Uphando olwenziwa nguGoogle lucebisa ukuba iindwendwe zamazwe ngamazwe ezizimase iNdebe yeHlabathi yeSoka nazo ziceba ukubona indawo eMzantsi Afrika.
Uphononongo, kwezona ndawo bezikhangelwa kakhulu zabakhenkethi eMzantsi Afrika kulo nyaka uphelileyo, lufumene unxulumano olumandla phakathi kwamazwe aphezulu akhangela iindawo zoMzantsi Afrika kunye namazwe athenga awona matikiti eNdebe yeHlabathi.
UGoogle ufumanise ukuba i-India, i-UK, i-US, iJamani kunye ne-Zimbabwe yayingamazwe aphambili akhangela “ukhenketho loMzantsi Afrika” kwiwebhu.
Amanani ekomiti eququzelelayo yeFifa kumazwe athenga awona matikiti maninzi abeke i-US kwindawo yokuqala, ilandelwa yi-UK, iJamani, i-Australia kunye neBrazil.
Ezona ndawo zikhangelwa kakhulu ngokulandelelana zezi: Kruger National Park; iGadi Route; Elunxwemeni lwelizwe; eRobben Island; USingasiqithi weKapa; iBlyde River Canyon; eCape Winelands; Kwiilwandle zaseThekwini; Indlu kaMandela kunye neMyuziyam yoCalucalulo.
Ukhenketho lwasekhaya lungathatha indawo yangasemva ngexesha letumente yebhola ekhatywayo, nangona kunjalo. Inkampani yabacebisi nophando, iGrant Thornton, esanda kwenza uphando olugunyaziswe ngurhulumente malunga namaxabiso eendawo zokuhlala ngexesha leNdebe yeHlabathi, ithe kwinyanga ephelileyo ukhenketho lwasekhaya lusenokwenzeka ukuba luthambe kobu busika, nanjengoko abalandeli bamazwe angaphandle begxothe abakhenkethi balapha ngexesha letumente yebhola ekhatywayo.
Yatsho ukuba abahambi beshishini banokuhlehlisa izicwangciso zabo zokuhamba ekhaya de kube semva kweNdebe yeHlabathi kwaye iintsapho zinokuhlala ekhaya ngexesha leeholide zesikolo, ezicwangcisiweyo ngexesha lomdlalo.
Le nkampani ithi ilindele ukuba phakathi kwe-300000 kunye ne-480000 yabalandeli bangaphandle - i-151000 evela e-Afrika - ukuba bafike e-SA kwitumente, kwaye bachithe i-R8,5bn. Uqikelelo lwangaphambili lokuya kuthi ga kwi-750000 yeendwendwe kwiNdebe yeHlabathi ngoku kuthathwa njengento engenakwenzeka.
Uphononongo olwenziwa nguGrant Thornton lufumanise ukuba ngokuchaseneyo nentelekelelo, ama-74% eendawo zokuhlala zaseMzantsi Afrika azizange zibe namazinga okunyuka kakhulu kwiNdebe yeHlabathi.
Iindawo ezithandwa kakhulu kubakhenkethi basekhaya zifana kakhulu nezo zikhethwe ngabakhenkethi bangaphandle. Kunyaka ophelileyo, uGoogle ubambisene noKhenketho lwaseMzantsi Afrika ukuvota iindawo zokhenketho ezidume kakhulu kubakhenkethi basekhaya, ekugqibeleni bakhetha ezingama-20.
Ezo ndawo ziquka iKruger National Park; iBlyde River Canyon; Incopho yeCathedral; i-Addo Elephant Park; Simon's Town kunye neBoulders Beach kunye neMyuziyam yocalucalulo.
