GEARING UP FOR EMERGENCY SHELTERS

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia Civil Defence Force (APM) is identifying strategic locations to be designated as emergency shelters, ensuring the public has safe refuge during armed conflicts or crises that threaten public order.

It said that, in line with Section 2B(r) of the Civil Defence Act 1951 (Act 221), it is also developing comprehensive policies and technical guidelines for shelter specifications.

“This initiative builds upon APM’s operational experience, most notably during Ops Daulat 2013 in Lahad Datu, where APM successfully managed public shelters across four main halls to support affected victims,” APM told Sunday Star in an interview on civilian preparedness during armed conflicts and other security crises.

The Lahad Datu incursion in 2013 was a month-long armed stand-off in Sabah, when about 235 militants from the self-proclaimed “Royal Security Forces of the Sultanate of Sulu and North Borneo” landed in Kampung Tan­duo to press a territorial claim, sparking clashes that end­ed with a Malaysian military victory.

“The Civil Defence Act 1951 (Act 221), Section 2B(r), formally empo­wers the APM to manage all shelters, including air-raid shelters and temporary shelters, in the event of an emergency,” the APM stated.
