The floating houses are tied together and the image of fishermen at work are the reason why tourists are interested in visiting this area. The fishermen only pay attention on the sea and ignore all the eyes of tourists. The locals have hard living condition, they are difficult to reach the education, healthcare, clear water, etc. Children only go to school until 12 years old, then they will become fishermen like their parents.
