Tourist facilities in Anyer<\/p>\n
From Media Indonesia<\/p>\n
While Anyer and its Carita beach have been intensively
\npromoted as tourist destinations, these places do not seem to
\nhave proper facilities (telephone, electricity and roads).<\/p>\n
Telephone facilities in Anyer are often disrupted for days,
\nand help from telephone authorities is not usually forthcoming.
\nIt would be difficult for prospective tourists to book hotel
\nrooms by telephone. We wonder when the authorities will improve
\ntheir services.<\/p>\n
As for electricity, power failures seems to occur regularly in
\nthis area. In general, only 10 days in a month see an
\nuninterrupted electricity supply. The Anyer office of the state
\npower company PLN has to cover a very wide operational area with
\nonly two regular employees, five workers who are paid a daily
\nwage and one motorized vehicle.<\/p>\n
Spare parts must be ordered from Labuan, Jakarta or Bandung.
\nThe question now is whether it is really beyond PLN to improve
\nthe situation or whether PLN officials are too lazy to do
\nanything about it.<\/p>\n
The frequent power outages are reportedly caused by a capacity
\noverload, the result of among other things, electrical power
\npilferage. Someone once offered me his services to adjust my
\nelectricity meter.<\/p>\n
The road from Cigading to Carita is generally in a poor
\ncondition. Pools of water are found even in Anyer itself. The
\nworst part is from Anyer to Bengras, which passes the office of
\nAnyer's sub-district head. I'm sure the sub-district head
\nconcerned has reported this matter to the relevant authorities.<\/p>\n
Hopefully, this letter will prompt relevant parties to take
\naction to ensure that Anyer will receive proper telephone,
\nelectricity and road facilities to make it a successful tourist
\ndestination.<\/p>\n
