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.
