As if immune from the law, a Manager of Tiki Grove Gili Trawangan challenged the media crew to confirm the mistake that had been made by their party regarding the discovery of the use of waste (used cooking oil) so that it was reported as if the unscrupulous manager was not afraid of the consequences of the law.

LOMBOK UTARA (ANN) – Chairman of the DPD PWRI (Association of Journalists of the Republic of Indonesia) West Nusa Tenggara together with media activists ANN (AsiaNationNews) and Indonesian Events Media, to investigate reports from the SBSI Ormas (Indonesian Prosperous Labor Union 1992) regarding the existence of one company that sell used cooking oil to companies that do not have licenses; so that Dana as Chairperson of DPD PWRI (Association of Journalists of the Republic of Indonesia) West Nusa Tenggara, came down directly with the Investigation team to conduct an investigation into this allegation.
On November 23, 2022, Budi as the Head of Bureau (KABIRO) Asianationnews (ANN) North Lombok together with the mass organizations visited the company directly called Tiki Grove which is in Gili Trawangan Hamlet, Gili Indah Village, North Lombok District, and met directly with Ketut Ari Sanjaya As General Manager, then questioned with a number of questions related to these allegations.
Ketut Ari Sanjaya as General Manager at the Tiki Grove company Gili Trawangan said that “I really sold used Cooking Oil and I only kept the leftovers of used cooking oil then I used it to water the streets where there is so much dust and then I sold the rest to people who are passing by using a cart and the payment is also to be an additional meal fee for the Staff and not myself eating.” he concluded.
Meanwhile, Budi as Head of ANN’s Media Bureau with media friends from Indonesia Events and also participated in Irawan or familiarly called Gobah as a representative from SBSI NGO (Indonesian Prosperous Labor Union) 1992, explained that our aim was to come only to provide input and reprimand according to SE Governor (Governor Circular Letter) West Nusa Tenggara, number 510 the year 2017, regarding the prohibition to sell used cooking oil to people who do not have permits and this oil has also become a waste category.
However, it is very unfortunate that the General Manager of the Tiki Grove Company, Gili Trawangan, did not heed the warnings and input from the media and ORMAS members. He even asked to be reported immediately legally without thinking about where and what the impact would be.
Sadly, Ketut Ari Sanjaya as General Manager of the Tiki Grove Gili Trawangan Company involved the chairman of LANG-LANG to ask for the truth regarding the Governor’s SE (Circular Letter of the Governor), West Nusa Tenggara in his statement explaining “I asked Mr. Pendi as the Chairperson of LANG-LANG Gili Trawangan, related to the ban on selling Used Cooking Oil and Mr. Pendi replied, “It’s not a problem as long as the company owner allows it and how come many employees bring it home.” Said Ketut Ari sanjaya as General Manager of Tiki Grove Gili Trawangan.
Then the Chairperson of the DPD PWRI (Republic of Indonesia Journalists Association) West Nusa Tenggara, Searched for the truth of this statement via cellular telephone (Phonecel) on 27-11-2022 around 04:15 in the afternoon with Mr. Pendi as chairman of the LANG-LANG on Gili Trawangan related the information provided by Ketut Ari Sanjaya turned out to be incorrect and never even said so.

Dana, as the Chairperson of the DPD PWRI NTB, explained “By pocketing several pieces of evidence these have met the requirements to be followed up legally and for the perpetrators, they can be subject to the threat of imprisonment and fines according to Law number 18 of 2012 concerning food or Law number 8 of 2012 1999 concerning consumer protection and Law number 36 of 2009 concerning health. he concluded.
Dana firmly appealed to media partners, especially members of the West Nusa Tenggara PWRI (Republic of Indonesia Journalists Association), “Anyone who violates the law, who does not comply with the law, we will take firm action because of the creation of the law for the advancement of the prosperity of our country which this beloved.” he continued.
” And I will immediately follow up on a request from the General Manager of Tiki Grove GILI TRAWANGAN to be brought into the realm of law because our good intentions were not heeded even from his sentence he suggested that he be reported immediately so I feel as if he is above the law and challenging the rules and regulations alone.,
It has been clearly proven that the manager of Tiki Groe sells used cooking oil to people he doesn’t know and it’s difficult for sure doesn’t have a permit.” Continued Dana said.
Because the impact is very dangerous for quality, and hygiene and even has the potential to become a dangerous substance that will trigger disease, in the end, threatening the health of the local community and the halal and quality cannot be guaranteed.” He concluded. (Irwan)
