The Civil Aviation Authority (CAAM) has issued a warning that the public is prohibited from flying drones without permission during the independence day celebrations held at Dataran Merdeka this year.
The ban was issued for safety reasons because Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) planes will be flying low in Dataran Merdeka airspace during the event. In order to avoid any unwanted incidents, this ban is issued.
The operation of drone activities in Malaysia is subject to Section 4 of the Civil Aviation Act 1969 (Act 3), Regulation 98, 140-144, Malaysian Civil Aviation Regulations (MCAR 2016) and Civil Aviation Directives (CADs).
