Samui is turning into an absolute hellhole

Been living here for a year and this place is a hellhole. Plastic and trash everywhere including beaches, water, you name it. The locals are burning so much trash and everything else they can get their hands on daily now and the air quality is health hazard levels almost continuously. They're allowing everyone to build villas and apartment complexes at will with no regards for infrastructure or ecological concerns. Power outages are now becoming more and more common.
I can tell you 100% this is no White Lotus, more like Hellhole Lotus. Would not recommend.
