Masomphenya a PATA yatsopano ya Mawa

Kuyambira m'chaka cha 1951, PATA yakhala ngati chothandizira pa chitukuko cha maulendo ndi zokopa alendo, kuchokera, ndi mkati mwa Asia Pacific Region. Chofunika kwambiri, PATA imagwira ntchito ngati nsanja yosonkhanitsa Maboma ndi Mafakitale omwe amatsogolera ku mgwirizano wopindulitsa womwe umapangitsa kusiyana padziko lonse lapansi, madera, dziko lonse komanso m'madera.

PATA imathandizanso kupanga mabizinesi kudzera muzochitika zake, luntha, kulumikizana, ndi maukonde. Umembala wa PATA umafalikira kudera lonse lachikhalidwe komanso zachilengedwe, kuyambira kumayiko ena mpaka maboma am'matauni; ndi mabizinesi ang'onoang'ono kupita kumayiko ambiri. Pogwirizanitsa mabungwewa pansi pa ambulera imodzi, PATA ikupereka chitsanzo cha mawu oti 'umodzi muzosiyana.

Makamaka, PATA yapereka utsogoleri wolimbikitsa panthawi yamavuto, monga Bomba la Bali mu 2002; SARS mu 2003; ndi tsunami ya Boxing Day ya 2004. Ndikugwira ntchito monga Vice Prezidenti wa PATA kuchokera ku 2002-2006, ndikukumbukira bwino lomwe PATA inayankhira mavutowa pokhazikitsa Bali Recovery Task Force; poyambitsa ntchito yothandizana ndi Project Phoenix yothandiza anthu kuti apulumuke m'chigawocho, ndikumanganso malo omwe anawonongedwa kudutsa nyanja ya Indian Ocean.

Lero, tikutuluka muvuto lalikulu lomwe lidakhudza dera lathu kuyambira pomwe PATA idakhazikitsidwa. Mliri wa COVID-19 wawononga kwambiri zokopa alendo ku Asia ndi Pacific. Ofika alendo adatsika ndi 84% mu 2020 poyerekeza ndi 2019, zomwe zidapangitsa kuti ikhale dera lomwe lakhudzidwa kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi. Mayiko omwe amadalira kwambiri ntchito zokopa alendo anakumananso ndi vuto lalikulu pazachuma. Kutsika kwadzidzidzi kumeneku kunawonetsa kufunikira kwa zokopa alendo m'derali, komanso kuwunikiranso zovuta zake. Kuchepa kwachuma, kuphatikiza zokopa alendo, kudachepetsa kwambiri mpweya wa CO2 pachaka pazaka zopitilira 70, mwachitsanzo. Kuphatikiza apo, malo achilengedwe omwe akudwala kwambiri zokopa alendo mliriwu usanachitike adayamba kuchira.

Chifukwa cha kudodometsedwa kwa mbiriyi, madera omwe akukhala nawo, maboma a mayiko, ndi ogwira ntchito zokopa alendo ayamba kukambirana za momwe angamangirenso gawoli kuti likhale lolimba kwambiri pazovuta komanso kulemekeza kwambiri malire a zachilengedwe. Panthawi imodzimodziyo, alendo odzaona malo ayamba kuyamikira kwatsopano kufunikira koonetsetsa kuti zokopa alendo zimakhala zokhazikika komanso zopindulitsa kwa onse ogwira nawo ntchito. Chifukwa chake, tsopano pali mwayi wapadera woganizira zomwe taphunzira m'zaka ziwiri zapitazi ndikukhazikitsa zosintha zomwe zimapangitsa kuti zokopa alendo zithandizire panjira zachitukuko chobiriwira, chokhazikika, chophatikizika komanso chokhazikika.

M'mbuyomu, PATA yatha kusintha "Crisis into Opportunity".

Funso tsopano ndilakuti kodi PATA imalimbikitsa "kumanga mmbuyo bwino” kapena “manga patsogolo bwino”? M'malingaliro anga, ndi omaliza - ndi utsogoleri wa PATA, titha kuyambitsanso zokopa alendo ku Asia-Pacific, kuzipanga kukhala zokhazikika komanso zokhuza anthu. Pambuyo pa mliri wa COVID, pali mwayi wapadera woganiziranso zokopa alendo. Kupangitsa kuti ikhale yolimba ku zochitika zakunja. 

Kuthana ndi zovuta zakusintha kwanyengo ndi kukhazikika popanga malo olimbikitsa omwe amayang'ana paubwino osati kuchuluka. Kusamutsa nkhani kuchokera kumalo otsatsa kupita ku kasamalidwe kopita. Kupanga mgwirizano weniweni pakati pa boma, makampani, ndi madera omwe akukhala nawo. Kulimbikitsa ndalama zokopa alendo zomwe zimatha kusintha komanso zopindulitsa kwa ambiri. Kupititsa patsogolo kulimba mtima posintha misika yoyendera alendo ndikuwunikanso mtundu wamabizinesi.

Mpira wanga wa crystal ukuwona PATA ikutenga gawo lotsogola pakutanthauziranso zokopa alendo ku Asia Pacific ndikukhazikitsa njira yomwe ingakhale ndi chiyambukiro chokhalitsa komanso chatanthauzo padziko lonse lapansi. Tidzachita izi kudzera m'mayanjano anzeru momwe mphamvu za mamembala athu olemera ndi osiyanasiyana zimathandizidwa kuti zithandize anthu onse. Ndipo nthawi yomweyo, PATA ikwaniritsa lonjezo lake lothandizira mamembala kukulitsa mabizinesi awo.

Kodi PATA ndingayitani?

Monga Tcheyamani wa PATA, ndidzagwirizana ndi CEO wathu waluso, ogwira ntchito, ndi mamembala a board kuti ayendetse nthawi zosatsimikizikazi ndikuwonetsetsa kuti PATA ikukhalabe ndi udindo wake monga mtsogoleri woganiza komanso kulimbikitsa chitukuko chokhazikika cha zokopa alendo ku Asia Pacific. Ndidzaumirira kuti phindu la umembala likudutsa m'magulu onse a umembala wa PATA, kuphatikizapo PATA Chaputala, mabizinesi ang'onoang'ono, ang'onoang'ono, mayiko osiyanasiyana, maboma, ndege, ndi mayunivesite.

Mundisankhirenji?

PATA ili mu DNA yanga. Abambo anga omwe adathandizira nawo m'ma 1970, 80s, ndi 90s ngati membala komanso wamkulu amandikumbutsa nthawi zonse kuti 'mutuluka mu PATA zomwe mumayikamo. Mu mzimu umenewo, ndathandizira ndi kutsogolera makomiti ambiri a PATA; ndipo kuyambira 2002 mpaka 2006 adakhala wachiwiri kwa purezidenti wa bungweli.

Ndinasankhidwa kukhala Executive Board kwa magawo atatu ndikukhala Wapampando wa PATA Foundation Board of Trustees kwa zaka zisanu. Ndimakhulupirira mu ulamuliro wabwino ndi kuchita poyera; mgwirizano ndi mgwirizano; ndi njira yophatikizira yomwe imalola kuti mawu onse amveke.

Zikomo chifukwa cha voti yanu yodalirika kuti mukhale Purezidenti wanu.
