A regulatory framework has been planned by the government to allow an
'airport' for remote controlled drones to be established which could
facilitate transport of urgent medical supplies and electronic parts to
remote parts of the region.
The government has
moved to set up a regulatory framework for remotely piloted aircraft,
popularly referred to as 'drones,' following investor interest to
establish the world's first drone airport (drone port) in the country
beginning next year.
Last month, Norman
Foster, a renowned British architect, expressed interest by his firm,
Foster + Partners, alongside business partners to build the world's
first drone port in the country to facilitate transport of urgent
medical supplies and electronic parts to remote parts of the region
using drones.
