I ka wā i haʻalele ai ʻo Ioana Isac o Romania ma Ben Gurion International Airport, ua haʻalulu ʻo ia i ka ʻike ʻana ʻo ia ka ʻekolu miliona o ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi o ka ʻIseraʻela i ka makahiki 2017. Ua mālama ʻia ʻo Isac a me kāna hoa i kahi hoʻokipa ʻulaʻula a hāʻawi ʻia i kahi suite hōkele i hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia, kahi limousine, holo helikopter a ʻo kahi huakaʻi pilikino a ke Kuhina Nui ʻo Benjamin Netanyahu.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ke ʻike nei ka ʻoihana mākaʻikaʻi o ka ʻIseraʻela i kona ulu nui ʻana i nā makahiki, ma ka liʻiliʻi ma muli o nā helu helu hou, ma hope o ka emi ʻana o nā helu ma muli o ke kaua 2014 me Hamas. ʻO ka Palestinian "knife intifada," i hopena i ka ʻumi o ka ʻIseraʻela i pepehi ʻia a ʻeha paha i nā makahiki ʻelua i hala iho nei, ua kōkua pū kekahi i ka emi ʻana o ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi.
Ma ka hoʻohālikelike ʻana, ua hoʻopaʻa inoa ka Ministry of Tourism Israeli i ka piʻi ʻana o 57% o nā mea mākaʻikaʻi a me ka piʻi ʻana o 106% o nā malihini kipa i kēia ʻOkakopa i hoʻohālikelike ʻia i ka makahiki i hala. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻoi aku ma mua o 400,000 mau mākaʻikaʻi i kipa aku i ka ʻāina i ʻOkakopa wale nō, ʻo ka mahina maikaʻi loa o ka ʻIseraʻela no ka mākaʻikaʻi e hiki mai ana.
A e like me ka Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics, ma waena o Ianuali a me ʻOkakopa o 2017 kokoke ʻekolu miliona mau mea mākaʻikaʻi i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, he 26% hoʻonui i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kuhina Kūʻai ʻo Yariv Levin, e pili ana i kēia mau helu, "He helu helu ʻike ʻole kēia… ʻAʻole kēia he maʻamau, akā ʻo nā hopena pololei o ka hana koʻikoʻi, kahi hoʻololi i ka hoʻolālā kūʻai aku a me ka piʻi ʻana o nā mokulele.
Ua hoʻokomo ʻia nā kūlanakauhale ʻo ʻIseraʻela i ka 100 kiʻekiʻe o nā wahi huakaʻi kipa e like me ka hui noiʻi mākeke Euromonitor International, me Ierusalema e hele mai ana i 67th a me Tel Aviv 78th.
Ma keʻano holoʻokoʻa, aia ka piʻi ʻana o ka mākaʻikaʻi i nā ʻāina Mediterranean, me Cyprus, Italia a me Helene, me nā mea ʻekolu e pōmaikaʻi ana mai ka helu helu o nā malihini ma 2017.
ʻO Yoav Gal, ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu a me Luna Hoʻokele o Israel My Way, kahi hui huakaʻi kūʻai kūʻai kūikawā i nā huakaʻi kūʻokoʻa i hana ʻia i loko o ka ʻIseraʻela, ua haʻi aku i kāna manaʻo me The Media Line: "Ma waho aʻe o ka nui o nā mākaʻikaʻi, ʻo ke ʻano ʻē aʻe a mākou e ʻike nei, ʻo ia ka mea e ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ko mākou ola, ʻo ia ka pōkole o ka manawa alakaʻi. Ua hoʻopaʻa mua nā poʻe mākaʻikaʻi ʻAmelika ma mua, akā ua pōkole kēia manawa alakaʻi. I kekahi manawa, hāʻawi mai kā mākou mea kūʻai iā mākou i hoʻokahi pule wale nō.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Gal i ka hoʻoweliweli honua i ke kumu kūpono no kēia. "ʻO koʻu manaʻo," i wehewehe ʻo ia, "ʻoiai ʻo ka ʻIseraʻela ma mua e pili pū ana me nā hoʻouka kaua a me nā kūlana palekana paʻa ʻole, i kēia manawa ua like ka honua holoʻokoʻa. Aia nā hoʻouka kaua ma nā wahi a pau. ʻAʻole makemake ka poʻe e hoʻohiki i nā lā huakaʻi ma mua no ka hopohopo e hoʻopau ʻia ma muli o ka hoʻouka kaua weliweli ma kahi. No laila ke kali nei lākou e kākau a hiki i ka minuke hope loa.
