GLOBAL TERRORISM WARNING
You should be aware of the risk
of indiscriminate terrorist attacks in
public places anywhere in the world. Be
vigilant, and take sensible precautions.
The
concrete runway and affiliated facilities left
behind by the British were opened as a domestic
airport for 20 seater small planes shortly after the
British left . Regular flights between Male' were
begun a few years later and the holiday village
developed to accommodate foreign tourists. Hangers
and maintenance buildings left behind by the British
were taken up to develop several garment factories.
The
holiday resort on Gan, Equator Village with 78 rooms
is quite different to all the others in the
Maldives. The rate of the development has picked up
considerably since Kaimoo Travels in Male' took over
the hotel. Plans to revive the 18 hole golf course
maintained by the British were shelved as some of
the fairways were around the runway security area.
Gan
Island is completely different!
