KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 25: The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) seeks to publish a new directive for unmanned aircraft system or drones next month.
CAAM deputy chief executive officer (regulatory) Zainul Abidin Maslan said in order to secure a bright future for the Malaysian drone industry, enforcement of new regulations would require repetitive processes such as registration, authorisation and surveillance.
Various other processes involved would need to be done online or to the unmanned traffic management platform, he added.
