Obekekileyo, uMnumzana Marthinus Van Schalkwyk uthethe kumsitho wokuphehlelelwa kweNgqungquthela yezoKhenketho ye-E-Tourism ka-2013 eCTICC, eKapa malunga nobuchwephesha – obunceda ukhenketho nokukhuthaza ukukhula okuqhubekayo.
Kulinyhweba ngenene ukuthetha nawe kwiNgqungquthela yesi-6 yoNyaka ye-E-tourism Africa 2013. Njengecandelo lehlabathi, ukhenketho lukhule ngokumandla kule minyaka ingamashumi amathandathu idlulileyo. Ngowe-1950, kwakukho abakhenkethi abasuka kumazwe ngamazwe abazizigidi ezingama-25 kuphela ehlabathini lonke. Ngo-2012, icandelo lezokhenketho liphumelele inqanaba lesigidi sesigidi sokufika kwamanye amazwe, kunye ne-1 yetriliyoni engazange ibonwe ngaphambili kwiirisithi zokhenketho. Silindele izigidi ezingama-350 zabakhenkethi abatsha abafikayo bamazwe ngamazwe ngo-2020, kwaye ngo-2030, silindele abafikayo ukuba babe phezulu kwi-1,8 yeebhiliyoni.
Kwaye uninzi lokukhula olutsha luya kuvela kunye nokuya kwiimarike ezikhulayo. Xa ndicinga ngerekhodi lethu lomkhondo eMzantsi Afrika, ndikwenza oko ndisazi kakuhle ukuba kufuneka sisoloko sisenza izinto ezintsha ukuze sihlale siphambi komdlalo ngamaxesha onke.
Izinga leenguqu kunye notshintsho kwicandelo lezokhenketho, oko kukuthi ngokwemiqathango yethekhinoloji, alizange libonwe ngaphambili, kwaye alibonisi zimpawu zokuhla.
Okomzuzwana ndingathanda ukuba uqwalasele oku kulandelayo:
· Ehlabathini elinabantu abazibhiliyoni ezisi-7, i-⅓ sele ikwi-intanethi, uninzi lwabo lusuka kumazwe asakhasayo.
· E-Afrika, isiqingatha sebhiliyoni sabantu abanokuqhagamshelwa kumalungiselelo okuhamba ngeemfonomfono.
· Kuthathe unomathotholo iminyaka engama-38 ukufikelela kubasebenzisi abazizigidi ezingama-50
· Kuthathe iminyaka eli-12 umabonwakude ukufikelela kubasebenzisi abazizigidi ezingama-50
· Nangona kunjalo, kuthathe i-Facebook iminyaka eyi-3.5 ukufikelela kubasebenzisi abazizigidi ezingama-50
· Kuthathe uTwitter iminyaka emi-3 ukufikelela kubasebenzisi abazizigidi ezingama-50
· Kuthathe uYouTube unyaka omnye ukufikelela kubasebenzisi abazizigidi ezingama-1
· Kuthathe uGoogle iminyaka eyi-0.5 ukufikelela kubasebenzisi abazizigidi ezingama-50
UGordon Wilson (i-CEO kunye noMongameli) we-Travelport, i-aggregator ehamba phambili yohambo kunye nenkonzo yokukhangela kunye nokubhukisha, uya kukuxelela ukuba inkampani yakhe isebenza ngaphezu kweebhiliyoni zentengiselwano ngosuku, 24/7, kumazwe angama-170 - kwaye ngokwenza njalo, baqhuba iipetabytes ezimbalwa zolwazi ngomzuzwana. Khawube nomfanekiso woku: Ipetabyte ilingana malunga nezigidi ezingama-500 zefloppy disks ezindala esasizisebenzise kwiikhompyuter kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo, okanye malunga nama-500 eebhiliyoni zamaphepha ombhalo oqhelekileyo oshicilelweyo - zonke zigqityiwe ngomzuzwana.
