Kungani izimoto zikagesi ezithi 'Made in China' zithola ukuduma kuleli zwe lase-Afrika

EGhana, izwe laseNtshonalanga Afrika elinengqalasizinda yezokuthutha ebuthaka, imigwaqo enemigodi kanye nesiminyaminya sezimoto kuyikhanda elibuhlungu kubahlali basemadolobheni afana ne-Accra, inhloko-dolobha. I-"mota" ekhanyayo nesheshayo yaba khona, eyaziwa endaweni ngokuthi yi-"Okada". Abafowethu abancane be-"moo" badonsa abantu, balethe izimpahla, futhi bahambe kuwo wonke amagumbi edolobha namaphandle. Njengamanje, izimoto eziningi zikagesi ezenziwe ngamaShayina zijoyina leli qembu lamasosha "esithuthuthu", futhi kancane kancane ziba indawo ekhanyayo.

UJoseph Kolisho waseGhana ungumfana odilivayo we-Jumia, inkampani yendawo ye-e-commerce e-Afrika, futhi kufanele agcwalise inqwaba yama-oda ngaphansi kwelanga elishisayo nsuku zonke. Ezinyangeni eziyisithupha ezedlule, le nkampani yamnika imoto kagesi entsha ceke "eyenziwe eChina", okwenza umsebenzi wakhe waba lula. "Le moto kagesi incane kakhulu, kulula ukuyishaja, inakekela kangcono kunezimoto zikaphethiloli, ingenza ngithande ngokuphelele iChina eyenziwe!" 'uthe.

Imoto kagesi iColishaw ebigibela kuyo ibingeniswe yinkampani yasendaweni yaseGhana ebizwa ngeSun Taxi. Kusukela ngo-September 2019, inkampani isiqalile ukwethula izimoto zikagesi, izithuthuthu namabhayisikili amathathu asuka e-China, okuba “iqoqo lokuqala labadla izinkalankala” emakethe yasendaweni yaseGhana, okudonse ukunaka okukhulu endaweni. U-Emmanuel Frimpong, uchwepheshe wezobuchwepheshe eSun Taxi, uthe “izindleko eziphansi zomnotho” zokusebenzisa izimoto zikagesi ezakhiwe eShayina kungenye into ebalulekile okumele ibhekwe kubathengi bendawo. E-Accra egcwele isiminyaminya, izimoto kumele zibhuleke njalo, kukhuphule ukusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli. Ngakho-ke, kubathengi abaningi baseGhana abanomthamo olinganiselwe wezomnotho, izimoto zikagesi ngokungangabazeki ziyisinqumo esihle.

UFrimpong uthe banethemba elikhulu mayelana namandla ezimoto zikagesi zaseShayina emakethe yase-Afrika, kodwa basabambekile esigabeni sokuhlanganisa izingxenye kanye nokuntuleka kwemali kanye nemishini. Balindele ukubambisana namabhizinisi amaningi aseShayina ukuze benze imishini.

Ngokwemininingwane kahulumeni ekhishwe ngo-2020, iGhana ingenisa izimoto ezibalelwa ku-100,000 ezivela phesheya unyaka nonyaka, u-90% wazo okuyizimoto ezisetshenzisiwe. Isisi esikhishwayo esiwumphumela siwusongo endaweni ezungezile yezwe. U-Ampongsa uthe ukuvela kwezimoto zikagesi “ezenziwe eChina” kuhambisana nezidingo zamanje zezemvelo. "Esimeni sokufudumala kwembulunga yonke, sibhekisa amehlo ethu eShayina, sinethemba lokuthi iChina ingakhiqiza izimoto ezonga ugesi nezinobungani nemvelo ngobuchwepheshe obusezingeni eliphezulu futhi ilethe ezinye izimanga."
