Isigameko esiyinhlekelele eGeorge asigcinanga nje ngokuba nomphumela wokuwa kwebhilidi kodwa siveze nomkhuba okhathaza kakhulu: ubugqila besimanje.
Imibiko ikhomba ukuthi abaqashi abaningi eNingizimu Afrika baxhaphaza abantu bangaphandle abaphelelwe ithemba abavela emazweni angomakhelwane abangenazo izincwadi ezifanele, ezibafaka emisebenzini eshibhile nezimo zokusebenza ezimbi, ngesikhathi esifanayo bebiza abantu baseNingizimu Afrika njengabavilaphayo nabangasebenzi.
Indawo okwakhiwe kuyo le nhlekelele bekugcwele abantu bakwamanye amazwe, okuhlanganisa nentsha nabesifazane, bonke kubikwa ukuthi bebehola imali encane ka-R80 kuphela ngosuku.
Lokhu kuxhashazwa kwabasebenzi abasengcupheni sekunesikhathi eside kukhathaza abantu baseNingizimu Afrika bezwakalisa izikhalo zabo, baze baxoshwa basolwa ngokucwasa.
Njengoba ingelinye lamazinga aphezulu okuntuleka kwemisebenzi emhlabeni wonke, ukuthembela kweNingizimu Afrika emisebenzini eshibhile yangaphandle kukhulisa ukungezwani futhi kubhebhethekise ukungabi nabulungisa. Ukuwa kwesakhiwo eGeorge kuye kwagqamisa imiphumela emibi yalokhu kuxhashazwa.
Izikhulu zokulawulwa kwezinhlekelele zaseGarden Route zikhiphe isicelo esiphuthumayo sokusekelwa, ikakhulukazi abeluleki abahlukumezekile, izazi zokusebenza kwengqondo, noma abefundisi abakhuluma kahle izilimi ezikhulunywa imiphakathi ethintekile, njengesiChewa, isiPutukezi, nesiShona.
Imindeni eminingi ethintekile idabuka eMozambique, eMalawi naseZimbabwe, okukhombisa ukuthi le nhlekelele isezingeni lomhlaba.
Isibalo sale nhlekelele siyamangaza, njengoba sekufe abantu abangu-21 okuqinisekisiwe kanti abangu-32 basavaleleke ngaphansi kwemfucumfucu.
Ukuthululwa kosizo oluvela emiphakathini yasekhaya neyamazwe ngamazwe kube kuhle, njengoba izikhulu zokulawulwa kwezinhlekelele zizwakalise ukubonga ngosizo olunikeziwe.
Njengoba imizamo yokuhlenga nokuhlenga iqhubeka, kunesidingo esikhulayo sabasebenzi bosizo lwezengqondo ukuze basize abasindile kanye nemindeni elinde izindaba zabathandekayo babo.
Inqubo enzima yokuhlonza izisulu kanye nokuhlinzeka ngosizo igcizelela ukubaluleka kokusabela okuhlelekile okuvela kubabambiqhaza abahlukahlukene.
Khonamanjalo, uNgqongqoshe wezemiSebenzi yoMphakathi, uMnuz Sihle Zikalala, ehambisana nethimba longoti bemboni yezokwakha, kulindeleke ukuthi bavakashele eGeorge ukuze benze uphenyo olunzulu mayelana nokubhidlika.
Lo mgomo wokuthola amaqiniso uhlose ukucacisa ngeqhaza lochwepheshe ababambe iqhaza kuphrojekthi yokwakhiwa okungekuhle, okubandakanya abahloli bomthamo, abahleli bedolobha, abasebenza kwezemvelo kanye nabahloli bezindawo.
Njengoba isizwe silila izimpilo ezilahlekile futhi sibhekene nemiphumela yale nhlekelele, kunekhwelo elihlangene lokuziphendulela, ubulungisa, kanye nezinguquko ukuze kubhekwane nezinkinga zesistimu ezivumele ubugqila banamuhla ukuba buphumelele ngaphandle kokulawulwa.
Kungemizamo ebumbene kuphela lapho iNingizimu Afrika ingadlulela ekusasa lapho bonke abasebenzi bephathwa ngesizotha nenhlonipho, kungakhathaliseki ubuzwe babo noma isimo sabo sokuthuthela kwelinye izwe.