Namhlanje, amaqonga entengiso yedijithali kunye namajelo afakwe kuyo yonke inkalo yeshishini lezoKhenketho lilonke. I-Digital yinxalenye yazo zonke iinzame zentengiso yendawo ekusingwa kuyo, ivumela iindawo zokusingwa ukuba zibandakanyeke ngokuthe ngqo nabasenokuba ngabakhenkethi kunye nokunxibelelana namaqabane orhwebo.
Ukuhamba kunye nokhenketho ngamava omntu kwaye ngoko ke, amakhonkco omntu abantu abakhethayo ukwenza okwenziwa yithekhnoloji, ifuthe umsebenzi okhulayo kwiiplatifti zedijithali kunye nezentlalo. Oku ke kusebenza njengesikhumbuzo esithe rhoqo sonxibelelwano lokwenyani nolwenyani olusidibanisayo sonke njengoluntu olunye lwehlabathi.
NgoKhenketho lwaseMzantsi Afrika siyaqhubeleka ukuhlaziya nokucokisa yonke imisebenzi yethu yokuthengisa ukuze senze abakhenkethi abaninzi nangakumbi abasuka kwihlabathi jikelele bathathele ingqalelo indawo ekusingwa kuyo uMzantsi Afrika ngaphezu kwayo nayiphi na enye. I-SAT ke ngoko ingamandla ethu okuthengisa, kunye nomgcini we-brand yethu yehlabathi jikelele kwihlabathi. Sixelela ihlabathi ngendawo ekuyiwa kuyo emangalisa ngokwenene, enabantu abafudumeleyo, imbonakalo enomtsalane nexabiso elingenakuthelekiswa nanto lemali. Sithatha lo myalezo, kwi-intanethi nangaphandle kweintanethi, siwuse kubathengi behlabathi nakumawaka ngokwenyani amahlakani orhwebo kwihlabathi jikelele.
Sisebenzisa iinkonzo zewebhu ukuhlaziya, ukwazisa kunye nokuqeqesha urhwebo lokuhamba kwihlabathi jikelele, kwindawo ekusingwa kuyo eMzantsi Afrika. Ukubonisa- ngaphezu kwe-14 000 yemibutho yorhwebo ethathe inxaxheba kwinkqubo yethu ye-intanethi ebizwa ngokuba yi-“SA Specialist” phakathi kuka-Epreli ukuya kuJulayi kulo nyaka kuphela. Sikwaqhuba amaphulo abanzi kwiiwebhusayithi eziphambili zamaqabane eendaba zehlabathi njengeNational Geographic kunye neCNN.
UKhenketho lwaseMzantsi Afrika luyazingca ngokuba ngomnye woMbutho weNtengiso ngeNdawo yokuFikela ekwi-intanethi kwihlabathi jikelele namhlanje. Ukwenza umzekelo, ukukhula kwabantu abasebenzisa i-Expedia ukubhukisha uhambo lwabo lokuya eMzantsi Afrika kukhule ngama-32% ukusuka ngoJanuwari ukuya kuJuni ka-2013, xa kuthelekiswa nexesha elifanayo kunyaka ophelileyo. Izinga lokukhula kwe-Expedia lokubhukisha ekhaya linyuke nge-53% ukusuka ngoJanuwari ukuya kuJuni wama-2013 xa kuthelekiswa nexesha elifanayo kunyaka ophelileyo. Ezi zizalathisi ezibalulekileyo kwaye andithandabuzi ukuba ukukwazi kwethu ukuba sesichengeni kumazinga okukhula afana nala kunganceda ishishini lethu ukuya phambili.
Ukhenketho lube licandelo elibalulekileyo kuqoqosho lwehlabathi, kwaye ukuzinikela kwethu okufanayo ekwandiseni nasekuphuculeni ngakumbi imisebenzi yethu eqhubekayo yedijithali sesinye sezitshixo zokunyusa ukukhula okuza kwenza uMzantsi Afrika ube phakathi kweendawo ekusingwa kuzo ezingama-20 eziPhezulu ehlabathini ngowama-2020.
