Today event was a good start in the beginning. I turn up at the client office quite early in the morning with full of spirit to start our journey early. Unfortnately they are to slow to assist us, partly I am blaming myself for not doing my proper planning thoroughly.
We start off heading for the first river nearly noon time. I swithched on my new handheld GPS and then I realised to search for the exact point is not as easy as I thought earlier.
We miss the first river and need to turn back to search for the right one. We enter palm oil estate and this river located in the estate. This is not river this is stream!!! no river traffic will use this one. It means that our job is easy, fill up the form and that's it.
After about an hour there we move out from the palm oil, this when the problem started. Our 4 WD breakdown!! the gear jammed. I suspected that our driver drove the vehicle at fast speed when the 4 wheel gear still engaged. The gear oil leak and the vehicle towed to nearest workshop.
While waiting for the tow truck part of the team hop on the client's vehicle to look at river no 2. There again we arrived a stream not river!!! easy job...
We continue back to Bintulu for night stop today and only achieve 50% of our expected work today.
Hope tomorrow will be a ggod day for us.
