Dapat offers Malaysian Government free setup for SMS disaster alert

Local mobile interactive solution Dapat is offering to set up for free the infostructure to link all the relevant authorities and public broadcast systems to enable Malaysians to receive disaster notification via SMS, reports The Star

"According to Dapat spokesman Azli Paat, since Dapat already has an SMS disaster alert notification system in place and in use, the Government can use it for the implementation of the national SMS disaster alert. Currently the system is being used for public earthquake alerts.

The Dapat Gempa Alert is currently linked to the mass media like RTM's Radio 1 and RMKL stations."
