Hope this following helps. : ) Absolutely. But one must also understand that a lot goes into making the first perspective fruitful. Humanize whom? Lets say the native population. To do so requires a range of infrastructure, and we are talking of social interjections such as understanding baseline values within the cultures, the unique bond between the sensuous and the moral (the same at a certain level), the ethic in be-ing. Its not simply about opportunity and being a vendor, although one may make a lot and name it as whatever, including naming motivations.
Everything is an opportunity--the humanization too. Why the delay in arriving at this realization. First of all is it a recent realization. Does it dovetail with other fears, and and known lack. For sure, barely unique individuals, the Church hierarchy has not managed to convey humanism and humanization, the latter in any case has the sound of the industrial, like bringing in the heavy machinery; or seeing that change perhaps can be brought about through a tourism functioning in some way to humanize what was lost in the Being, and in be-ing by a lack, loss, erosion of humanity; besides the inability to be good and brilliant shepherds. The brilliance of the shepherd is what one expects--if the sheep could talk, they'd say that. On the second perspective: Luxury tourism is not always what it is and if its truly high-end then its proponents would be comfortable with what they earn and not feel threatened at every sneeze. Friends recently had a wedding in the US Virgin Islands, and they shared that there were are tons of deals to suit various pockets, and DEPENDING on where you are in time, one finds the DEAL luxurious. This is the point. Tp even understand something one has to be able to see. Most cannot (and I stress this often). I feel these conjectures, findings, observations should always have supporting evidence. Even posting a short brief which is open-ended with a bit of pro and a bit of con on either side comes across--the post I mean, as coming from a devils advocate. One good cop and one bad cop MAKES TWO BAD COPS. The Church dropped the ball long back, and much as I pray for the Pope (I do)--the ball was still dropped big time. ++++++++++++ venantius j pinto Message: 1 > Date: Sat, 28 Jul 2012 03:33:19 +0530 > From: Frederick FN Noronha * ????????? ???????? * ??????? ??????? > <[email protected]> > To: "Goa's premiere mailing list, estb. 1994!" > <[email protected]> > Subject: [Goanet] On tourism... > > > There are two perspectives (on) global tourism today.
