I came across this quote in Arnold Bitner's Scrounging the Islands with the Legendary Don the Beachcomber:

Over the years, I have become disenchanted. It broke my heart to see what greed has done to change the face of the International Market Place. The true Polynesian atmosphere is completely destroyed. The delightful ambiance I had so successfully created has turned into conglomeration of displays of geeaws with the incessant sounds of hawkers doing little more than attempting to peddle their merchandise.
