Rescuers work together in crisis


Aviation tragedy: Rescuers surround the wreckage of the missing helicopter that had crashed at the Chikus forest reserve in Perak.

TAPAH: It was a swampy and soggy area within a forest, but 16 years of experience as a firefighter came in handy for Mohamad Yunus Abu in the search for a helicopter which crashed near here.

The former deputy chief of rescue studies at the Malaysian Fire and Rescue Academy Central Region was among the first few people at the site of the helicopter wreckage at the Chikus Forest Reserve yesterday morning.Mohamad Yunus Abu (right)Mohamad Yunus Abu (right)
