I can only say that mass tourism is bad for everyone except criminals and
corrupt businessman. Bad for ordinary locals, bad for the tourist and bad for the environment. Bubble sare created with priices for land etc skyrocketing out of price range of even most westerners let alone locals.
most olf the "locals" in phuket hate what has happende to their home.
"where is the nature now "is a common phrase used amongst them.
Alos it mneans that locals give up other lievlihood s and then are at the mercy of the fickle tourist trade.
Bohol is next
