Ia adalah batu tanda Segenting Kra, kawasan paling sempit di sepanjang Semenanjung Tanah Melayu...
It is the marking stone of the Kra Isthmus, the most narrow place along the Malay Peninsular...














Batu didirikan kerana di sinilah jalan raya terletak paling dekat dengan sungai Segenting Kra.
The stone was erected as it is here that the road is most near to the river of Segenting Kra.

For information this river forms the natural border between the nation of Thailand and nation of Myanmar or Burma...
