Indonesian submarine KRI Nanggala-shaped panjut as display of solidarity


BAGAN SERAI (Bernama): As a show of solidarity and sympathy with the tragedy of the sinking of KRI Nanggala 402 in the waters of Bali, Indonesia, a group of six people have designed panjut (oil lamps placed on structures often made of bamboo or wood) shaped after the vessel, in Kampung Bukit Merah, Semanggol.

A spokesman for the group, Azizul Hafiz Mohd Nordin, 34, said that the submarine-shaped panjut, measuring almost 8m long and 3m high, was designed as a tribute to the 53 Nanggala 402 crew members who perished in the incident, and as a show of solidarity to the people of Indonesia.
