A LOCAL company has launched an air ambulance service to provide medical evacuation and repatriation for patients across Brunei and East Malaysia.
Hj Mahadee Hj Dollah, director of Kirpa Niaga Sdn Bhd, said his Brunei-registered company recently inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with two airline operators based in Singapore and Indonesia to offer the service.
“Critically ill patients will no longer have to wait for the next available scheduled flight. Now they can fly immediately for medical treatment abroad,” he said in a phone interview.
