Kukhona isiko elide lokubona ikusasa lamadolobha ngendlela ye-utopian noma ye-dystopian futhi akunzima ukuqamba izithombe kunoma iyiphi indlela yamadolobha eminyakeni engama-25, kubhala u-Eric Woods.
Ngesikhathi lapho ukubikezela okuzokwenzeka ngenyanga ezayo kunzima, ukucabanga ngeminyaka engama-25 ezayo kuyesabisa futhi kuyakhulula, ikakhulukazi uma ucabanga ngekusasa lamadolobha. Sekuyiminyaka engaphezu kweshumi, ukunyakaza kwamadolobha ahlakaniphile kuqhutshwa imibono yokuthi ubuchwepheshe bungasiza kanjani ekubhekaneni nezinye zezinselele zasemadolobheni ezingenakuxazululeka. Ubhubhane lweCoronavirus kanye nokuqashelwa okwandayo komthelela wokushintsha kwesimo sezulu kuye kwanezela ukuphuthuma okusha kule mibuzo. Impilo yezakhamuzi kanye nokusinda komnotho kuye kwaba yizinto eziza kuqala kubaholi bamadolobha. Imibono eyamukelwe yokuthi amadolobha ahlelwe kanjani, aphathwe kanjani, futhi aqashwe kanjani iye yachithwa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, amadolobha abhekene nesabelomali esinciphile kanye nezisekelo zentela ezincishisiwe. Naphezu kwalezi zinselele eziphuthumayo nezingalindelekile, abaholi bamadolobha bayaqaphela isidingo sokwakha kabusha kangcono ukuqinisekisa ukuqina kwezehlakalo zobhubhane zesikhathi esizayo, ukusheshisa ukushintshela emadolobheni angenayo ikhabhoni, kanye nokubhekana nokungalingani okukhulu kwezenhlalo emadolobheni amaningi.
Ukucabanga kabusha ngezinto eziza kuqala edolobheni
Ngesikhathi senkinga ye-COVID-19, amanye amaphrojekthi edolobha elihlakaniphile ahlehlisiwe noma akhanseliwe kanti ukutshalwa kwezimali kudluliselwe ezindaweni ezintsha ezibaluleke kakhulu. Naphezu kwalezi zithiyo, isidingo esiyisisekelo sokutshala imali ekuthuthukisweni kwengqalasizinda yasemadolobheni kanye nezinsizakalo sisalokhu sikhona. I-Guidehouse Insights ilindele ukuthi imakethe yobuchwepheshe bedolobha elihlakaniphile yomhlaba wonke izoba yi-$101 billion ngenzuzo yonyaka ngo-2021 futhi ikhule ibe yi-$240 billion ngo-2030. Lesi sibikezelo simelela ukusetshenziswa okuphelele kwe-$1.65 trillion eminyakeni eyishumi. Lokhu kutshalwa kwezimali kuzosatshalaliswa kuzo zonke izici zengqalasizinda yedolobha, okuhlanganisa izinhlelo zamandla namanzi, ezokuthutha, ukuthuthukiswa kwezakhiwo, amanethiwekhi nezinhlelo zokusebenza ze-Intanethi Yezinto, ukwenziwa kwedijithali kwezinsizakalo zikahulumeni, kanye namapulatifomu edatha amasha kanye namakhono okuhlaziya.
Lokhu kutshalwa kwezimali – ikakhulukazi lokho okwenziwe eminyakeni emi-5 ezayo – kuzoba nomthelela omkhulu esimweni samadolobha ethu eminyakeni engama-25 ezayo. Amadolobha amaningi asevele enezinhlelo zokuthi amadolobha angathathi hlangothi kwekhabhoni noma angabi nakhabhoni ngo-2050 noma ngaphambili. Nakuba izibopho ezinjalo zingaba mnandi, ukuzenza zibe ngokoqobo kudinga izindlela ezintsha zengqalasizinda yasemadolobheni kanye nezinsizakalo ezinikezwa izinhlelo ezintsha zamandla, ubuchwepheshe bokwakha nezokuthutha, kanye namathuluzi edijithali. Kudinga futhi amapulatifomu amasha angasekela ukubambisana phakathi kweminyango yedolobha, amabhizinisi, kanye nezakhamuzi ekuguqulweni komnotho ongenakhabhoni.
