Health Ministry spokesman Dr Ismuni Bohari refuted claims that senior health officials did not attend the funerals of Flying Doctors Service (FDS) crash victims in Sarawak. Dr Ismuni himself visited the families of the crashed victims in Miri and Kuching, and paid his respects to the deceased. He stated that Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad, along with the ministry's senior leaders, were present during the visits.
Dr Ismuni highlighted that his presence was not merely an official duty, but also stemmed from humanitarian concerns and longstanding connections with the FDS team, as well as his role as a Sarawak native and National Public Health Programme director. He urged the news portal to verify facts before publishing information and suggested legal action if necessary.
