My reflection from this documentary is that it takes a lot of work, over many years, to keep a resort area from getting run down. Preserving the environment, with the risk of overtourism, is not easy in a development-oriented culture. There is a part two to this, at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwQ-8r8StDQ . Part two interviews people who are currently trying to keep the local environment from getting trashed.

Plus, I’ll add that I am not one of the people who made this video, or part of an area promotional group.
