WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY BEAUTIFUL ISLAND

I am truly bumming about what's being allowed to happen to St Maarten.
Are they deliberately trying to destroy all of our natural beauty?
Tourist in Great Bay, are supposed to be on vacation, but they are
accosted by vendors on the street. These vendors are not local,
but everyone assumes that they are.
Vacation usually means relaxing.
Why isn't the VKS protecting the tourist who are here relaxing and trying to enjoy St Maarten?
These Boardwalk "Fishers", are worse than the almost obsolete telemarketer.
They can ruin your whole day,
and some with become verbally abusive if you don't buy their wares.
St Maarten has to put a stop to the blatant disrespect to the people who feed our economy daily.
