IERUSALEM - Me he mea lā e huhū ana nā mea kūʻai kūʻai ma ke kūlanakauhale kahiko o Ierusalema e pili ana i ka noho mālie o ka lā ma hope o ke kauwela wela, e kali ana i kahi pōʻai hou o ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi lehulehu e lawe mai i kahi kau waiwai.
Akā, aia ka nūhou maikaʻi no lākou: ʻo ka hui huakaʻi Kina mua e pili ana i ka ʻIseraʻela e hōʻea i ka ʻāina Baibala ma hope o kēia mahina, ʻoiai ua ʻae ʻia ʻo ʻIseraʻela no kahi huakaʻi no nā mākaʻikaʻi Kina.
He kanawalu mau mākaʻikaʻi e haʻalele i ʻelua mau pūʻulu ma Sept. 25 a me 28, e hele ana i nā wahi kaulana e like me Ierusalema, ke Kai Make a me ke kūlanakauhale ʻo ke Kaiʻula o Eilat i ka huakaʻi 10-lā, e komo pū kekahi mau wahi nani ma Ioredane, Israeli. Ua haʻi aku ke Kuhina Kūʻai ʻo Ruhama Avraham-Balila i kahi kūkā nūhou ma mua o kēia mahina ma Kina.
I kēia manawa, ke nānā hou nei ʻo China Air, ka mokulele nui loa o Kina, i ka hana o nā mokulele kalepa ma waena o Israel a me Kina.
I nā mahina ʻehiku mua o ka makahiki 2008, ma kahi o 8,000 mau mākaʻikaʻi ʻoihana Kina i kipa aku i ka ʻIseraʻela, he piʻi o 45 pakeneka ma mua o ka manawa like ma 2007.
"ʻO kā mākou pahuhopu ka lawe ʻana mai i 15,000 mau mākaʻikaʻi Kina i ka hopena o ka makahiki 2008," i ʻōlelo ʻia e ka mea aʻoaʻo haole kūwaho i ko Israel Ministry Ministry Lydia Weitzman.
Ke hana nei ka Israeli Tourism and Foreign Ministry i nā makahiki i hala iho nei no ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ʻae Kina ma ke ʻano he wahi mākaʻikaʻi.
"I kēlā me kēia makahiki, he 50 miliona mau Kina e kipa aku i kahi kokoke i ka ʻIseraʻela, a pono mākou e hoʻomākaukau e komo i kekahi o ia mau mea," wahi a Avraham, me ka hoʻohui ʻana o ka ʻaelike e hōʻoluʻolu i ka pilikia o nā visa komo i nā ʻāina ʻelua.
Ke manaʻo nei ʻo Israel Tourism Ministry i ka piʻi nui ʻana o ka nui o nā mākaʻikaʻi Kina a ke hana nei i nā mākaukau kūpono, wahi a Lydia.
ʻO ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana no ka loaʻa ʻana o ka mākaʻikaʻi Kina a hoʻololi i ka huahana mākaʻikaʻi e hoʻokō i ko lākou mau pono ponoʻī, ʻo ia ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i nā alakaʻi mākaʻikaʻi ʻōlelo Pākē, nā chefs ma nā hale ʻaina hōkele, ke kiʻi ʻana i nā limahana ʻōlelo Kina i ka hōkele a me nā ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi, ka unuhi ʻana i nā mea ʻike, nā palapala ʻāina, nā palapala Pākē, a me ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā papa i nā limahana ma ka ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi ma nā ʻano kūʻokoʻa o ka moʻomeheu Kina.
Eia hou, hiki i nā poʻe mākaʻikaʻi Kina ke hoʻohana i ka Tourphone, kahi hotline 24-hola no ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi e hāʻawi i ka ʻike, nā kuhikuhi a me ke kōkua ʻana i nā pilikia pilikia.
Ke manaʻo nei i ka hoʻopukapuka kālā ʻana ma ka mākeke Kina, e hoʻopuka ʻo Israel Tourism Ministry i kahi palapala aʻo no nā mea hoʻokele huakaʻi Kina a no nā mea huakaʻi huakaʻi ʻIseraʻela e kūʻai aku ana i nā pūʻolo huakaʻi ma Kina.
Ke hoʻoikaika nei ka ʻoihana i ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i nā seminar ʻoihana, nā huakaʻi ʻike ʻoiaʻiʻo i ka ʻIseraʻela no nā mea hoʻokele huakaʻi Kina a me nā mea nūpepa, a me nā hui hui no nā ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi Israeli a me Kina.
