U-Juergen Thomas Steinmetz usebenze ngokuqhubekayo kushishino lokhenketho kunye nokhenketho ukusukela xa wayekwishumi elivisayo eJamani, okokuqala njengearhente yohambo kwaye ngoku njengompapashi weyona ncwadi inempembelelo kakhulu nefundwa kakhulu kwezohambo nezokhenketho. UkwanguSihlalo we-International Council of Tourism Partners (ICTP).
Ukuzalwa kuka-Disemba 9, 1957, uThomas angaqwalaselwa njengomphefumlo ohamba-hambayo, kodwa kwangaxeshanye umntu osebenza nzima oye waba luphawu lweshishini leendaba zokuhamba nezokhenketho ngenxa yokuzibophelela emsebenzini wakhe.
Amava akhe abandakanya ukusebenza kunye nokusebenzisana kunye neeofisi zokhenketho zelizwe ezahlukeneyo kunye nemibutho engekho phantsi kukarhulumente, kunye nemibutho yabucala kunye nengenzi nzuzo, ekucwangciseni, ekuphumezeni, nasekulawuleni umgangatho woluhlu lwemisebenzi kunye neenkqubo ezinxulumene nokhenketho kunye nokhenketho, kuquka ukhenketho. imigaqo-nkqubo kunye nomthetho. Amandla akhe amakhulu abandakanya ulwazi oluninzi lokuhamba kunye nokhenketho ukusuka kwindawo yokujonga umnini weshishini labucala ophumeleleyo, izakhono zonxibelelwano ezigqwesileyo, ubunkokeli obuqinileyo, izakhono zonxibelelwano ezigqwesileyo, umdlali weqela owomeleleyo, ingqalelo kwiinkcukacha, intlonipho yokuthotyelwa kuyo yonke indawo elawulwayo. , kunye nezakhono zokucebisa kwiinkundla zezopolitiko nezingezizo ezezopolitiko ngokubhekiselele kwiinkqubo zokhenketho, imigaqo-nkqubo kunye nemithetho. Unolwazi oluthe kratya lweendlela ezikhoyo kwishishini kunye neendlela kwaye uyikhompyuter kunye ne-Intanethi.
Zeziphi izoyikiso abajamelene nazo ezindlini ezinzulu nezobuchwephesha kwezomkhukula kwimithombo yeendaba?
STEINMETZ: Andiqinisekanga ukuba ndiyawuqonda umbuzo wakho. Ndingacinga ngemingeni eliqela. Ngenxa yenani elikhulu lezinto ezithunyelwe kwimidiya yoluntu, amajelo eendaba obuchwephesha anezikhokelo zokuqinisekisa kunye nokulinganisa ulwazi kunokufuneka ukuba lusebenze kancinci. Imithombo yeendaba enzulu kufuneka icacise ukuba yahlukile kwimidiya yoluntu. Bafuna ukufumana umyalezo rhoqo ukuze bagcine indawo yabo njengomthombo weendaba onokuthenjwa.
Ngaba indlu yemithombo yeendaba yokuhamba nokhenketho kulula ukuyigcina, okanye ngaba uzinzo luba ngumbuzo?
STEINMETZ: Uzinzo luba ngumngeni kulo naliphi na ishishini. Ngenani lamajelo eendaba amatsha, imidiya yoluntu, kunye ne-Intanethi,¬ ingeniso yentengiso isezantsi kakhulu xa kuthelekiswa neminyaka nje edlulileyo. I-ETN, njengamanye amajelo eendaba, ijonge "ngaphandle kwebhokisi" amathuba engeniso kwaye ayithembeli kangako kwintengiso yeendaba.
Kutheni le nto ukhethe indlela enzima kangaka yokuhamba kunye nokwazisa ngeendaba zokhenketho, ngelixa abantu bathanda ukumamela nokufunda malunga nezopolitiko, iintlekele, njl. Ngaba akukho lula ukuthengisa kunee roses?
STEINMETZ: Siyayazi le nto. Amanani kunye neendaba zentlekele ziyathengisa. Sikwajonga izihloko eziphambili kunye namagama aphambili ukufumana abafundi abaninzi. Asizithengisi “iiroses” - amanqaku ethu abaluleke kakhulu kwaye ngamanye amaxesha ayadubula. “Iintyatyambo”
amanqaku ikakhulu apapasha.
Sitshele ukuba yeyiphi imibala oyithandayo kunye nokutya okuthandayo ukukutya.
STEINMETZ: NdiseHawaii, kwaye sinokutya okuninzi kwaseAsia. Ndiyayithanda iThai, iIndiya / iPakistani, kunye nokutya kwaseJapan. I-75% yento endiyidlayo ayikona ukutya kwam kwendabuko yaseJamani. Ndiyakuthanda ukutya okuneziqholo kunye nokutya okusanda kuphekwa. Andikho mkhulu kwii-buffets kunye nokutya okuphekwe kwangaphambili okanye ukutya okukhawulezayo. Ndiyakuthanda nokutya kwaseTaliyane, kodwa ugqirha wam wathi mandingakutyi kakhulu.
Thomas, nawuphina umyalezo onqwenela ukuwuthumela kumajelo osasazo kunye nabachaphazelekayo kwezokhenketho?
STEINMETZ: Ndikweli shishini ukusukela ngo-1978, kwaye ndiyalithanda. Ishishini lam ikwayinto endizithandayo. Andisokuze ndibe ngusozigidi, kodwa ukunxibelelana nabantu kwihlabathi jikelele kunye nomzi mveliso wethu kumnandi kakhulu. Icandelo elibalulekileyo lokugcina uxolo nokuqonda. Ezokhenketho zinganegalelo ekuqondeni umhlaba, kwilizwe elivulekileyo, nakwilizwe elinoxanduva.
Zithini iithagethi zakho ebomini? Waneliseke kangakanani ngomsebenzi wakho kunye nemeko ngokubanzi kwishishini lokhenketho?
STEINMETZ: Ndiyawuthanda umsebenzi wam. Ukwenza i-24/7/365 akuyona into endizisolayo ngayo. Ndenze abahlobo abaninzi kolu shishino, kwaye ndiyakuthanda ukudibana nabantu kwaye ndiwonwabele umsebenzi wam. Andizange ndicinge ukwenza enye into. Eyona nto ndijolise kuyo, ewe, kukuqala ukugcina imali yomhlala phantsi. Eli shishini ayilo shishini elihlawula kakhulu, ngenxa yoko kunokuba ngumceli mngeni ngamanye amaxesha.
Ukuba ndikunika iholide yenyanga enye, ungathanda ukuyichitha phi- yeyiphi indawo oya kuyo kwaye ngoba?
STEINMETZ: Ndingathanda ukuhlala ekhaya. Ndahamba iintsuku ezingama-170 kunyaka ophelileyo. Ndihlala kwesinye seziqithi ezintle emhlabeni. Ndinxiba iibhulukhwe ezimfutshane, iihempe neehempe imini yonke, kwaye jonga kolunye lolwandle oluhle onokulufumana naphi na. Xa ndihambahamba, ndonwabela izixeko ezikhulu ezinjengeJakarta, iBangkok, iBerlin, iLondon, neHong Kong-zizixeko endizithandayo. Ndingakonwabela imimandla esezintabeni. Uhambo lwamva nje oluya eNepal lwalunyango.
Enkosi kakhulu, Thomas, ngexesha lakho nodliwanondlebe. Enkosi kwakhona.
