KLIA CCTV monitoring to be improved to address blind spots, says home minister

Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) authorities are set to enhance their closed-circuit television (CCTV) system to address any potential blind spots, according to Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. Currently, the airport boasts 5,000 CCTVs at both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, but the monitoring aspect of the system requires improvement.

Speaking to reporters after visiting the family of late Corporal Mohamad Nur Hafiz Rahim, who died allegedly by electrocution in Beaufort, Sabah, the Home Minister emphasized that the issue lies not solely with the CCTV itself. AKPS is currently in the second phase of operations, which involves procuring various forms of equipment and infrastructure, including CCTV systems.

The minister also highlighted the need to focus on the training standards and supervision of personnel overseeing the CCTV infrastructure.
