yeah for sure. Here where I live, if you walk just a couple hundred meters to the south of the tourism area the beaches are completely covered in trash. So when the tourists are enjoying their wonderful sand with tons of bins, the rest of the coast is just garbage central. I feel like this is an "out of sight, out of mind" sort of country and in a way I guess I can understand why. THey don't really have any money.
It's really easy to point the finger and say "that's awful they would do that" but if we were to take away the huge public works budgets that exist in most western countries for just a week, their beaches would look the same.
