Low Season = Less Tourists.

Article says increasing number of complaints from Tourists.

Are our Tourists becoming more organised?

A valuable asset like the beach should be protected from scammers, jet skis punks, drug dealers, hookers, gangs, umbrella/chair enterprises, vendors, passed out drunks, ladyboys robbing tourists and people throwing trash around.

And what happened to the maintenance budget?

Dead plants, exposed wiring, broken footpaths, rubble strewn about, trash everywhere.

Perhaps someone has realised that such action is required if they want tourists to continue visiting.

Personally, the prostitutes do not bother me (except to say, "hey, where you goooooooo." I am more concerned about the jet ski mafia. Were they arrested? I did not read it in the article.
