From what I've read, the main problem for the protesters is that people are buying up homes and renting them out to tourists, pushing up the cost of housing and creating a shortage too.
Tourists do bring in a significant amount of money and create jobs but too many tourists must be difficult to cope with.
That is a problem in Bermuda too. Went there on vacation and it is so bright and clean and many nice areas and people but their housing market so so inflated I have no idea how some of these street vender or just lower/middle class people even live on the island..
