Tourism Minister Arief Yahya is currently in Palembang, South Sumatra. However it does not stop him from doing online-monitoring of the post-disaster situation in Lombok. He keeps updating foreign and domestic tourists who are connected to Lombok destinations, with the newest development.
Arief Yahya also ensures 3A, Access, Amenitas and Attractions are available. He considered the 3 aspects as the heart of a tourism destination. "Today, Wednesday, August 8, 2018, I’d like to greet 3 figures who went directly to Lombok and Gili Islands" said Arief Yahya.
The three are the Armed Forces General Commander Hadi Tjahjanto, National Police Chief General. Tito Karnavian, and Minister of Health Nila Djuwita F. Moeloek. "Thank you very much, today you have joined our team on Gili Trawangan, Gili Air and Gili Meno. They found and picked 66 tourists, 33 domestic and 33 foreign tourists left on the beautiful island, "said Tourism Minister Arief Yahya.
Today the 66th has also been transported to the island of Lombok, and hope there is nobody left behind. According to the report of the Center Crisis Team Chairman Guntur Sakti who is still in Lombok, there are 29 foreign tourists who have departed from Bangsal using the boat KMP Ganggari 189. They were heading to Padang Bai Bali Port at 13.30 Central Indonesia Time.
"I emphasize again here: It’s free of charge! Nobody should pay anything to be picked up and transported, "Arief Yahya said, clarifying a lot of confusing information about the shuttles provided the Indonesian government.
Even if there are still foreign nationals on Gili Islands, that's because they chose not to be evacuated. They guard their properties, such as resorts, restaurants and diving equipment. "Once again, thank you for the quick response in assisting the tourists on the islands," said Minister Arief Yahya.
Arief continues to coordinate with Foreign Affairs Minister Retno Marsudi, who also activated the help desk for foreigners with mobile number +6287864124151. "I check once again, the call center number works well, excellent service," said Arief Yahya many times.
