: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission has been tasked with exploring a direct disaster notification channel for residents, bypassing the use of Short Message Service , said Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil.
“In South Korea and Japan, when a disaster occurs, mobile phones automatically receive an alert - not an SMS but a notification that appears directly on the phone. This application is very fast. Fahmi said this at the launch of the Komuniti Siaga 221: Disaster-Resilient Community for Kampung Pasir Baru, organised by the Federal Territory Malaysian Civil Defence Force here today.
Speaking at a press conference later, he said the disaster notification system could be utilised in Malaysia by coordinating efforts with the National Disaster Management Agency .Meanwhile, touching on the Komuniti Siaga 221 programme, Fahmi, who is also the MP for Lembah Pantai, said it is an excellent platform for enhancing preparedness and awareness among local residents to deal with various types of disasters.
