Siyazamkela iinzame zikaRhulumente zokuvula iThailand kodwa imigaqo kunye nesoftware yokufumana ipasi ayikasetyenziswa ngokwaneleyo”.

Ndambuza ukuba yintoni ayibonayo njengowona mceli mngeni mkhulu ngoku ekukhuthazeni ukhenketho eThailand? Uphendule wathi: “Kukho unxibelelwano loluntu oluninzi oluphikisanayo okanye olungachanekanga. Ugonyo luqhuba kakuhle kodwa hayi kuyo yonke indawo. Asikafikeleli kumanqanaba akhuselekileyo emihlambi kwamanye amaphondo”, utshilo uMongameli uWolfgang. 

Wongeze wathi, “Ishishini alizange lisebenzise ixesha lokuphumla le-Covid ukugxila kunye nokufaka iimveliso zokhenketho ezizinzileyo ukukhusela ikamva labantwana bethu. Umzekelo, ndihlala eKrabi kwaye sinezikhephe ezininzi ezisebenzisa iindlela zethu zamanzi kunye nohambo oluya esiqithini kunyaka oqhelekileyo. Urhulumente kufuneka akhuthaze ezothutho zokhenketho ngombane elwandle, emilanjeni nasechibini,” utshilo.

Ukuhambisa ingxoxo kuzwelonke ndambuza ukuba yintoni ezakutshintsha kukhenketho olujikeleze iThailand? Waphendula wathi, “Ngokwenene akukho nto iza kutshintsha. IPhuket iyakukhokela uninzi lokhenketho oluninzi kunye namava akumgangatho ophezulu kwaye ifumane ingqwalasela ye-TAT. I-Pattaya ilwela ukusinda kunye nesazisi se-PR. I-Hua Hin, iChiang Mai kunye neSamui ziya kuqhubeka nokutsala umgangatho weemarike zesivuno esiphezulu, zasekhaya kunye nezamazwe ngamazwe. I-Krabi inesakhono esikhulu sokhenketho oluzinzileyo kodwa ifuna inkxaso engaphezulu ye-TAT. Kwakhona i-TCEP kufuneka ikhuthaze kwaye ixhase iziganeko ze-MICE ezincitshiswe ngekhabhoni ngo-2022, "utshilo uWolfgang. 

Ukufika kwindawo ekuyiwa kuyo yinxalenye yohambo. I-TG ibhengeze ukucuthwa kwezithuthi zayo ezithengisa iinqwelomoya ezidala ezingama-42 kunye neenqwelomoya eziqeshiweyo. Ndibuze uMongameli uWolfgang Grimm ukuba ulubone njani olu khenketho luchaphazela ukhenketho lwaseThailand? “I-TG idlale indima ebalulekileyo ye-interline kuzo zonke iinkampani zeenqwelomoya zamazwe ngamazwe kodwa imbali yangqina ukuba ulawulo lwazo oludala nolutsha alunakuzuza ngeniso. Badinga isinhanha esisisityebi (ngethemba lokuba eThai) ukuze balawule ngokupheleleyo kwaye baphinde basungule i-Airline ngenxa ye-Thailand,” utshilo uMongameli weSizwe we-Skål.
