ARLA/CLUSTER: Agencias de Emergencia devem trabalhar com os Radioamadores

[João Gonçalves Costa]

Emergency Agencies should work with Radio Amateurs

The Straits Times newspaper reports that the use of amateur radio in rescues should be promoted.

They say amateur radios could be the key to communicate with people in distress and, therefore, collaboration between government agencies and amateur radio users should be intensified.

They quote Malaysian Information Department director-general Ibrahim Abd Rahman as saying that integration between the two should be encouraged as it helped the agencies to build good rapport and teamwork spirit. He said agencies like the Fire and Rescue Department, Civil Defence Department (JPA3), police, Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MRCS), hospitals, Royal Malaysian Air Force and the Department of Civil Aviation should work together with amateur radio users.
