KUALA LUMPUR: Drones have once again become the “eyes” for authorities, especially the Royal Malaysia Police, to monitor the Covid-19 standard operating procedure (SOP) compliance at Ramadan bazaars around the capital.

A Bernama check at the Desa Pandan Ramadan bazaar this evening found that drone operations were used to monitor movements, as well as to give warnings and reminders to visitors through loudspeakers attached to the drones.
