To what extent do you agree that are black markets for foreign currency emerging in the caribbean?

I said I strongly agree and due to recent surveys on lottery scams and it allows proves that there is a black market, where locals would naturally prefer a currency worth more on the international market. Local vendors would sell trinkets such as souvieners , to tourist charging them in their currency , As our currency has been depreciated
And because there is no legislative action taken by the government and it is remincent of a parallel market

WOULD THESE BE SOME GOOD POINTS

This is a 10 mark question , I wrote more but this is basically the summary of points for it that I had, Is it right?
