Our group was split into five smaller groups. One was tasked to built the weir at the start of the piping system. Another group was tasked to install the pvc pipes and another group incharged of hdpe pipe welding. The fourth was the wiring group to transfer the electricity from the turbine house to the Orang Asli houses. The final but very important group was our group of chefs who stayed at the boat to cook and also deliver food to us.
PVC Group. The PVC pipes were installed on a hillside of a very steep slope. Some of us need to use harness to install the pipes.
Some of the trees need to be cut to make way for the pipes.
HDPE Group.
The machine used to weld the HDPE pipes.
Our hand-powered winch to pull the heavy HDPE pipes. In the picture is an Orang Asli helping us. They also liked to take pictures with their smartphone while listening to hindustan songs.
Astro journalists were also in our group. They stayed with us for the whole trip.
En. Kamal doing experiments on how to bend the PVC pipes since some of the route involved installing the pipes at an angle (we didn’t bring enough bends).
Food for morning break and lunch were delivered to us from our chefs at the houseboat.
Weir group. Rocks were gathered to make a dam.
