KUANTAN: A hybrid Fire and Rescue Station will be built near the Tioman Island Marine Park to enable the team to operate both on land and at sea, making it the first fire station in the country to implement such a concept.
Pahang Fire and Rescue Department director Datuk Dr Wan Mohamad Zaidi Wan Isa said the hybrid concept is being adopted to overcome the challenges faced by firefighters when responding to emergencies in areas of the island that lack land access.
