Drone Academy Asia Contribute To Sarawak’s Digital Economy

    Drone Academy Asia crossed another milestone during the launching of The Drone Technical Centre yesterday at Chemsain Auditorium, Kuching.

    The launching was officialized by the Assistant Minister of Transportation, Datuk Jerip Susil who represented the Chief Minister of Sarawak, Founder of Chemsain Konsultant Sdn Bhd, Chan Woon Peng and Chief Executive Officer of Drone Academy Asia, Dylan Lim.

    In line with the progression of rural transformation and socio-economic riding on the Digital Economy platform, Chemsain Konsultant Sdn Bhd established partnership with Drone Academy Asia and DJI to set up a Drone Technical Centre in Kuching to capitalize on this advancement of drone technology.

    The centre will focus on the nation’s first drone simulators, DJI Enterprise Flight Simulator in the training programmes which are in compliance with the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) and internationally recognized by DJI, the world’s leader in commercial and civilian drone industry,

    This initiative is carried out in line with Sarawak Digital Economy Strategy to accelerate Sarawak’s economic growth, reduce socio-economic divide as well as to increase the employment of youth. Chief Minister, Abang Johari earlier announced his intentions of spearheading a digital economy initiative that aims to revolutionise Sarawak’s economy and industries, and spur socioeconomic growth and advancement.

    Kick-starting 2019 with strong initiatives like this goes back to his first winding-up speech as Chief Minister at the State Legislative Assembly (DUN), “The Sarawak government shall spearhead this digital development but we will leave it to the private sector and young entrepreneurs to do whatever they can do best to make a living and a name for themselves. We shall also not forget the rural villages, which we want connected in order for us to bring them tele-medicine, e- learning and e-commerce.”

    Drone Academy Asia is one of South East Asia’s best Drone Training Academy. With professional training facilities, and an experienced team of drone pilot instructors, they offer leading large enterprises, government organizations and educational institutes the highest-quality Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Training Courses.
