There is no machinery to replace manpower, and everything needs to be done by manpower. In addition to manpower, mangroves must be transported by tidewater. Sepetang Charcoal Kiln has the largest mangrove reserve in Peninsular Malaysia. In addition to exporting high-quality charcoal, it has also developed into an eco-tourism attraction.
