There are many nature loving tourists ...Hi Pauline,<br />There are many nature loving tourists out there seeking back-to-basic holidays or I would say, nature loving tourists spending their holidays in a protected natural heritage with sustainable development. <br />Unfortunately, Langkawi is slowly being turned into an island for the rich. It is already happening now. The beautiful beaches and the lush greenery rainforest are confined to luxurious resorts. <br />Simply to say, if one wants to relax in such natural environment, you have to pay a lot of $$$. In future, there is no such thing as nature for all. No $$$ = no nature.<br />Unless, there is a National park on Langkawi. But for now, there are no plans for such.Dreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08797658135561940402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382539233184523416.post-17226424649939874332011-09-10T10:19:11.394+08:002011-09-10T10:19:11.394+08:00Luxurious accommodation n its development is fuele...Luxurious accommodation n its development is fueled by demand. If demand stops supply stops. How many so-called nature loving tourists actually seek back-to-basics holidays? They want their aircond rooms with jacuzzi, astro, fancy toilets n piña coladas by d infinity pool. PaulineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