Ua ʻae aku ka ʻōlelo a ka ʻōlelo a ke Kuhina Kūʻai ʻo Anat Shihor-Aronson. "Ua hoʻomaopopo ka poʻe i kēia lā ʻaʻohe wahi palekana i ka honua," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia, "a ʻike lākou i kēia manawa ua palekana ka ʻIseraʻela e like me nā wahi ʻē aʻe, inā ʻaʻole ʻoi aku [pēlā] no kāna ʻike kūʻē i ka hoʻoweliweli.
Ua haʻi aku kahi waha ʻōlelo no ka Israel Hotel Association (IHA), ka hui umbrella no ka ʻoihana hoʻokipa ma ʻIseraʻela, i ka Media Line "ʻoluʻolu i ka piʻi ʻana o ka huakaʻi mākaʻikaʻi a ke manaʻo nei e hoʻomau ka ʻano i ka manawa." Ua hōʻike pū ka IHA i ka "hoʻonui ʻana i ka waihona kālā kūʻai aku o ka Ministry of Tourism."
Hāʻawi ʻo Shihor-Aronson i kekahi kumu kūpono e piʻi ai ka mākaʻikaʻi; ʻo ia hoʻi, ke holo nei ʻo ʻIseraʻela i nā hoʻolaha e kālele ana i nā mākeke hou e like me Romania, Polani a me Kina. "Ke wehe nei mākou i ka ʻIseraʻela i nā mokulele pololei," i wehewehe ai ʻo ia, "a loaʻa nā mokulele i kahi haʻawina nui mai ka Ministry of Tourism mai ka paipai ʻana."
"Ke hāʻawi aku nei mākou i nā mea hoʻoikaika no nā mākaʻikaʻi e pae ana ma Eilat mai ʻOkakopa a Mei. Nui nā hui e hāʻawi nei i kēia koho no ka manawa mua, e hāʻawi ana i ka hoʻonui. "
Akā, hiki anei i ka ʻIseraʻela ke hoʻohana i nā mea mākaʻikaʻi hou aku?
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Shihor-Aronson ʻaʻole lawa nā hōkele o ka ʻIseraʻela, akā "e hoʻāʻo nei e hoʻoulu i ka hoʻokūkū a ʻoki i ka bureaucracy, a mākou e manaʻo nei e alakaʻi i nā kumukūʻai haʻahaʻa."
He ʻokoʻa kēia me ka manaʻo o IHA "ʻaʻohe hemahema o nā lumi hōkele i kēia manawa."
"He ʻoiaʻiʻo aia nā manawa paʻahana a i ʻole nā lā," i ʻōlelo ai kahi ʻelele o ke kino, "akā ma ka awelika makahiki, aia kahi lumi no nā mākaʻikaʻi hou aʻe. I ka wā lōʻihi, inā ʻoi aku ka nui o ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi e hiki mai ana ma mua o ʻehā a ʻelima paha miliona, a laila pono nā lumi hōkele hou.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo CEO ʻo Israel My Way Gal "ʻoiai ke kūkulu nei ʻo ʻIseraʻela i nā hōkele hou aku, nui nā bottlenecks. ʻOiai inā lawa nā lumi hōkele, ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi mau wahi mākaʻikaʻi ke paʻa i ka hiki.
"He laʻana," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia, "ke piʻi nui nei ke kūlanakauhale kahiko o Ierusalema. Hoʻopaʻa piha ʻia kekahi mau pūnaewele i nā mahina ma mua, e like me ka Western Wall Tunnels. Ua maikaʻi kekahi poʻe mākaʻikaʻi, akā inā kū ka moku holo moku me 2,000 poʻe i Haifa, ʻaʻole hiki i kēia mau ʻano pūnaewele ke mālama i kēlā nui o nā mākaʻikaʻi i ka manawa hoʻokahi.
ʻO kēlā me kēia ʻaoʻao, inā e hoʻomau kēia ʻano piʻi i ka makahiki aʻe e hoʻolauleʻa ai ʻo ʻIseraʻela i ʻehā miliona mau mākaʻikaʻi.
