According to the minister, this can be achieved, provided a good plan and strategy for the implementation is put in place. In his speech, he used Swiss Post as an example as the organization currently has an active drone project as part of its early Label program.
Drones that are involved in the project are used to transport laboratory samples between the University of Zurich and University Hospital Zurich. Swiss Post also utilised them at few more selected locations in Lugano and Berne. The minister also believed that the competition by Pos Malaysia is a proper avenue to explore the drone technology while giving birth to more local innovators within the drone industry. He also said that the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia will continue to support Pos Malaysia and MCMC’s effort to elevate the country’s ability in the parcel drone delivery segment.
