ngaphakathi kweNepal ngokunjalo, ukuzisa i-teknoloji yamanje kwi-shishini. Ngaphezulu, uMongameli ulindele ukuphucula izakhiwo kwi-Airport ye-Tribhuvan International eK Kathmandu, kunye nokuphuka kwiindawo eziza kutshatyalaliswa kwiindawo ezinokhenketho kwezinye iindawo zokuvakasha ezithandwayo.
Ngaba Iziqinisekiso Zingazaliseka?
Konke oku kulungile kubahambi bafuna ukutyelela iNepal ngelixa elizayo, kodwa ezinye zezithembiso kufuneka zithathwe ngqolowa yetyuwa. Urhulumente apho ubizwa ngokuba yi-inefficient and corruption, ekhokelela abaninzi ukuba bazibuze ukuba uBhandari ngokwenene uthembele ekufezeni zonke izinto azicebileyo, okanye ukuba uthetha nje izinto ezifanelekileyo zokuncedisa imimoya yabasebenza kwicandelo lezokhenketho.
Kwixesha elidlulileyo, urhulumente waseNepali ukhanyise ukutshabalalisa izigidi zeedola, kwaye uye wahamba engenako ukubonisa oko. Ukuba ingaba le nto iya kuphinda ibonwe, kodwa ngoku ngaphezu kwamagosa aseNepali adinga ukugxila ekufezeni iinjongo zabo. Ixesha labo elizayo lezoqoqosho lixhomekeka kuyo, kwaye kuya kuba lihlazo ukuba baphinde baphinde baphinde baphinde baphinde.
