Noma kunjalo, asikho isiqiniseko sokuthi zonke iziqukathi ezilethwa esikhumulweni zizothunyelwa ngaphambi kukaNcibijane WaseShayina ngoFebhuwari 10, njengoba abathwali bazokhetha ngokukhethekile izimpahla ezithwala ngamanani aphezulu futhi bahlehlise izinkontileka ezinamanani aphansi.

Amanani kaFebhuwari angaphezulu kuka-$10,000

Ngesikhathi sendawo se-12, i-US Consumer News kanye ne-Business Channel yabika ukuthi uma ukungezwani okukhona manje oLwandle Olubomvu kuqhubeka isikhathi eside, kuba mkhulu umthelela ekuthuthweni komhlaba wonke, izindleko zokuthumela zizokhuphuka ngokuya phezulu.Isimo sokufudumala oLwandle Olubomvu sinomthelela omubi, sinyusa amanani emikhumbi emhlabeni jikelele.

Kukhulu ukungaqiniseki okusekhona
Imakethe ilindele ukuthi ukuphazamiseka kwe-supply chain kuqhubeke.Idatha yokuhlaziya i-Kuehne & Nagel ibonisa ukuthi kusukela ngomhlaka-12, inani lemikhumbi yamabhokisi ephambukisiwe ngenxa yesimo soLwandle Olubomvu kunqunywe ukuthi lingama-388, nenani elilinganiselwe lengqikithi ye-TEU eyizigidi ezingu-5.13.Imikhumbi engu-41 isivele ifikile endaweni yokuqala lapho iya khona ngemva kokuphambukiswa.Ngokwenkampani ehlaziya idatha yezokuthutha i-Project44, ukuhamba kwemikhumbi yansuku zonke eSuez Canal kwehle ngamaphesenti angama-61 kuya esilinganisweni semikhumbi engu-5.8 kusukela ngaphambi kokuhlasela kwamaHouthi.
Abahlaziyi bezimakethe baveze ukuthi iziteleka zase-US nase-UK ezihlosweni zeHouthi ngeke zipholise isimo samanje oLwandle Olubomvu, kodwa zizokwandisa kakhulu ukungezwani kwendawo, okubangela ukuthi izinkampani zemikhumbi zigweme umzila wasoLwandle Olubomvu isikhathi eside.Ukulungiswa komzila kube nomthelela futhi ekulayisheni nasekwehliseni umthwalo emachwebeni, kanti izikhathi zokulinda emachwebeni amakhulu aseNingizimu Afrika aseThekwini naseKapa afinyelela kumadijithi amabili.

IBhange Lomhlaba likhiphe isexwayiso esisemthethweni, esikhomba ukuqhubeka kweziyaluyalu zezwe kanye namathuba okuphazamiseka kokuphakelwa kukagesi.
