Njengoko iifektri zelaphu kunye nezityalo ezisontayo eBangladesh zisokola ukuvelisa intambo,abenzi belaphu kunye neempahlabaphoqeleka ukuba bajonge kwenye indawo ukuze bahlangabezane nemfuno.

Idatha evela kwiBhanki yaseBangladesh ibonise ukubaimboni yeempahlaIntambo engeniswe kwamanye amazwe exabisa i-$2.64 yeebhiliyoni ngexesha likaJulayi-Aprili kunyaka-mali osandul’ ukuphela, ngelixa intambo engeniswe kwamanye amazwe kwixesha elifanayo lonyaka-mali ka-2023 yayiyi-$2.34 yeebhiliyoni.

Ingxaki yokubonelela ngegesi nayo ibe yinto ephambili kule meko. Ngokwesiqhelo, iifektri zempahla kunye nelaphu zifuna uxinzelelo lwegesi olumalunga neepawundi ezi-8-10 ngesikwere intshi (PSI) ukuze zisebenze ngokupheleleyo. Nangona kunjalo, ngokutsho kweBangladesh Textile Mills Association (BTMA), uxinzelelo lomoya luyehla luye kwi-1-2 PSI emini, nto leyo echaphazela kakhulu imveliso kwiindawo zoshishino ezinkulu kwaye ide ihlale ubusuku bonke.

Abantu abangaphakathi kushishino bathi uxinzelelo lomoya oluphantsi luye lwaphazamisa imveliso, nto leyo enyanzele ama-70-80% eefektri ukuba asebenze malunga nama-40% omthamo. Abanini beefektri ezijikelezayo bakhathazekile ngokungakwazi ukubonelela ngexesha. Bavumile ukuba ukuba iifektri ezijikelezayo azikwazi ukubonelela ngentambo ngexesha, abanini beefektri zempahla banokunyanzelwa ukuba bangenise intambo kwamanye amazwe. Oosomashishini bakwabonise ukuba ukuncipha kwemveliso kuye kwanda iindleko kwaye kwanciphisa ukuhamba kwemali, okwenza kube nzima ukuhlawula imivuzo yabasebenzi kunye neemali zoncedo ngexesha.

Abathengisi beempahla kwamanye amazwe nabo bayayiqonda imingeni abajongene nayoiifektri zelaphu kunye neefektri zokujikelezaBathi ukuphazamiseka kwegesi kunye nokunikezelwa kwamandla nako kuchaphazele kakhulu ukusebenza kwee-RMG mills.

Kwisithili saseNarayanganj, uxinzelelo lwegesi belungekho ngaphambi kwe-Eid al-Adha kodwa ngoku lunyuke lwaya kwi-3-4 PSI. Nangona kunjalo, olu xinzelelo alwanelanga ukusebenzisa zonke iimatshini, nto leyo echaphazela amaxesha okuhambisa kwazo. Ngenxa yoko, uninzi lweefektri zokudaya zisebenza nge-50% kuphela yamandla azo.

Ngokwesetyhula yebhanki ephakathi eyakhutshwa ngoJuni 30, izibonelelo zemali kwiifektri zelaphu ezijolise ekuthumeleni impahla kwamanye amazwe zincitshisiwe ukusuka kwi-3% ukuya kwi-1.5%. Malunga neenyanga ezintandathu ezidlulileyo, izinga lezibonelelo yayiyi-4%.

Abantu abanolwazi ngezoshishino balumkisa ukuba ishishini leempahla ezenziwe sele zilungile linokuba “lishishini lokuthumela impahla kwamanye amazwe elixhomekeke ekuthengeni impahla kwamanye amazwe” ukuba urhulumente akayilungisi imigaqo-nkqubo yakhe ukuze enze amashishini asekuhlaleni akhuphisane ngakumbi.

“Ixabiso lentambo ye-30/1 count, eqhele ukusetyenziswa ekwenzeni impahla ethungiweyo, yayiyi-$3.70 ngekhilogram ngenyanga edlulileyo, kodwa ngoku yehle yaya kwi-$3.20-3.25. Okwangoku, ii-spinning mills zaseIndiya zibonelela ngentambo efanayo ngexabiso eliphantsi kwi-$2.90-2.95, apho abathengisi beempahla bakhetha ukungenisa intambo ngezizathu zokonga imali.

Kwinyanga ephelileyo, i-BTMA yabhalela uSihlalo wePetrobangla uZanendra Nath Sarker, igxininisa ukuba ingxaki yegesi ichaphazele kakhulu imveliso yefektri, kwaye uxinzelelo lwentambo yokubonelela kwezinye iifektri zamalungu luyehla luye kufutshane no-zero. Oku kubangele umonakalo omkhulu koomatshini kwaye kwakhokelela ekuphazamisekeni kokusebenza. Le leta ikwaphawule ukuba ixabiso legesi nge-cubic meter linyukile ukusuka kwi-Tk16 ukuya kwi-Tk31.5 ngoJanuwari 2023.
