Iinkosi zezoKhenketho eHong Kong ziye zachitha iziphakamiso zokuba iingxabano eziqhubekayo phakathi kwabahlali kunye nabahambi bamazwe ngamazwe kwiminyaka yamuva ziya kuthintela iindwendwe ezivela kwilizwe.
Kunyaka ophelileyo, abakhenkethi abazizigidi ezingama-28.1 batyelele eHong Kong - iipesenti ezingama-67 yenani lilonke labatyeleli, utshilo uGreg So, unobhala wezoRhwebo kunye nophuhliso loqoqosho kurhulumente wolawulo olukhethekileyo.
Ilizwekazi libe ngowona mthombo mkhulu wabakhenkethi baseHong Kong, wathi, kwaye inani labakhenkethi esixekweni liyakhula.
“Ngokuvulwa kwezibuko lethu leenqanawa zokuhamba ngenqanawa kulo nyaka uzayo, silindele ukunika abakhenkethi bamazwe ngamazwe ukhetho oluninzi,” utshilo.
UJoseph Tung, umlawuli olawulayo weBhunga lezoKhenketho laseHong Kong, uthe ukholelwa ukuba umzi-mveliso wezokhenketho wesixeko kufuneka ubulele urhulumente ophambili ngo-2003 xa iHong Kong “yayiphantse yafa” ngenxa yokuqhambuka kweSARS.
“Akukho mntu wayeze kutyelela eHong Kong ngelo xesha. Amanye amazwe ayesoyika ukuba abakhenkethi baseHong Kong abaphumayo baza kusasaza esi sifo. Besikhathazeke ngokwenene,” utshilo.
Xa urhulumente oyintloko wagqiba kwelokuba avumele abakhenkethi abavela kumazwe angaphandle abasuka kwezinye izixeko ukuba batyelele eHong Kong ngaphandle kokuba kunye namaqela abakhenkethi ngoJulayi 2003, oko kwabakhuthaza ngoko nangoko ukhenketho.
NgoAgasti 2003, abakhenkethi abangaphezu kwama-946,000 43 batyelela eHong Kong, ulwando lwama-XNUMX ekhulwini kwithuba elifanayo lonyaka ophelileyo, ngokutsho kwebhunga.
Impembelelo yabakhenkethi bamazwe angaphandle kwesi sixeko ibe namandla kakhulu. Abantu abaninzi abakwimizi-mveliso yohambo neyokuthengisa esixekweni bafunde ukuthetha isiMandarin.
“Naxa sisiya kuthenga, umthengisi, engakwazi ukusixelela kubakhenkethi belizwe, wayethetha nathi ngesiMandarin, endaweni yesiCanton,” watsho uGreg So, eqhula ukuba ufunde isiMandarin ngokuyinxenye ngexesha lokuthenga.
Kodwa kunye nenani elikhulayo labakhenkethi, kukwakho inani elikhulayo leengxabano.
Ngo-2010, u-Chen Youming, oneminyaka engama-65, owayengumdlali weqela lesizwe le-ping-pong, wahlaselwa yintliziyo waza wafa xa waphoqeleka ukuba athenge ngumkhokeli wokutyelela ongavumelekanga eHong Kong.
Kunyaka ophelileyo, omnye umkhenkethi uye wabandakanyeka kungquzulwano lomlomo nolomzimba nabakhenkethi abathathu bamazwe angaphandle. Iingxelo zathi umkhenkethisi wakhokelela iqela lamalungu angama-33 kwivenkile yamatye anqabileyo, kodwa akukho namnye kwiqela elithenge nantoni na ngexesha lokuhlala kweeyure ezimbini. Umkhenkethisi waqalisa ukubakrwelela.
Kwakhona kulo nyaka uphelileyo, ividiyo ebonisa owasetyhini welizwekazi kunye nabahlali abambalwa baseHong Kong bexambulisana kwindlela engaphantsi yaya kwi-intanethi. Eli bhinqa lalivumele umntwana walo ukuba atye kuloliwe ohamba ngaphantsi komhlaba, nto leyo engavumelekanga eHong Kong. Le vidiyo ibangele ingxoxo eshushu kwi-intanethi.
Amagqabantshintshi eendaba athi ukunyuka kwenani leengxabano yindlela entsha. Kodwa uTung uthe ezi ziganeko ziimeko nje ezizimeleyo.
Ibhunga lenza konke okusemandleni alo ukulawula ishishini kunye nabakhenkethisi ukunqanda izehlo ezinje ngokungcolisa igama laseHong Kong, utshilo.
Ubuncinci abakhokeli babakhenkethi abasixhenxe baye banqunyanyiswa iilayisensi zabo, utshilo. I-arhente yokuhamba eqeshe umkhokeli wabakhenkethi ongenalayisenisi oye wanyanzela uChen Youming ukuba athenge ilahlekelwe ilayisenisi yeshishini, utshilo uTung.
Iimfonomfono zivuliwe ukuze kubhalwe izikhalazo zabakhenkethi. Inani lezikhalazo lehle ngeepesenti ezingama-40 kwiinyanga ezintlanu zokuqala kulo nyaka xa kuthelekiswa nexesha elifanayo kunyaka ophelileyo, utshilo.
UTung uthe unethemba lokuba urhulumente ophakathi uza kuvumela abemi bezixeko ezininzi zomhlaba ukuba batyelele iHong Kong ngaphandle kokujoyina amaqela abakhenkethi.
Sithetha nje, abemi bezixeko ezingama-49 ezikhulu banokuya eHong Kong ngaphandle kokungenela amaqela abakhenkethi.