Akukho mathandabuzo ukuba itekhnoloji iguqula imbonakalo yomhlaba ngonaphakade kwaye amathuba alele ngaphakathi kolu tshintsho maninzi - okt iimarike zisondele kunangaphambili, igama le-cyberpace-ngomlomo ngaphezulu kweentambo zefiber optic yinyani, ii-e-visa kunye ne-e- iipaspoti eziqulethe yonke idatha yakho yebhayometriki zikufutshane nje kwikona, ukuguqulelwa kwe-semantic kunye ne-avatars kunokusidibanisa ngokukhawuleza nabathengi ngeendlela ezintsha, kwaye i-geo-location kunye nonxibelelwano olusondeleyo ludala ukukhula okutsha kunye namathuba oshishino.
Kodwa, masingathandi amathuba onxibelelwano lwe-hyper. Kwakhona khumbula ukubuza malunga ne-hyper-vulnerabilities kwi-horizon.
Uqhagamshelo lwe-Hyper luya kuphazamisa iimodeli ezininzi zangoku zoshishino, kwaye kuphela abo bakwishishini lethu abahamba ngokukhawuleza ekuqaliseni izinto ezintsha baya kuhlala bekhuphisana kwixesha labantu bedijithali. Kweli lizwe linxibelelene kakhulu, kufuneka sisebenze nzima kunangaphambili ukulawula umxholo. Ixesha lokwenyani lemingcipheko yegama elinxulunyaniswa nemithombo yeendaba zentlalo kunye nokwandiswa kwe-intanethi kuyo yonke intshukumo yethu inkulu kunangaphambili. Abakhenkethi bafuna ukukhululeka kunye nokwaneliseka - kwaye bayazi ukuba kukho iindlela zokucofa nje. Isibini kwisithathu sabantu kwilizwekazi lethu nangoku banokufikelela kwii-smartphones. Kufuneka samkele ukuba baxhotyisiwe ngakumbi kunangaphambili ukuze babe sembindini wokwenziwa kwezigqibo ngokhetho lohambo nokhenketho, ukwenziwa ngokwezifiso kunye nokuyilwa kwamava okwenene. Kwaye xa benamava amabi, baya kwabelana ngezi ngoko nangoko kwaye rhoqo. Kodwa kukwakho nezinye iziphazamiso ezinkulu ezinokuthi zibekho kwixesha lokuxhomekeka komnye, ukudityaniswa korhwebo lwehlabathi kunye 'nedatha enkulu'. Ezi zikwabandakanya ukuphazamiseka okunokwenzeka koqoqosho olusekelwe kwifu, kunye nemiba yokuthembela kukhuseleko lwedatha.
Khawufan’ ucinge, umzekelo, ukuba kuya kwenzeka ntoni xa iinkqubo zokukhangela inqwelo-moya ziphethwa ngabagrogrisi be-cyber kunye namawaka eenqwelo-moya ezisemoyeni, nto leyo ngoku exakeke ziingqondo zethu kwiiforam ezininzi zamazwe ngamazwe. Ngokunjalo, ishishini lethu lingafumana ilahleko enkulu ukuba i-Intanethi, iinkqubo zokubhukisha izithuthi zomoya okanye iinkqubo zezimali zisilela nokuba yiveki okanye ezimbini phambi kokutshatyalaliswa kwe-cyber.
Ukuqukumbela, ukhangelo lokuhamba nge-intanethi kuqikelelwa ukuba luza kuqhubeka lukhula ngesantya esikhawulezayo kuba izisombululo zedijithali zibaluleka kulo naluphi na unxibelelwano lwabathengi ecaleni kwekhonkco lexabiso lokhenketho. Kufuneka ke ngoko sigxile kwipali yenjongo ehlala itshintsha kwaye siziqhelanise nayo ukuze siqinisekise ukuba sifumana inzuzo ephezulu.
Ndininqwenelela iNgqungquthela enika umdla nenemveliso.
