wtf?

Okay, the phrasing in this BBC article is really awful. It talks about the Andaman islands, and an isolated indigenous tribe. And it has this sentence (paraphrasing an argument for creating some sort of buffer zone between the tribal area and the rest of the island): "[...] the Jarawas should be totally isolated from human habitation and no commercial activity be allowed near their habitat." Seriously, that article talks about these people like giant pandas, as if they weren't humans as well.

Oh, but it's so terribly exciting to be able to observe the primitives in their natural habitat! :P

Yeah. It seems that's why the contested tourism resort is there in the first place, that recently with that new road, you can encounter the Jarawas.
