Hondoq ir-Rummien doesn't count

Can the Authorities or somebody explain why Hondoq ir-Rummien is never listed or advertised along with other beaches in newspapers?
Hondoq ir-Rummien is the best and the most visited beach besides Ramla Bay. It is the most popular beach, and also most important for Gozo when the wind blows from the west, northwest and north. It beats Ramla Bay and all the others put together.
Hondoq ir-Rummien has all the facilities that other beaches have in Gozo, and is the cleanest with less jellyfish bar none. Its waters are tested regularly and it is the least polluted beach of all beaches in Malta and Gozo according to tests carried out by the Health Authorities. There are road signs in Qala village for Hondoq Bay but that’s about it, many people never heard of it because it is not mentioned in newspapers with the others.
Is there some kind of conspiracy going on to help the developers build the proposed Qala Creek Project in what is the only pristine bay left in Gozo, and destroy it forever? Are they keeping this area on the low side of advertising on purpose?
If so the Authorities must be reminded time and time again that 85 per cent of Qala residents voted against this project in a referendum held by the Qala local council.
