This video delves into the growing dissatisfaction among Phuket locals despite the island's booming tourism. The core issue revolves around the inability of many Phuket residents to afford housing in their own hometown due to skyrocketing property prices, which have increased by 400%.

Locals express concerns about losing their cultural identity, being priced out of their businesses.
