PEKAN: The authorities will have to quickly decide on what to do with the shipwreck in Paloh Hinai here before the river swallows it up again at the end of the dry season.

National Heritage Department senior museum assistant (Underwater Archaeology Section) Khairil Amri Abdul Ghani said as the wreck of SS Amherst was located right in the middle of the river, it might get submerged again should there be heavy rain.
