KUALA LUMPUR: Seramai 1,000 pelatih bomba dijangka tamat latihan Julai ini dan ditempatkan di balai bomba seluruh negara.
Timbalan Menteri Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan, Datuk Seri Dr Ismail Abd Muttalib, berkata 1,000 pelatih Pegawai Bomba Gred KB19 melapor diri pada 7 Februari lalu di tiga Akademi Bomba dan Penyelamat Malaysia (ABPM) iaitu di Terengganu, Sabah dan Sarawak.
"Pelatih ini dijangka menamatkan Kursus Asas Kebombaan pada Julai dan proses penempatan akan dilaksanakan di balai bomba yang terbabit di seluruh negara termasuklah Balai Bomba dan Penyelamat (BBP) Tanjung Manis," katanya.
Beliau berkata demikian sebagai menjawab soalan lisan Yusuf Abd Wahad (GPS-Tanjong Manis) di Dewan Rakyat, hari ini.
Yusuf ingin mengetahui sama ada jumlah aset dan anggota di BBP Tanjung Manis akan ditambah kerana sering terjadi insiden bot karam, kes serangan buaya dan kebakaran hutan di kawasan itu.
Ismail berkata BBP Tanjung Manis adalah balai bomba kategori D yang mula beroperasi 2018 dengan perjawatan seramai 28 orang anggota.
"Pada masa kini, pengisian perjawatan adalah sebanyak 22 orang dan masih berbaki enam kekosongan. Namun, kekosongan ini hanya bersifat sementara saja," katanya.
Mengenai aset tambahan untuk BBP Tanjong Manis, katanya balai itu sudah dilengkapi dengan sebuah Fire Rescue Tender (FRT), sebuah Volunteer Fire Rescue Vehicle (VFRV), dua kenderaan utiliti dan sebuah bot penyelamat (aluminium).
"Buat masa ini, penyediaan jentera, kelengkapan dan peralatan bomba adalah mencukupi untuk BBP Tanjung Manis menangani sebarang kes yang membabitkan insiden kecemasan atau kebakaran termasuklah bot karam, kes serangan buaya dan kebakaran hutan.
"Jabatan Bomba dan Penyelamat juga sedang dalam proses untuk memperolehi aset-aset yang baharu seperti bot penyelamat, jet ski, kenderaan pacuan empat roda, kenderaan angkut dan logistik serta lain-lain.
"Aset-aset baharu ini akan diagihkan ke balai bomba seluruh negara termasuklah BBP Tanjung Manis sekiranya keperluan adalah mendesak.
Menjawab soalan tambahan Wong Hon Wai (PH-Bukit Bendera) mengenai insentif untuk bomba sukarela, katanya JBPM sentiasa prihatin dengan keperluan bomba sukarela dan melaksanakan pelbagai program bagi menaik taraf kecekapan dan latihan kepada anggota berkenaan.
"Pada masa ini, seramai 382 pasukan bomba sukarela beroperasi di seluruh negara dengan 13,600 anggota," katanya.

Wong Hon Wai asked What Was The Ministry's Position in Regulating Carbon Trading Activities

Tuan Ibrahim: Putrajaya learned about Sabah's carbon deal from the news
KUALA LUMPUR: The Federal government was not informed about Sabah's Nature Conservation Agreement (NCA) which is under fire from environmentalists.
Environment and Water Minister (Kasa) Datuk Seri Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man who disclosed this in Dewan Rakyat today said this was a stumbling block for his ministry in terms of giving the public any details with regard to the content of the agreement in question.
He said the information received by the ministry was only through reports and written statements from representatives of the Sabah state government that were published in the media.
"The federal government was not informed, consulted, and involved by the state government in the negotiation for the NCA. With this regard, Kasa is not able provide a detailed explanation of the agreement's contents."
Tuan Ibrahim however said that if the NCA agreement had standards similar to internationally accredited carbon credit transactions, it would then have a direct impact on Nationally Determined Contributions(NDCs) achievements and the country's net-zero greenhouse gas emission aspirations.
"The Environment and Water Ministry also always welcomes the Sabah state government to consult and involve the federal government and other stakeholders in discussions on the NCA agreement and the carbon market mechanism in the future," he said.
Tuan Ibrahim said this in reply to Wong Hon Wai (Bukit Bendera) who asked what was the ministry's position in regulating carbon trading activities such as carbon trading agreements between the Sabah government and foreign companies.
Sabah's controversial carbon credit deal had drawn criticism from environmentalists as being a means to legitimise the surrender of two million hectares, or more than half of Sabah's forests for the pilot project.
It was further criticised as the role of the Singapore-based firm that was to receive 30 per cent of profits for the project had yet to be explained.
Sabah's Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Seri Jeffrey Kitingan had earlier said that the states targets minting RM5.6 billion, yearly by tapping into the forests through carbon credits and other nature monetising deals as a base.
He said the money was expected to be raised "without cutting a single tree, and at the same time, preserve and safeguard the interests of indigenous communities," while adding that it was expected to attract private funding of up to US$10 billion (RM41.8 billion).
Malaysia is expected to model the European Union in set up of their carbon trading market. The system was set to be developed together with the Finance Ministry, Bursa Malaysia and other stakeholders.
Tuan Ibrahim had told the Dewan Rakyat that the domestic carbon trading market that was in the works would be Shariah-compliant. No concrete updates have followed since.
Finance Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz had announced in October last year that the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) was expected to be launched in Bursa Malaysia in efforts to achieve carbon-neutral status by 2050.
