12 Keep all camera equipment in dust proof bags bull dust can get every where and damage exppensive equipment. Take spare batteries and film. Fuel Cards have little use except in the larger towns. This becomes very important when travelling remote areas and when travelling in convoy. UHF radios are more common with locals and HF radios are a must for long distance communications.
Mobile phones are of little use outside the major towns.
Sat Phones are becomming more useful but are still very expensive. 15 Rubbish always carry your rubish with you and only place in authorised rubbish collection bins. Carry a good quality Powder Type or Gas Style fire extinguisher and have it fixed in an easy to reach position.
