Idolobhana laseLangtang Ngaphambi Nangemva Kokuzamazama Komhlaba

Isifunda saseLangtang siyindlela yesithathu ethandwa kakhulu yokuhamba ngezinyawo eNepal, ngemuva nje kwe-Everest Base Camp Trek kanye ne-Annapurna Circuit Trek. Esinye sezindawo ezivelele kakhulu kulolu hambo yiLangtang Village, indawo yokuhlala enhle ephakeme esifundeni, etholakala endaweni ephakeme ngamamitha angu-3,430. Kodwa-ke, le New Langtang Village imane nje iyinsalela yedolobhana lakudala lendabuko elabhujiswa ukuzamazama komhlaba okubi kakhulu ngo-2015.

Izakhamuzi zase-Old Langtang Village zaqala ukusuka eTibet eminyakeni engaba ngu-600 eyedlule, lapho zaqala khona ukuziphilisa esifundeni esiphakeme ngokwamukela impilo yendabuko yokulima. Indawo yokuhlala ekhangayo, evamile eyayidluliselwe izizukulwane ngezizukulwane yabhujiswa ukuzamazama komhlaba kwango-2015 kanye neqhwa elibulalayo elalandela.

Njengamanje, iNew Langtang Village inezakhamuzi ezingaphezu kuka-4,500, ezitholakala ngaphakathi kweLangtang National Park. Izizwe eziyinhloko ezihlala kule ndawo yiTamang, Sherpa, kanye neGurung.

Idolobhana LaseLangtang Valley Ngaphambi Kokuzamazama Komhlaba

ILangtang Village, etholakala endleleni eya emzileni omkhulu wohambo lokuhamba ngezinyawo lwesithathu oludumile eNepal, iLangtang Valley Trek, yayihamba kahle ngaphambi kokuzamazama komhlaba. Ibhizinisi eliyinhloko lalo muzi kwakuwukufuya izilwane, ezolimo, kanye nemikhiqizo yobisi (okungukuthi, ushizi we-yak).

Bethonywe amasiko obuBuddha namaTibet, abantu bomdabu baphila impilo evamile kodwa eyanelisayo, bedlula emisebenzini yasekhaya evamile, behlonipha izindinganiso zendabuko, futhi bephishekela impilo engokomoya. Ngemva kokuqashelwa njengendlela yesithathu ethandwa kakhulu yokuhamba ngezinyawo eNepal, ibhizinisi lezindawo zokuhlala lachuma nasedolobhaneni.

Abomdabu bendabuko ababegxile kakhulu kwezolimo nasekufuyeni izilwane nabo baqala ukwamukela izivakashi ezihamba ngezinyawo esifundeni ngawo-1970. Izindawo eziningi zokuphuza itiye zasungulwa ukuze zikwazi ukuhlalisa abahamba ngezinyawo futhi zinikeze ukudla ukuze uhambo olude lube lukhululekile. Abomdabu nabo baqala ukunikeza izivakashi izinsizakalo zokuhlala ekhaya, okwakhulisa amathuba emisebenzi esifundeni.

Njengoba imboni yezokuvakasha yayichuma, iLangtang Village yathola ukukhula komnotho njengoba abathandi bokuhamba ngezinyawo abavela kuwo wonke umhlaba beqala ukutheleka esifundeni ukuzohlola izindawo zayo zemvelo ezinhle kakhulu, okuhlanganisa neHimalayan National Park yokuqala ngqa ezweni, iLangtang National Park (eyasungulwa ngo- 1976).

Kodwa-ke, konke kwashintsha ngemva kokuzamazama komhlaba okubi kakhulu okucekele phansi idolobhana lonke.

Ukuzamazama Komhlaba Okubhubhisayo Okungu-7.3 Richter

Ngomhlaka-25 kuMbasa 2015, ukuzamazama komhlaba okukhulu okungu-7.3 Richter kwanyakazisa ingqalasizinda yesizwe. Abantu abangaphezu kwezinkulungwane ezingu-9 balahlekelwa yizimpilo zabo kulokho kuzamazama komhlaba okubulalayo, kanti izinkulungwane zasala zilimele.

Phakathi kwamadolobha namadolobhana anezindlu ezindala ezathinteka kakhulu, idolobhana lendabuko laseLangtang nalo labhidlika lonke idolobha. Ukuzamazama komhlaba okungu-7.3 Richter kwabhidliza isisekelo sesitayela sezindlu esivamile edolobheni, futhi abantu abaningi balahlekelwa yizimpilo zabo.

Abantu bomdabu bakule ndawo babesanda kugubha iGhawa, umkhosi wamaBuddha owawugujwa esifundeni, ubusuku obungaphambi kwesigameko esibuhlungu. Abantu abavela kulo lonke idolobha kanye nemizi eseduze babebuthene ukuzogubha umkhosi; badansa futhi bahlabelela kwaze kwaba phakathi kwamabili. Ngakho-ke, ngosuku olulandelayo, bekhathele umkhosi kwaze kwaba phakathi kwamabili, abantu bomdabu abaningi kanye nezivakashi zabo babesaphumule ekhaya labo.

Ngisho nabahambi ababeze ukuzogubha imikhosi babephumula futhi bejabule ngesimo esingokomoya salesi sifunda. Kodwa-ke, lapho ukuzamazama komhlaba okungu-7.3 Richter kuhlasela iNepal ngo-11:56 ekuseni mhla zingama-25 kuMbasa 2015, izindlu ezindala eLangtang Village zadilika zaba yincithakalo.

Kodwa-ke, abantu besifunda balulama kulesi sigameko, futhi isimo sasilawulwa ngandlela thile. Kodwa, into embi kakhulu yayisondela edolobhaneni elaqeda yonke iminonjana yempucuko esifundeni.

