[CCTV Review] Ten thousand vehicles stranded in Hainan, what should we reflect on？

　　CCTV News:The most congested place to return during the Spring Festival this year is undoubtedly Hainan. So far, more than 10,000 foreign vehicles are still stranded in Hainan.

　　The superposition of five factors results in a large number of stranded return vehicles

　　Weather factors: No rare foggy weather in ten years

　　Hainan’s meteorological department said that winter is the season of high fog occurrence in Hainan. The Qiongzhou Strait is more foggy from December to March every year, and most of them are advection fog. This kind of fog usually comes and goes suddenly, generates and dissipates quickly, so it is easy to recur. The maritime department has to issue a suspension and resumption notice based on weather forecasts and visibility.

　　Technical factors: The ship navigation system is only an auxiliary

　　Since the third day of the new year, due to the rare foggy weather that had not been encountered in ten years, the Qiongzhou Strait has been suspended repeatedly. Some people may question, isn’t there navigation? In fact, the ship navigation system can only be an auxiliary means, and when entering and leaving the port, it is still necessary to use visual inspection to avoid collision accidents.

　　Capacity factor: reduced capacity due to collision

　　This time, there are more than 50 passenger rolling boats for transportation vehicles. If they are normally navigable, they can send 20,000 cars out of the island every day. However, a two-ship collision accident occurred in the Haian Newport Waterway in Xuwen County, Zhanjiang, Guangdong on the early morning of the 22nd, resulting in a decline in transportation capacity. It was not until yesterday morning that they returned to normal.

　　Passenger flow factor: nearly 100,000 vehicles need to leave the island

　　Since 2015, both passenger and vehicle transportation have increased by more than 15% every year, and the Spring Festival holiday is even busier. According to the transportation department’s calculation of the increase in traffic flow into the island before this year’s festival, Hainan needs to leave the island with nearly 100,000 vehicles.

　　Traffic factors: There are only two ways to cross the Qiongzhou Strait

　　The fifth was the traffic restrictions in and out of Hainan Island. At present, there were only two ways to cross the Qiongzhou Strait. If you didn’t take a plane, there was only one way by sea.

　　The stranded vehicles have been detained for about a week this time and will continue for several days in the future. Due to the stranded vehicles, some problems have arisen. Although Hainan has dispatched a large number of volunteers to help clear traffic and provide services to tourists, some tourists are still irritated because of the long stay. At one point, the large number of people stranded also generates a large amount of garbage, which brings some pressure to the environment. A heavy fog has stranded a large number of tourists. Can we only blame the sky? Is there anything worth thinking about?

　　CCTV Review

　　During the Spring Festival holiday, Hainan Province has experienced an unprecedented test in terms of tourism reception and emergency response. When the heavy fog locked the island, a large number of private cars were stranded in Hainan, and tourists were anxious, which brought great pressure to the tourism and transportation departments of Hainan Province. At present, there are still a large number of vehicles stranded, and the guidance work is still continuing. On the basis of doing a good job in the follow-up work, the thinking caused by this should also continue to be carried out in depth.

　　The level of local government emergency response has improved

　　The detention of 10,000 private cars in Hainan this time was caused by extreme weather, and there is indeed a reason for it. The relevant departments of Hainan Province urgently launched the first-level plan, the government departments performed their duties, and all civil servants were temporarily remanded to make way for tourist vehicles. These measures deserve our praise. Especially in the process of guiding tourists, many residents and volunteers on Hainan Island showed a strong sense of ownership, contributing to the guiding work, and working with government departments to ensure service, which made people feel warm.

　　Judging from the emergency response to the large-scale detention of tourists this time, the relevant departments of Hainan Province have done their due work. Although the results did not satisfy many tourists, the response and burst of energy of the relevant departments in a short period of time reflect the progress of management level.

　　However, thinking about the handling of this incident should not only stop at short-term emergency response, but also extend the line of sight.Examine the event itself from a longer-term perspective and a broader perspectiveEspecially in terms of "preventing" and "preventing" similar situations from happening again, we should have deeper thinking and greater actions

　　Hainan Island has limited carrying capacity, and there should be early warning measures in the future

　　In the eyes of tourists across the country, Hainan Island has its own beautiful scenery and unique charm. Every winter, especially during the Spring Festival, Hainan is a popular destination in the eyes of tourists across the country. A large number of tourists from all over the world gather on the island in a short period of time. Once they encounter special circumstances such as extreme weather, it is not a small probability that people will be stranded or traffic obstructed.

　　In fact, during the Spring Festival a few years ago, tourists flocked to some popular scenic spots in Hainan, and the phenomenon of crowding people has appeared many times. On some traffic arteries leading to scenic spots, the phenomenon of large traffic jams also occurs frequently. These phenomena have repeatedly reminded us that the carrying capacity and reception capacity of key scenic spots and even the whole island are approaching the limit. In fact, as early as 2014, during the holiday of Hainan Island, tourists’ self-driving tours exploded, and traffic in Sanya, Haikou and other places was paralyzed for a time. In this regard, Hainan said that it would introduce measures to moderately control self-driving vehicles entering the island. In recent years, the average annual growth of self-driving vehicles has been double-digit.Are tourists and vehicles really welcome to the island?

　　Logically speaking, Hainan is an outlying island, and the port can fully grasp how many vehicles enter Hainan, which also provides a certain information advantage for limited viewership.In the future, is it possible to limit viewership of these vehicles? How to limit viewership of these vehicles to ensure a better travel experience and not get stuck in the road?In particular, according to the meteorological characteristics, the Qiongzhou Strait has a lot of fog from December to March every year, and most of them are advection fog. Whether we should leave enough capacity for the possibility of extreme weather, and consider the number of tourists according to the degree of capacity surplus, these issues are worthy of in-depth study and discussion. In the context of Hainan to establish a data island and a wisdom island, such issues are prominent and urgent.

　　How to balance tourism development and ecological protection is worth considering

　　The detention of 10,000 vehicles in Hainan this time is not only a problem of tourism experience, but also the essence of how to balance the development of tourism and the protection of the ecological environment. Restricting tourists is not simply considered from the perspective of transportation capacity, but also from the perspective of ecology.

　　Some time ago, the Central Environmental Protection Inspection Group criticized Hainan for breaking through the ecological bottom line in some areas for economic development. Hainan later made serious corrections based on the opinions of the Environmental Protection Inspection Group.Protecting Hainan’s unique ecological environment is the public’s expectation, as is providing tourists with high-quality tourism services and products.

　　Hainan, as an island, has limited ecological capacity. At the same time as tourism development, if certain measures are not taken for the self-driving vehicles entering the island with an average annual double-digit growth rate, especially during holidays, once a large number of foreign vehicles pour in, although it can bring a relatively large increase in tourism consumption in the short term, it is not in line with the long-term development of Hainan Island? What impact will this have on the tourism quality of Hainan Island? These issues need more in-depth thinking and planning.

　　 It is a good thing to say that all things are in advance. In a large-scale tourist detention incident, we saw the ability of the relevant parties in Hainan to deal with the emergency, as well as the enthusiasm of the local people, and we should also see the shortcomings in it. Only by doing a good job of long-term overall planning and planning can we deal with various emergency situations more calmly and calmly.

　　If "island" is a treasure bestowed by God among the five words "international tourism island", it is man-made to do a good job in "tourism" management with "international" standards.From this goal, Hainan still has a long way to go and needs to work hard.
