Caveat Emptor - "let the buyer beware".

We put it on our Govt to protect us. But common... you know they don't and they are warped by the industries that live off of the bad choices of others.

If you undestand the above, you understand USA... how we've progressed to where we are today and can see the greater picture of challenges.

If you do not, you got some learning to do...

In other words, in this country, you MUST be a discerning consumer. Nobody is really protecting YOU, other than YOU.

The island is currently under de facto occupation by the UAE, who have also been conducting illegal tours which bypass Yemeni customs and entry laws. The tours have been getting good reviews.

The UAE said if they were to acquire the island, they would develop tourism and infrastructure, improve security and make the locals more civilized. They would built resorts and restaurants so tourists would no longer have to rough it in tents. They would also institute more flights and tour operators, and UAE customs and entry regulations would apply, so many nationalities would be able to visit visaless.

The island is often reffered to as "the Galapagos of the Indian Ocean", and is an UNESCO heritage site, home to a large number of indemic species. A biologists and geographers Mecca. However, it being part of Yemen puts most people off from visiting. Being part of the UAE, would certainly make people less apprehensive. However, locals argue that this would ruin the island's pristineness, and most locals don't want to be part of a more civilized country.

Me personally, I'd like this. I would visit if the UAE took it. It would also benefit the UAE, as it would become more interesting.
