SEPANG (Bernama): Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail on Sunday (Oct 13) reminded volunteers in relief mission to Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, to prioritise their own health when in disaster-stricken areas.

She said this was because they were exposed to the risk of infectious diseases such as malaria, which normally spread after a catastrophe.
