Muva nje, uMnyango Wezohwebo, Imboni kanye Nokuncintisana waseNingizimu Afrika ukhiphe "iPhepha Elimhlophe Ngezimoto Zikagesi", umemezela ukuthi imboni yezimoto yaseNingizimu Afrika ingena esigabeni esibucayi. Leli phepha elimhlophe lichaza ukususwa kwezinjini zokushisa zangaphakathi emhlabeni jikelele (i-ICE) kanye nezingozi ezingaba khona lokhu embonini yezimoto yaseNingizimu Afrika. Ukuze kuxazululwe lezi zinselele, leli phepha elimhlophe liphakamisa izinhlelo zamasu zokusebenzisa ingqalasizinda ekhona kanye nezinsizakusebenza zokukhiqiza izimoto zikagesi (ama-EV) kanye nezingxenye zazo.
Iphepha elimhlophe likhuluma ngokuthi ukushintshela ekukhiqizweni kwezimoto zikagesi kuhambisana nemigomo yentuthuko yezomnotho yaseNingizimu Afrika ngokuqinisekisa ukukhula okusimeme kwesikhathi eside kwemboni yezimoto, futhi lichaza amathuba nezinselele ekushintsheni kwezimoto zikagesi. Ngaphezu kwalokho, izinguquko zengqalasizinda ezihlongozwayo ezifana namachweba, amandla kanye nezitimela ngeke zisize kuphela ekuguqulweni nasekuthuthukisweni kwemboni yezimoto, kodwa futhi zizofaka isandla ekuthuthukisweni komnotho okubanzi eNingizimu Afrika.
Ukugxila ekuthuthukisweni kwengqalasizinda ephepheni elimhlophe kugxile ezindaweni ezimbili eziyinhloko. Leli phepha elimhlophe likholelwa ukuthi ngokombono wentuthuko iyonke yemboni yezimoto, ukuguqulwa kwengqalasizinda ekhona njengezindawo zokungenisa izihambi kanye nezikhungo zamandla kubalulekile ekukhuthazeni ukutshalwa kwezimali eNingizimu Afrika. Leli phepha elimhlophe liphinde lixoxe ngokutshalwa kwezimali engqalasizinda yokushaja ehlobene nokushintshela ezimotweni zikagesi ukuze kuncishiswe ukukhathazeka mayelana nokutholakala kwezindawo zokushaja e-Afrika.
UBeth Dealtry, inhloko yezindaba zenqubomgomo kanye nokulawula eNational Association of Automotive Components and Allied Manufacturers (NAACAM), uthe imboni yezimoto ibaluleke kakhulu kwezomnotho ku-GDP yaseNingizimu Afrika, ukuthunyelwa kwamanye amazwe kanye nokuqashwa, futhi kuvezwa ukuthi leli phepha elimhlophe liphinde libonise izithiyo eziningi kanye nezinselelo ezibhekene nentuthuko yaseNingizimu Afrika.
Lapho ekhuluma ngomthelela wephepha elimhlophe ekuthuthukisweni kwezimoto zikagesi zaseShayina emakethe yaseNingizimu Afrika, uLiu Yun ukhombe ukuthi kubakhiqizi bezimoto zikagesi baseShayina abafuna ukungena emakethe yaseNingizimu Afrika, ukukhishwa kwephepha elimhlophe kunikeza indawo enhle yentuthuko futhi kushukumisela abakhiqizi ukuba basheshise amalungiselelo abo okuzivumelanisa nezimo. Imikhiqizo yamandla emisha yemakethe yendawo.
ULiu Yun uthe kusenezinselelo ezithile ekukhangiseni izimoto zikagesi eNingizimu Afrika. Eyokuqala yinkinga yokuthengeka. Njengoba kungekho ukwehliswa kwentela, intengo yezimoto zikagesi iphakeme kuneyezimoto zikaphethiloli. Esesibili ukukhathazeka ngebanga. Njengoba izikhungo zengqalasizinda zilinganiselwe futhi okwamanje ziqhutshwa yizinkampani ezizimele, amakhasimende ngokuvamile akhathazeka ngokunganele kwebanga. Esesithathu Ngokuphathelene nezinsiza zikagesi, iNingizimu Afrika ithembele kakhulu emandleni angemvelo njengomthombo wayo oyinhloko wamandla, kanti abahlinzeki bamandla aluhlaza balinganiselwe. Njengamanje, iNingizimu Afrika ibhekene nezinyathelo zokunciphisa umthwalo wamandla ezingeni lesi-4 noma ngaphezulu. Iziteshi zokuphehla ugesi ezindala zidinga imali eningi ukuze zishintshe, kodwa uhulumeni akakwazi ukukhokhela lezi zindleko ezinkulu.
ULiu Yun wanezela ngokuthi iNingizimu Afrika ingafunda kokuhlangenwe nakho okufanelekile kweShayina ekuthuthukiseni izimoto ezintsha zamandla, njengokwakha ingqalasizinda kahulumeni, ukuthuthukisa izinhlelo zegridi yamandla endawo ukudala indawo enhle yemakethe, ukuhlinzeka ngezikhuthazo zokukhiqiza njengezinqubomgomo zesikweletu sekhabhoni, ukunciphisa intela yezinkampani, kanye nokukhomba abathengi. Ukuhlinzeka ngokukhululwa enteleni yokuthenga kanye nezinye izikhuthazo zokusebenzisa.
Iphepha elimhlophe liphakamisa isiqondiso samasu saseNingizimu Afrika sokuthuthukisa izimoto zikagesi nokubhekana nezinselele zomnotho, ezemvelo kanye nezomthetho. Linikeza isiqondiso esicacile seNingizimu Afrika sokushintshela ngempumelelo ezimotweni zikagesi futhi liyisinyathelo esibheke emnothweni ohlanzekile, ozinzile futhi oncintisanayo. Isinyathelo esibalulekile ekuthuthukisweni kwemakethe yezimoto. Lezi zimoto ezimbili zikagesi ziyashaja eShayina,
