Malaysian drone technology company MERAQUE SERVICES SDN BHD has partnered with Pharmaniaga Bhd to deliver critical medicines to flood victims across Kuala Langat, Selangor using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).
A joint statement said four drones took to the skies for three days, delivering critical medical supplies by Pharmaniaga to over 30 homes within the vicinity of Bandar Seri Ehsan, Banting.
Meraque chief executive officer Md Razalee Ismail said medical delivery using drones are more cost and time-effective without compromising the safety, efficacy, and quality of the medicines by maintaining product temperature specification.
Meraque and Pharmaniaga also worked closely with Malaysia's technical regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM), as well as the Malaysia Civil Defence Force (MCDF), to assure the UAV's safety and security.
