I see nothing wrong with the article, its just highlighting the juxtaposition of destruction on one side and partying on the other. However if the one side economy relies on tourism you just can't turn if off. The world might not like carbon emissions but you don't see the Saudi's turning off their oil industry.

The DR's first priority is to look after itself and its own economy and tourism is a big part of that so the DR needs to press on. Cuba and Jamaica are not that far away from Haiti, simply separated by water, are they expected to tone down the partying too? Everyone needs to do what they need to do.
