      @IamtheAbsurdist I will, but not on this channel - this is a politics channel.
      however, we use "ananawa" as a word to describe someone completely ruining something, and our politicians know a thing or two about "ananawa".

    I think tourism shouldn't be our cup of tea. Even tea is too expensive to produce with entailed social issues. This trade doesn't bring much benefits as most of the time they do deals and money goes back. Only the wages of employees of hotels stay back. Most of the time big hotels are also owned by entities controlled by big investors.
