Isifundazwe saseYucatán, eMexico, sithathe isinyathelo esiqinile sokuqinisa isikhundla saso njengenye yezindawo ezibaluleke kakhulu zokuvakasha ngemikhumbi eGulf of Mexico. Emhlanganweni osezingeni eliphezulu owawusezikhungweni zeNational Port System Administration (Asipona) eProgreso, abamele iFlorida-Caribbean Cruise Association (FCCA), abaphathi abavela emigwaqweni emikhulu yokuvakasha ngemikhumbi yamazwe ngamazwe, kanye neziphathimandla ezivela kuzo zonke izigaba ezintathu zikahulumeni bahlaziye izindlela zokwandisa umsebenzi wokuvakasha ngemikhumbi kanye nezinzuzo zawo emiphakathini yasendaweni.
Umhlangano, owawuhanjelwe nguMbusi uJoaquín Díaz Mena, wasebenza ukwethula inqubekela phambili yephrojekthi enkulu yokwandisa nokwenza ichweba laseProgreso libe sesimanje, iphrojekthi edinga ukutshalwa kwezimali okuphelele okungu-12.225 billion pesos futhi ehlose ukuheha imikhumbi yesizukulwane esisha, kanye nokwandisa umthamo wenkonzo yabagibeli.
Umhlangano obalulekile wekusasa lohambo lwemikhumbi eYucatán
Ngesikhathi seseshini, ubudlelwano buqiniswe nabameleli beRoyal Caribbean Group, Carnival Corporation, MSC Cruises, Margaritaville at Sea, kanye neNorwegian Cruise Line Holdings. UMongameli we-FCCA uMichele M. Paige uvume umsebenzi ohlanganisiwe weziphathimandla zikahulumeni nezechweba futhi wahalalisela uHulumeni Wesifundazwe ngemizamo yawo yokuthuthukisa izimo ezizokwandisa ukufika kwemikhumbi yezokuvakasha eYucatán . Uphinde wagcizelela ukubaluleka kokugcina umbuso uphambili ekuthathweni kwezinqumo zamasu embonini.
Abanye ababeyingxenye yomhlangano kwakuyinhloko ye-Secretariat of Tourism Development (Sefotur), uDarío Flota Ocampo; umqondisi jikelele we-Asipona Progreso, u-Admiral Jorge Carlos Tobilla Rodríguez; imeya yaseProgreso, u-Erick Rihani González; kanye nabamele umkhakha webhizinisi, njengomongameli we-Business Coordinating Council, uJosé Enrique Molina Casares, kanye nabaphathi abavela e-SSA Marine Mexico.
Ukwandiswa kwechweba laseProgreso: iphrojekthi ekhangayo
Iphrojekthi yokwandisa kanye nokuthuthukisa ichweba laseProgreso elinamanzi ajulile iyaqhubeka ngezigaba ezintathu. Esokuqala, esixhaswe uhulumeni wesifundazwe ngama-peso ayizigidigidi eziyi-1.630, sesivele siqediwe. Esesibili, ngokutshalwa kwezimali okuzimele kwama-peso ayizigidigidi eziyi-1.948, sihlanganisa ukwandiswa kwesiteshi sokuvakasha kanye nendawo yokumisa imikhumbi. Esesithathu, esiphethwe uhulumeni wobumbano, sihlanganisa ukwakhiwa kwamapulatifomu amabili azokwandisa indawo yechweba kusukela kumahektha angu-34 kuya kwangu-114.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, kwethulwe izinhlelo zokuhlinzeka ngezinsizakalo zokubeka imikhumbi emanzini (ukunikezwa kukaphethiloli, okuhlanganisa negesi yemvelo encibilikisiwe), ukwakhiwa kwesikhungo semikhumbi sokulungisa nokulungisa imikhumbi, kanye nokunikezwa kwemikhiqizo emisha yasendaweni emikhunjini. Lezi zinhlelo zihlose ukukhiqiza amathuba amasha ebhizinisi kanye nemisebenzi esifundeni.
Izibalo ezisekela ukukhula
Idatha eyethulwe ngesikhathi somhlangano iqinisekisa ukuthambekela okuhle kulo mkhakha. Phakathi kukaJanuwari noJulayi 2026, iYucatán ibhalise ukufika kwemikhumbi yomkhumbi engu-107 , uma kuqhathaniswa nabangu-94 ngesikhathi esifanayo ngo-2025, okumele ukwanda ngo-13,8%. Ngokuphathelene nabagibeli, inani lifinyelele ku-336.792, okungu-19,8% ngaphezu kwabangu-281.173 bonyaka odlule. Lezi zibalo zibonisa umthelela wamasu okukhushulwa kanye nokuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda.
Umsebenzi owandisiwe awugcini nje ngokuzuzisa imigwaqo yokudoba kodwa futhi nomnotho wendawo. Abathengisi, abanikazi bezindawo zokudlela, kanye nabahlinzeki bezinsizakalo eProgreso nakwamanye amadolobha asogwini bayakwamukela ukufika kwabagibeli abaningi bokudoba, abasebenzisa imikhiqizo kanye nezinsizakalo ngesikhathi sokuhlala kwabo.
Izinzuzo zomnotho wendawo
Ukuxhumana phakathi kweziphathimandla, abaqhubi bechweba, kanye nomkhakha ozimele kuhlose ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ukukhula kwezokuvakasha ngezikebhe kuveza imali engenayo ephezulu emindenini yaseYucatecan . Ukwandiswa kwechweba kulindeleke ukuthi kulivumele ukuthi likwazi ukusingatha abagibeli abafinyelela esigidini ngonyaka, okuphindwe kabili umthamo walo wamanje. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukudalwa kwendawo yokubeka imikhumbi kanye nokuhlinzekwa kwezinsizakalo zokuhlinzeka kuzovula amathuba amasha ebhizinisi ezinkampanini zendawo.
UMbusi uDíaz Mena ugcizelele ukuzimisela kukahulumeni wakhe ukusebenzisana eduze nezinkampani zemikhumbi ukuze kufakwe iProgreso ohambweni olwengeziwe. Umhlangano ne-FCCA nezinkampani ezihamba phambili embonini ungesinye isinyathelo esiholela kulolo hlangothi.
Ngalezi zenzo, iYucatán iqinisa isikhundla sayo njengomholi eCaribbean naseGulf of Mexico, iheha ukutshalwa kwezimali futhi idale amathuba emisebenzi. Ukubambisana phakathi kwemikhakha yomphakathi neyangasese kuzoba yisihluthulelo sokugcina lo mfutho nokukhulisa amandla eProgreso njengechweba lokuvakasha.
