the actual people who work as cooks, maids, maintenance workers, etc. in these areas are trying to recover from the devastation. but ok.

i understand. the article itself listed a number of areas missed by the storm. it was those areas i'm referring to.

That's fine but the way this title is worded is incredibly insensitive
-
150% agree. and the article itself also doesn't approach it from the tourism angle. i'm making an assumption. a hopeful one.

I doubt it :/ I have fam on these islands but people just see them as tourist destinations
-
is your family okay?? i would have also included a link to help with relief efforts. but what do i know. hope they are okay.

They should stop where the damage is and when at port you go on land and help. Like habitat for humanity for islands.
