Illegal tourism projects have encroached on the marine protected area off Phu Quoc Island, threatening a number of endangered species.

 

In Cay Sao Hamlet in Ham Ninh Commune, authorities have detected bridges, restaurants, a fish raft area, a bar, and 18 bungalows built illegally on an area of more than 2,000 sq.m.

 

In An Thoi Town in the south, construction of four pedestrian bridges is underway with the builders encroaching on an embankment and pouring sand on the seabed.
