Build a big casino on Patong beach with a direct line with a skytrain from Phuket airport as a transfer to the biggest hotels. Build 200 underwater sea walk areas and build a huge latexfactory in kata. HUGE money for the big investors. Forget about a nice somtam with crab on a cosy beach at the sunstet in rawai for example. (already skipped it because of all the hundreds of transferbuses to the wiewpoint).
P.s Nikita bar is maybe still there. What a pearl in all misery.
