Ok, who has actually seen the dugongs? Never heard of a siting when I was there and haven't read about a siting in over 10 years IIRC. I think they're long gone, you can blame all the local construction projects that produce a TON of runoff that pollutes the ocean.

Do you actually believe that the number one bread winner for Okinawa is the US military installations?

Also, seeing as Americans contribute less then 5% to the local economy, they would recover from the lost dollars fairly quickly IMO. If they developed the land into something useful that attracted more tourists then in the long run they'd be better off without the bases. While Okinawa is the…
