Discussion $3$: Cancun case study:

$1.$ Murray s article stated that in a place where attractive coastal lands are the key ingredient in the recipe for success, concentrated ownership has led to concentrated benefits. The few that get the benefits from tourism $($or ecotourism$)$ are often foreign firms, or multi$-$national tourism conglomerates. It appears that the benefits of tourism do not trickle all the away down to the local residents $($and in some aspects even worsens the situation$).$ Why do you think this happens?

$2.$ What are the key lessons from the growth of tourism in Cancun s$?$ State your answers from at least $3$ angles $($aspects$).($Note: can be good lessons, successful strategies, or challenges, issues, failures that have not been sufficiently addressed$)$

$3.$ What would you do differently policy$-$wise $($in terms of supporting tourism development and enhancing local residents welfare and the region s safety$)$ if you were to serve on Cancun s City Council $($or equivalent organization$)?$
