IPOH: It took a search and rescue team nearly 10 hours to reach a 48-year-old Orang Asli man who was bitten by a venomous snake while foraging for jungle produce near Pos Kemar in Gerik.
Perak Fire and Rescue acting assistant director of operations Shazlean Mohd Hanafiah said the rescue operation was hampered by steep hills and dense forest before the victim was airlifted to safety on Monday (Nov 17).
