Time to finish the articles on the third day of travelling on the trip to the East Coast made end of 2010.
This is the Pengkalan Kubor immigration complex which lies at the northern border of the state of Kelantan.
Normally you could only get pass these parts with a valid passport and ferry ticket.
But ask nicely and they could let you go walk to the jetty. After all it is not against the law, unless you stepped into a boat to get across without a valid passport and a ticket.
For here lies Sungai (river of) Golok which forms the national border between the countries of Malaysia and Thailand. A look to the right, a look downriver and you can see the part of the river curving up north entering the South China Sea.
A look across and you can see the small Thai town of Takbai, a popular entry point for those intending to go to the region of Patani from Kelantan.
A look to the left or upriver. Notice the bigger ferry behind?
There's another jetty. It is for those who wants to bring their vehicles, cars and such across...
