IHawaii ithintela ukuba ne-shark fin

I-HONOLULU - I-US $ 48-a-plate shark fin ibe sisidlo esithandwayo sokubhiyozela i-80th yokuzalwa kunye ne-feti ngaphandle kwe-VIPs edolophini ukususela kwi-restaurant yase-Vienna Hou yaseTshayina yavulwa kwiminyaka eyi-25 eyadlulayo.
Kodwa abathengi beKirin Restaurant abazukutya ngolo hlobo ukuqala nge-1 kaJulayi, 2011, xa iHawaii iba lilizwe lokuqala elizweni ukuvala ukuba neempiko zikakrebe. Urhulumente uzama ukunceda ukuthintela ukuloba ngokugqithisileyo kunye nokuphela kookrebe kwihlabathi jikelele.

“Kukho into eza kulahleka,” utshilo uHou, okhule ebukele utata wakhe ethengisa i-shark fin njengenxalenye yeshishini lakhe lokurhweba ngokutya kwaselwandle eHong Kong. "Iindawo zokutyela zaseTshayina eziphucukileyo - zonke zikhonza i-shark fin."

URhuluneli uLinda Lingle ngolweSihlanu utyikitye umthetho oyilwayo othintela ukuba nokuphathwa, ukuthengiswa okanye ukusasazwa kwamaphiko kakrebe. Lo mthetho uyilwayo upasise iNdlu yesizwe kunye neSenethi ngenkxaso ebanzi ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka.

Lo mthetho ubangele ukukhalaza kuluntu lwaseTshayina olukhulu lwaseHawaii - ngaphezulu kwe-13 yepesenti yabemi belizwe ngamaTshayina okanye inxalenye yamaTshayina. Abaninzi bajonga i-shark fin njengento emnandi kunye nenxalenye ebalulekileyo yenkcubeko yamaTshayina.

Ukuvalwa kwelizwe kuza njengoko ilizwe elixhomekeke kukhenketho lilindele ukwanda kwabatyeleli baseTshayina abatyebileyo.

IiRestaurateur zithi malunga neshumi elinesibini lamaziko eHawaii asebenzela i-shark fin, enganambithekiyo njengeyodwa. Incasa kwizitya ezityiwayo zikakrebe zivela kwizithako eziphekwe ngazo, nokuba yisosi etyebileyo ephakelwa ngayo epleyitini okanye kwinyama yehagu enencasa kunye nesiseko senkukhu kwisobho ye-shark fin.

Abanye abantu bayityela izibonelelo zempilo, besithi ilungile kumathambo, izintso kunye nemiphunga kwaye inceda ukunyanga umhlaza. I-Shark fin ikwagqalwa njengophawu lwesimo kwiindawo zokutyela ezikumgangatho ophezulu, isitya sokuchukumisa okanye ukunyanga iindwendwe. EKirin, kwisitrato esixakekileyo kufutshane neDyunivesithi yaseHawaii, isuphu enye etyiwayo yi-US$17.

EHong Kong, iindawo zokutyela eziphezulu zinokubiza i-US$1,000 yeprimiyamu yeefin zikakrebe.

“Andicingi ukuba kufuneka uthi akufanelekanga ukuba nephiko likakrebe,” utshilo uJohnson Choi, umongameli weHong Kong China Hawaii Chamber of Commerce. "Amaphiko ookrebe ayinxalenye yenkcubeko yokutya - amaTshayina anenkcubeko yokutya iminyaka engaphezu kwama-5,000."

Iingcali zokusingqongileyo zithi esi siko sikhokelela ekuphelisweni okuyingozi kookrebe kwihlabathi jikelele.

Ingxelo yonyaka ophelileyo yeInternational Union for the Conservation of Nature iqikelela ukuba ama-32 ekhulwini ookrebe olwandle abasengozini yokuphela ngenxa yokuloba ngokugqithiseleyo.

Abenzi bomthetho baseHawaii beva ubungqina bokuba ookrebe babulawa ngenxa yamaphiko abo ngesantya esizizigidi ezingama-89 ngonyaka.

“Asingomcimbi walapha. Ngumcimbi wamazwe ngamazwe,” utshilo uSen. Clayton Hee, uD-Kahuku-Kaneohe, umxhasi webhili yaseHawaii.

Iindawo zokutyela ezinikezela ngeefins ziya kuba kude kube nguJulayi uzayo ukuba ziqhube kuluhlu lwazo. Emva koko, abo babanjwe benesono kuya kufuneka bahlawule phakathi kwe-US$5,000 ukuya kwi-US$15,000 ngenxa yolwaphulo-mthetho lokuqala. Ityala lesithathu liya kukhokelela kwisohlwayo esiphakathi kwe-US$35,000 ukuya kwi-US$50,000 ukuya kutsho kunyaka entolongweni.

Yenzelwe ukuba ihambe inyathelo elingaphaya kunomthetho wangaphambili owawujolise ekulawuleni amaphiko ookrebe - isenzo sokusika amaphiko kookrebe elwandle kunye nokulahla izidumbu zabo elwandle - ngokuvala ukumisa amaphiko kakrebe kumazibuko aseHawaii.

Amatshantliziyo olondolozo lwe-Shark athi anethemba lokuba umthetho ukhuthaza amanye amazwe kunye norhulumente womdibaniso ukuba alandele lo mzekelo.

"Lo ngumthetho oyilwayo," utshilo uMarie Levine, umseki kunye nomlawuli olawulayo weZiko loPhando likaShark ePrinceton, NJ "Oku kubaluleke kakhulu kulondolozo ookrebe."

Iinzame zolondolozo ziye zaphazamiseka ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka xa iinzame zokukhusela iintlobo ezintandathu zookrebe phantsi kweNgqungquthela yamazwe angama-175 yoRhwebo lweZilwanyana eziseMngciphekweni, okanye iCITES, zasilela ngoMatshi.

Amandla omthetho anokuba ngumfuziselo onikwe iHawaii yimarike encinci ye-shark fin, ngakumbi xa ithelekiswa neHong Kong. I-IUCN iqikelela ukuba iHong Kong ilawula ubuncinane ama-50 ekhulwini yaye mhlawumbi nama-80 ekhulwini orhwebo lwamaphiko ookrebe ehlabathini.
