Due to the huge growth of number of tourists in the area, there is potential for the degradation of natural resources by coastal development and marine tourism. At the same time, fishery related threats and natural disturbance, coral bleaching and storm, still occur in the area (Science for Management at Mu Koh Chang Thailand, n.d.). And as the island develops, there are inevitably issues with litter, pollution and destruction of natural resources. The locals suggest that is you see any transgressions, contact the national park office or the Tourism Authority of Thailand.
