~Gringolandia~

                         
                 Gringolandia are called by the locals of Cancuns. The area in which a part if Quintana Roo, one state of Mexico, previously referred to "Empty Quarter" turn to a highly tourism industrial site for both outsider to come and enjoy their holidays here, for example and insider, for Mexican to move domestically to find a job opportunities here. Since the project area's been developed a lot, the influx of people also dramatically high, but the inequality is still very high as well !!!!

                          The empty area could turn into the major source of national income, when the government heavily facilitate the area to be a top tourist attraction, but that economically successful have to trade with the widening gap between the rich and the poor in the society. The development is needed for the country, but would that really bring the happiness for the people in the country? There'll always be an argument for any development project, since it has to benefits some and hurts some, where is the right balance?

                          Generally, to promote development, the 'already high developed area' seems to get more attention than the place far from any development, because of the popularity of the higher class citizen or whatnot, then the argument arise that to do that it'll only widening the gab between the rich and the poor. But to do otherwise, like in the example of 'Gringolandia' that government chose to upgrade and urbanize the run down or empty area to a place where there's economic return, seems to also have a problem of creating gap between rich and poor within the Cancuns area as well.

                           Then, I came to realize that what's really a right thing to do, since every move (of the government development plan) generate disparity of people. Isn't a development should bring a social equality? 

                           I, personally, praise for what Mexican government has done that focusing on the underdeveloped land than the already-developed land for the development project. To be clear on my standpoint, if I have to make a decision of which province of Thailand will be a place where the development project (for example, the computers provided for all the primary school kids) takes place, between Bangkok and CheangRai, I would just simply pick the second choice. The reason is that too many development project has already focused on Bangkok which easier to implement and more obvious in degree of the outcome, but no one really care about places where electricity haven't reach yet...
