Tanker

Transporting fuel for the logging industry is a very dangerous business. Diesel and petrol that are needed to run the machineries are transported by tankers like the one shown in this pic.

The tankers begin their journey all the way from Sibu and this could take days to reach their final destination.

This transport vessels usually go upstream when the water level in river is high. When rain comes and the river level rises, then you'll see these vessels making their trips upriver. Over the shot period when the water level is high and suitable for navigation........you'll see a lot of these tankers, day and night.

Help Needed

These are navigational markers are found and seen along the Rejang river, especially along the Tanjong Manis- Sarikei route.


As seen from certain angle, the markers look like these. These markers are also equipted with navigational lights which are powered by solar panels.

The perimeter surrounding these markers are regularly cleared and prevents the outgrowth from obstructing the view.

To me,these navigational markers are still a mistery. What are the meaning of these signs? Can some one help me out?
