Imakethe yensimbi ibihlale kuthiwa “isizini ephezulu ngoMashi nango-Ephreli, isizini engasebenzi ngoMeyi”. Kodwa kulo nyaka imakethe yensimbi ithikamezekile yi-Covid-19 njengoba ezokuthutha zasekhaya kanye nokuhamba kwake kwaphazamiseka. Esigabeni sokuqala, izinkinga ezifana nempahla yensimbi ephezulu, ukwehla okukhulu kwesidingo esiphansi, kanye nokwehla okukhulu kwenzuzo yezinkampani kukhungethe izinkampani zensimbi. Ngakho inkathi ephezulu yanyamalala ngoMashi. Ngemva kokungena esigabeni sesibili, ngenxa yokwethulwa okuqhubekayo kwenqubomgomo kazwelonke ehlanganisa ukwehla komnotho omkhulu kanye nokusheshisa okuqhubekayo kokuqaliswa kabusha kwezwe lokukhiqiza nokukhiqiza, isidingo esiphansi somfula emakethe yensimbi saqala ukukhula, futhi izitoko zensimbi nazo zaqhubeka nokukhula. yehla izinyanga ezi-2 ezilandelanayo. Kodwa uma ucabangela lokhu kuyimakethe Ngemva kokuwa okujulile, "Inkathi ephezulu ngo-Ephreli" yayingenele. Kusukela kokuhlangenwe nakho kwangaphambilini, ngokufika kwenkathi yemvula eningizimu, isidingo sensimbi ngokuvamile siqala ukusuka enkathini ephakeme enezigaba ukuya esikhathini esimisiwe ngemva koSuku Lwabasebenzi, futhi amanani ensimbi ngokuvamile asebenza ngokubuthakathaka, ngakho-ke kukhona isitatimende "sesizini engasebenzi ngoMeyi" .

Kulo nyaka, abathintwe yi-COVID-19, isidingo esingezansi sibambezelekile, futhi ukubanjwa kwe-NPC&CPPCC izwe kuhlehliselwe ngasekupheleni kukaMeyi. Njengoba isikhathi salezi zikhathi ezimbili zezwe sisondela, imiphumela yalezi zikhathi ezimbili izoletha izinzuzo eziningi, kuqhume ukufudumala emakethe yensimbi, okuzoqinisa kakhulu ukuzethemba kwezimakethe nezimboni ezisezansi nomfula.

Ukungqubuzana phakathi kokunikezwa kanye nesidingo kubangele ukuphumula kancane kancane. Akunzima ukuthola ukuthi minyaka yonke lezi zikhathi ezimbili zezwe zihambisana “nesiphepho sokuvikela imvelo.” Ukuze kuqinisekiswe izinga lomoya phakathi nezikhathi ezimbili, ezinye izinkampani zensimbi zidinga ukumisa ukukhiqiza ngalesi sikhathi. Lokhu kwehlise ingcindezi yokuhlinzekwa kwemakethe ngokwezinga elithile, kwenyusa ukwehla okuqhubekayo kohlu lwamagama, ukukhishwa okusheshisiwe kwesidingo, nezinye izici. Ukunikezwa kwemakethe nokungqubuzana kwezidingo kungenise isikhathi sokuphumula. Izintengo zensimbi nazo kulindeleke ukuthi zikhuphuke kancane ngenxa yalo mphumela.

Sekukonke, ngaphansi kwezibusiso ezihle ezilindelwe yiKhongolose Yabantu Kazwelonke kanye neNgqungquthela Kazwelonke Yabantu, isimo semakethe yensimbi sesilungisiwe, kodwa inkinga yokungafunwa okwanele isasobala. Kuze kube manje, izinkampani zensimbi kufanele zisebenzise umphumela wokusebenzisana wochungechunge lwezimboni, futhi zilandelele kusenesikhathi imininingwane yesidingo sezimboni ezansi nomfula. Ngemuva kwemibiko yomsebenzi kahulumeni ekhishwe yimihlangano emibili yezwe kulo nyaka, bazobheka ngokushesha amathuba ensimbi aqukethwe kuwo.
