But, the final paragraph does sum it up pretty well:
In Alex Garland's iconic novel The Beach, some intrepid backpackers discover a Thai island untouched by mass tourism and establish a utopian community, which later collapses amid jealousy, greed and violence. The moral of the story is not that paradise doesn't exist. No, the moral is: paradise does exist, we just don't deserve to live there. Until we do, there will always be Pattaya.

After reading the whole article and knowing what Pattaya looks like, It looks like a 50/50 chance for a better Pattaya in the future. Let's hope it happens. Tourists seem to be the answer - family tourists.
