Gili Trawangan is the largest of Lombok's Gili
Islands and the only one to rise significantly (60 m) above sea level. . The name of Trawangan originates from Indonesian
language, that is Terowongan or tunnel in english language, due to the presence of a cave tunnel built there
during Japanese occupation in World War 2.

Some of the first
inhabitants of Gili Trawangan were fishermen and farmers from Sulawesi.
Previous to human settlement Gili Trawangan was covered in forest and deer
lived on the island. Thirty years ago the Gili islands were uninhabited and
only discovered by the seafaring Bugis people from Sulawesi. It was only a
matter of time before the more adventurous backpacker types discovered the
islands and developed Trawangan into a paradise destination.
The positive aspect of Gili Trawangan is the island still
natural and then make tourist arrived in this island very enjoy. About that,
full facility and cheap expenditure. Beside that, Gili Trawangan free polution
because in this island applied prohibited reduction. Either one prohibited to
carrying car or motorcycle.
Negative
aspect on Gili Trawangan is very difficult to reach out for public
transportasion because roundabout member make a prohibited and arrangement can’t
be pulled to visit in this island so Gili Trawangan still to make the natural
island without ignorant people.
So,
my opinion or my solution government or mmber must make a pulling prohibited so
Gilli Trawangan everlasting still waked up.
