- This happened only twice a month IE when there was full moon. During this time, there was high tide and the river level raised to allow the boat to operate.
This natural constraint limited the number of cruises can operate each month.
This limitation was a thing of the past once the river mouth barrage was constructed.
Now, weekend river cruises and hopefully future water taxis can operate daily as a viable river transport system.

Maybe we can bring back this type of river cruise with modifications. Brand it as a cultural night river cruise with dinner. To prevent our cultural treasures from vanishing, these 1.5 hours cultural cruises can have live pantun renditions during dinners.
By doing so, young people interested in learning the berpantun culture can be nurtured and employed on these cruises.
Vistors can also be allowed to show off their berpantun skills on board.
Will be happy to see your feedback on this idea. Instead of gondolas of Venice, we have our own romantic dinners with pantun cruises of Melaka.
