Barcelo Hotel La Jolla de Mismaloya is dumping sewer into Mismaloya bay and Mismaloya river...It's gotta STOP!
El Hotel Barcelo La Jolla de Mismaloya esta tirando Aguas Negras a la Bahia de Mismaloya y al Rio de Mismaloya...Esto tiene que PARAR!
The land that the Hotel sits on was purchased through corruption and bribes. The Hotel is illegally functioning on Ejido land. Ejido land is communal land owned by the villagers of Mismaloya. For years, the Hotel has tried to take over the entire beach, even paying off some Mexican police and soldiers to burn the eco-friendly palapa restaurants on the beach, because these restaurants take away business from their own "cuisine" and restaurant business.
The entire Mismaloya beach is Ejido land, under Article 27 of the Mexican constitution, it was ILLEGAL to sell Ejido land, yet, before Article 27 was amended by the TRAITOR Salinas de Gortari and NAFTA, it was ILLEGAL to purchase Ejido land and treat it as non-agricultural use.
The Hotel is obviously not making profit from agricultural usage, it is making profit through tourism, and it wants to expand their brand of "tourism" to the entire beach, even though it is already populated and used by the INDIGENOUS population of Mismaloya.
They failed to take over the entire beach aprox 25 years ago, now, their battle is getting stronger, their money and their power is exerting a broader political spectrum.
The destruction of the eco-friendly and cultural tradition of PALAPAS is headed for elimination. A brand of pollution that is unsustainable is about to hurt Mismaloyas habitat even further. When their beach condos, townhouses, and hotels take over the entire beach, then we will see how polluted indeed it will become.
