Koh Phi Phi experiences the typical island issues of scarcity,
i.e. water scarcity, land scarcity, energy scarcity. The freshwater
resource is limited and expensive. As there is no power line connecting
the island to the grid on the main land all energy are
supplied by diesel generators, which is a noisy and polluting power
source. Most of the island is a national park and the narrow sand
strip covering an area of 30 ha is historically divided among private
landowners. A 6000m2 plot is the only land owned by the municipality,
which challenges the scope of providing public spaces for
residents and visitors, such as parks and sports facilities. Other
issues of scarcity include professional and economic capacity. Of
the approximately 3000 permanent residents on the island it can
be difficult to find people capable of operating an advanced wastewater
management system. In addition, for long term sustainability,
the salary, operations and maintenance costs must be minimal
to fit the economy the local authority.
