Marine Dept directs company to locate wreckage of MV Setia Kilas in Kuala Terengganu

Tuesday, 19 Jan 2021 05:38 PM MYT

Eastern Region Marine Department director Hairizam Albukhari said the move was to ensure that the wreckage does not drift and disrupt the shipping lanes. “After the ship’s position is identified, there will be follow-up action involved, including removing the wreckage. It is in line with the notice issued under Section 381 of the Merchant Shipping Ordinance 1952,” he said when contacted by Bernama today.“This vessel is not an oil tanker and it uses diesel as fuel. The risk of an oil spill pollution can be said to be minimal, because it evaporates easily,” he said.
