Now just imagine if you got duped into staying here only to find out that your resort or hotel is near absolutely nothing other than closed shops?

Yooo, even the very thought if this is very creepy. Imagine even buying a home there, only to move with your family and be the only ones in the entire island.

I wonder how this very costly mistake could have happened. And to think of the huge amount of money put into this investment, only to see it flop just like that.

But then again, what about the Sun world. Do a lot of tourists go there?

Sun World appears to be the ONLY reason anyone goes there but I think they massively over-estimated the amount of people that would be interested in seeing that.

Just like anything else, the official word blames the lack of interest on Covid, but to me it seems like it was just too much, too fast as is often the case in South East Asia.

You don't say. These kinds of things happen often in South East Asia? That ought be a pain.

well i don't want to speak for everyone's government but just about anywhere I have ever been when something looked like it was going to be even a little bit popular it would end up overdeveloped very quickly until it was basically ruined... this goes for any industry as well. If it is determined that a part of town can support a couple of coffee shops or a massage shop you can bet your bottom dollar that the masses are going to put so many of these things in that area that none of them can survive any longer.
