| Charcoal in <b>Kuala Sepetang</b>, Perak « S A M S U L S A I D <b>...</b> Posted: 30 Sep 2011 02:27 AM PDT Forty tons of mangrove wood are loaded into the kiln and it takes 26 to 30 days to produce 10 tons of charcoal. The village industry is more than 70-years-old and the end product is an expensive high grade charcoal, most of which is exported to Japan where charcoal is valued as a water filter and moisture absorbant. The mangrove forests in Kuala Sepetang have been sustainably managed for 100 years and a 30-year rotational system allows the mangrove to regenerate naturally.
Workers from Charcoal factory earn about RM45 per day, starting at 8 am and depending on the completion of the separation process of charcoal from the furnace. Charcoal factory in Kuala Sepetang located in the northwestern Malaysian state of Perak, 300 km (186 miles) north of Kuala Lumpur September 30, 2011
