ʻO Zanzibar - ka paradaiso mākaʻikaʻi e ola ana i kona kaulana

Mai kahi hōkele mākaʻikaʻi a hiki i 600 mau hōkele a me nā hale hoʻokipa honua, ua haʻaheo ʻo Zanzibar i kāna hoʻomohala ʻana i nā mākaʻikaʻi aloha mai 1964, i ka wā i loaʻa ai i ka mokupuni kona aupuni ponoʻī.

Ua koho ke aupuni ʻo Zanzibar i ka mākaʻikaʻi ke alakaʻi i ka ʻoihana waiwai ma lalo o kāna hoʻokele ponoʻī i nā makahiki he 59 i hala iho nei, a ke hoʻokūkū nei ʻo ia me nā mokupuni ʻē aʻe o ka moana India i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka mākaʻikaʻi.

Aia ma ke kapakai o ka nui Tanazania ʻāina nui, Zanzibar ke huli nei i paradaiso mākaʻikaʻi ʻApelika, me nā mile o nā kahakai i hoʻopaʻa ʻole ʻia e holo ana a hiki i ka ʻike ʻana o ka maka, e kū ana i ke kua o ka Moana Inia.

ʻO ka maʻamau, ʻo ka noho ʻana o Zanzibar he mea ʻole, a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka pō me nā poʻe mokupuni e puka mai ana ma hope o ka napoʻo ʻana o ka lā e ʻākoakoa i nā wahi leʻaleʻa, ʻo ka hapa nui ma Stone Town a me Forodhani, me kāna mau meaʻai, nā hale ʻaina a me nā hōkele mākaʻikaʻi.

ʻO ka kipa ʻana iā Zanzibar hiki ke lilo i mea ʻike ola. ʻO nā wahi punahele mākaʻikaʻi nani nā kahakai one keʻokeʻo, Stone Town, the Slave Market, Anglican Cathedral, the House of Wonders, Sultans' Palace Museum, the Old Arab Fort and The House of Wonders.

ʻO ke kahakai ʻo Bwejuu me kona kahakai one keʻokeʻo i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma ka hikina hema. ʻO ke kahakai ʻo Nungwi ma ke kūkulu ʻākau ka mea i ʻike nui ʻia no kāna mau hana kahakai i ke ao a me ka pō a he mea punahele i nā ʻōpio.

ʻO ka nahele ʻo Jozani ka wahi i hoʻomalu maoli ʻia kahi e ʻike maʻalahi ai ka poʻe malihini i ka monkey Red Colubus kū hoʻokahi, kahi ʻano laʻa ʻole i ʻike ʻia ma nā wahi āpau. ʻO East Africa ma waho o Zanzibar.

ʻO ka Mokupuni ʻo Changuu kahi wahi mākaʻikaʻi ʻē aʻe ma Zanzibar. ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona nui o ka mokupuni ʻo ia ka Giant Tortoises kaulana, a hiki i 200 mau makahiki. ʻO kēia Giant Aldabra Tortoise nā wahi mākaʻikaʻi kaulana i loaʻa ma Zanzibar wale nō.

Hiki iā lākou ke ulu a hiki i ka 122 knm (48 iniha) ka lōʻihi, me ka awelika kaumaha o 250 kg (551 lbs).

Ua ʻike ʻia ʻo lākou kekahi o nā holoholona lōʻihi loa o ka honua. ʻO ka honu kahiko loa i manaʻo ʻia he 196 mau makahiki.

ʻO Mangapwani Coral Cavern he ana nui ma lalo o ka honua i hoʻohana mua ʻia e hūnā i nā kauā i ka wā o ke kālepa kauā weliweli. Aia ia ma kahi o 20 mau kilomita ma ka ʻĀkau o Zanzibar's the Stone Town

Ua ʻike ʻia ke ana koʻa 1.6 miliona makahiki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia 19 e kekahi keikikāne e ʻimi ana i kahi kao nalowale i komo i loko o ke ana me ka pōʻino. I ka lohe ʻana i ka leo o ke kao nalowale mai lalo mai, haʻi akula ke keiki i kona haku ʻāina ʻArabia nāna i hoʻouna aku i kāna mau kauā e hoʻopakele i kāna kao.

Ua loaʻa i nā kauā he pūnāwai wai maʻemaʻe e kahe ana mai loko mai o ke koʻa ma luna o nā papahele o ke ana, a ma hope mai ua hoʻohana ʻia ke ana i kumu wai hou mai kona punawai lalo.

Ua hoʻomaka ka moʻolelo o Mangapwani Cavern ma hope o 1873 i ka wā i hoʻohana ai nā mea kālepa kauā Arab e hūnā i nā kauā ma mua o ka lawe ʻana aku iā lākou no ke kūʻai aku i Oman a me nā mokuʻāina ʻē aʻe o ka Middle East.

Ma kahi kokoke i ke ana ʻo Zanzibar Slave Chamber i kūkulu ʻia ma kahi kokoke i kona puka komo a laila pili i ke kai. ʻO ka Slave Chamber kahi keʻena ma lalo o ka honua me kahi hale ma luna, a laila hoʻopuni ʻia e nā kumulāʻau ʻōiwi like ʻole e hoʻopau i kona noho ʻana.

Ua kūkulu ʻia ma lalo o ka lepo no ka mālama ʻana i nā kauā ma mua o ka lawe ʻana. ʻOi aku ma mua o 100 mau kauā i hoʻopiha ʻia i loko o ke kaʻa e kali ana i ka hōʻea ʻana o nā moku kalepa e lawe aku iā lākou.

I ka wā e kipa aku ai i Mangapwani, hiki i ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi ke ʻimi i ke ana a hiki i ke kai me kahi alakaʻi kūloko e paʻa ana i kahi ipukukui kukui ikaika e hoʻomālamalama i ke ala a me kahi ala i lawe ʻia ai nā kauā ʻApelika no kā lākou "Hele ʻAʻohe Hoʻi" i ka Middle East.

He mea maʻalahi ke kipa ʻana a makaʻala i ke ana ʻo Mangapwani no ka mea he hoʻokahi hola a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi e makaʻala i ke ana.

Ke hoʻolilo nei ʻo Zanzibar i nā hoʻopukapuka kālā ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa ma o ke kulekele Blue Economy o ka Mokupuni, i mākaukau e hoʻohana i nā kumuwaiwai kai no ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka hoʻokele waiwai a me ka pono o ka poʻe ma ka Mokupuni.

Manaʻo ʻia kekahi mau mea hoʻopukapuka kālā a me nā mea e pili ana i ka mākaʻikaʻi ma Zanzibar no ka Hikina a me Central Africa nā mea hoʻopukapuka kālā Forum 2023 ma lalo o ke kumumanaʻo "Rethinking Investment Returns in the New Normal, Investing for Impact".

Hoʻonohonoho ʻia no Pepeluali 22 a me 23, i kēia makahiki, e hui pū ka ʻaha kūkā ʻelua lā i nā mea kuleana like ʻole e hoʻopili kekahi i kekahi i nā pilikia like ʻole e pili ana i ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka hoʻomohala hoʻokele waiwai o ka ʻāina Hikina a me ʻApelika Waena, ma o ka huki ʻana o ka hoʻopukapuka hou ka hapa nui ma. ka mākaʻikaʻi e hoʻonui i kona hoʻokele waiwai.
