Ira Wibowo Shares Experience Visiting Gili Trawangan During the Pandemic

Kapanlagi.com - The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic is strongly felt in various sectors of the economy in the country. One of the sectors that has been greatly affected is the tourism sector. According to data from the Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association, in April 2020, there were 1,642 hotels and 353 restaurants/entertainment venues that ceased operations.

The same thing also happened to tourist attractions. Several tourist attractions experienced a decrease in visitors, and some of them had to be closed. Last February, actress Ira Wibowo had the opportunity to visit Gili Trawangan. She shared her experience visiting the prominent tourist destination in Lombok through her Instagram account.

1. Being in a Dilemma

In the caption of her upload, Ira Wibowo wrote that she felt conflicted when visiting Gili Trawangan last February. On one hand, she enjoyed the quiet and peaceful atmosphere of Gili Trawangan, which is rarely experienced in normal times before the pandemic.

On the other hand, she was also saddened by the tourism sector being a victim of this ongoing pandemic. Ira Wibowo hopes that this pandemic will end soon and tourism will return to normal.

2. Always Adhere to Health Protocols

KLovers, let's make Ira Wibowo's hope for the pandemic to end soon come true. Surely, Ira Wibowo's hope is also our hope. Wherever KLovers are, #IngatPesanIbu (Remember Mother's Message) by always washing hands, maintaining distance, and wearing masks so that this pandemic does not spread further and ends soon.
