Port Klang Views #3 - Along The Shore Of South Port, Port Klang.

Kurau said these will be extinct soon as modern shipping has no requirement of them. They were supposed to catch the ship's line for docking.

Cargo ship from Indonesia unloading goods. There are a number of such types of vessels plying the Straits of Malacca between Malaysia and Indonesia dealing mainly with the goods that are abundant in one country and not in the other.

These passengers were waiting to get on the board the jetty to Pulau Ketam (Crab Island). In the past, slow fishing boats used to be the means to get to that island.

A Ketam beauty looking on as a Ketam Big Size carried heavy box. Who do you want to be?

Kurau's kaki (members). He waved to them but then he waved to everyone. Some waved back. Others just gave him dirty look (he must have caught that fish they wanted).

These are definitely Kurau's kaki. A hat with sides that cover the sensitive ears, long sleeves, no sun block, no shelter, a little mad - had to be, under the hot afternoon sun waiting for a bite. I pity, Kurau empathy.

This ship won't be sailing anymore.

Whereas this rickety jetty looked like just about to topple over.


Piling is being done to build a new waterfront. Go there quick to have a last look at its untidy beauty. Soon you'll not see this anymore. You can see the Indian temple at the background.

Port Klang's Marine Department.

I apologize that the photos are not that very well taken from a speeding and when not moving rocking boat. No time to look for angles as the boat was constantly moving and scenery rapidly changing. Have to sit down or we'll topple over. Also need to keep hands steady as the boat cuts across water. Still, better something than nothing.

To be continued...