Iqhwa Ngemva Kokuzamazama Komhlaba Okubulalayo

ILangtang Village ingenye yezifunda ezahlupheka kakhulu ngesikhathi sokuzamazama komhlaba ngo-2015. Ngemva kokuba ukuzamazama komhlaba okungu-7.3 Richter kubhidlize isisekelo sendabuko salesi sifunda, abantu bomdabu bakwazi ngandlela thile ukuqoqana, kodwa babengazi ukuthi okubi kakhulu kuzokwenzeka.

Izakhamuzi, izivakashi, kanye nabahambi ababesezinhlungwini ngenxa yezimpilo ezilahlekile kanye nokuwa kwempucuko bashayiswa esinye isigameko esibuhlungu. Lesi sibhicongo saqothula ngokuphelele idolobhana lonke.

ILangtang Village yayitholakala ngaphansi kobuso obuseningizimu beLangtang Lirung enhle kakhulu (amamitha angu-7,234). Iqhwa elikhulu kanye nechibi eliqandisiwe kwakusesigodini esilengayo ngaphezu komuzi. Iqhwa kanye nechibi elisesigodini esilengayo kwakuyimithombo eyinhloko yamanzi ahlanzekile, kanti umfula onomsoco weqhwa wawudlula edolobheni ohlangothini olusentshonalanga.

Njengoba ukuzamazama komhlaba kuhlasela ngo-11:56 ekuseni, kwawa iqhwa elikhulu lisuka eLangtang Lirung. Iqhwa lalilikhulu kangangokuthi kwabonakala sengathi ubuso bonke bentaba buwile. Iqhwa laletha idwala elikhulu egqumeni, lashaya iqhwa, futhi lawisa lonke ichibi eliqandisiwe njengoba lalina kulo lonke iLangtang Village.

Abantu abasengxenyeni ephakathi yeLangtang Village babhujiswa ngokuphelele yiqhwa; abantu abahlala emaphethelweni edolobhana kuphela abasinda kulezi zinhlekelele ezimbili ezibulalayo.

Ngalolo suku olwesabekayo, abantu abangu-243 bafa endaweni encane ephakeme yaseHimalaya eyayilwela ukusinda ekuzamazameni komhlaba okungu-7.3 Richter kanye neqhwa elibhubhisayo. Phakathi kwabangu- 243 abashonile, abangu-175 kwakungabantu bomdabu, abangu-41 kwakungabantu abahamba ngezinyawo abahlola lesi sifunda, kanti abangu-27 kwakungabasebenzi bezokuvakasha abasekela amaqembu ohambo lokuhamba ngezinyawo edolobhaneni.

Langtang Village Ngemva kokuzamazama komhlaba

ILangtang Village yalimala kakhulu ekuzamazameni komhlaba ngo-2015. Ngaphandle kwendlu eyodwa kulo lonke idolobhana eyayimi iqine ngemva kokuzamazama komhlaba kanye nokuwa kweqhwa, ezinye zabhidlika. Kwathatha idolobha isikhathi eside ukululama esimweni esinjalo. ILangtang Village entsha yakhiwa ngamamitha ayi-100 ngaphezu kwamanxiwa edolobhana elidala, kusetshenziswa indlela yesimanje yengqalasizinda kunezindlela zendabuko.

Nakuba iLangtang Village ibukeka ihlukile ngokubukeka uma iqhathaniswa nezinto zobuciko zendabuko zedolobhana elidala, umoya walesi sakhiwo esihle sezindawo eziphakeme uyafana. Ngokungafani nedolobhana elidala, iNew Langtang Village inezakhiwo eziqinile neziqinile, ezihlanganisa izakhiwo zesimanje zendabuko. Ingqalasizinda ebalulekile esifundeni, njenge-gompas, i-chortens, izikole, nezikhungo zezempilo, yakhiwa kabusha, futhi manje idolobhana selibuyele enkazimulweni yalo yangaphambili.

Kwathatha cishe iminyaka emibili ngemva kokuzamazama komhlaba okubi kakhulu ukuthi abagibeli babuyele esifundeni. I-New Langtang Village, eyayisakhiwa kabusha, yabona lokhu njengokukhanya kwethemba kanye nophawu lokuzinza komnotho. Uma uhamba kule ndlela yesithathu ethandwa kakhulu yokuhamba ngezinyawo eNepal, usengayibona i-Lantang Village endala ingamanxiwa njengoba uhamba ngezindlela zakho zokuhamba ngezinyawo ubheke eNew Langtang Village.

Ngemva kokuba abagibeli bezintaba beqale ukuvakashela lesi sifunda, abantu bendawo baphinde basungula amahhotela nezindawo zokuphuza itiye ukuze bamukele izivakashi futhi bazinzise umnotho wesifunda. Ngo-2018, iNew Langtang Village yayisibuyele esimweni sayo somzila ojwayelekile wokuhamba ngezinyawo ezweni. Imizila yokuhamba ngezinyawo eyabhujiswa yizikhukhula yakhiwa kabusha, iqine futhi inamandla, futhi ukuhamba ngezinyawo esifundeni saseLangtang kwavuleka futhi.

Okwesikhashana, abantu bomdabu baseLangtang, ababengahlali ndawonye njengakuqala, base belahlekelwe yithemba lokwakha impilo, bebona amanxiwa anjalo abhubhisayo. Kodwa-ke, ngesikhashana nje, njengoba beqala ukwakha kabusha idolobhana labo liqine kunakuqala, baqala ukubuyisa ithemba lokuthi konke kwakungalahlekile.
