SEREMBAN, Sept 9 — A video call lasting more than an hour with his mother on the night before the incident turned out to be the final moment for the family of pilot Captain Zainol Afiq Bee Sham, 31, who was involved in a helicopter crash in Sarawak yesterday.
His father, Bee Sham Ahmad, 59, said his fourth child of 12 siblings had a lengthy video call with his mother, Zaiton Muda, 59, on the night before the crash.
“He always called us, but the night before yesterday, he had a video call with his mother for more than an hour and a half, from 10 pm until after 11 pm... little did we know that it would be his last call.
“We only learned the sad news from my eighth child, who informed us that his brother had been involved in the crash yesterday afternoon,” he said when contacted by Bernama today.
Bee Sham said the last time they met was during the recent Negeri Sembilan State Election, when his son took a week’s leave to return to Senawang to vote before returning to Miri to resume his duties.
Meanwhile, he said the family was on their way to Miri, Sarawak, to undergo deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) testing and related identification procedures, as well as to obtain further updates on the incident.
“We were informed that all the victims are still at the crash site as it is located deep in the interior. We are still waiting for further information on arrangements to bring the remains home and, if permitted, we intend to bury him at the Forest Heights Senawang Muslim Cemetery,” he said.
Zainol Afiq leaves behind a wife and two children, aged six years and 10 months.
Yesterday, a BO-105 helicopter carrying five people, including the pilot, was reported to have crashed and caught fire near the Long Lellang Short Take-Off and Landing Airport (STOLport) in Ulu Baram.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM), in a statement yesterday, confirmed the incident and said it received notification of the crash from the Flight Information Service at 3.58 pm.
Apart from Zainol Afiq, the four other victims were identified as Dr Ainul Baraah Kamaruddin, assistant medical officer Alexson Adit, and two nurses, Debra Moset and Jessie Paya. — Bernama

在沙捞越发生的一起悲惨的直升机坠毁事故中，31岁的飞行员Zainol Afiq Bee Sham上尉是五名遇难者之一。
在事件发生前，扎伊诺尔上尉与他的母亲进行了一次感人的最后一次视频通话，通话持续了一个多小时，而这竟成了他们的最后一次对话。
他的家人从他的兄弟姐妹那里得知了这场车祸，现在正前往美里进行 DNA 检测和其他程序性工作。
经马来西亚民航局证实，这起坠机事故还夺去了艾努·巴拉·卡马鲁丁医生、助理医务官亚历克森·阿迪特以及护士黛布拉·莫塞特和杰西·帕亚的生命。
芙蓉，9月9日讯——昨天在砂拉越发生直升机坠毁事故的31岁飞行员扎伊诺·阿菲克·比·沙姆上尉，在事故发生前一晚与母亲进行了一个多小时的视频通话，结果却成了他家人最后的告别时刻。
他的父亲，59 岁的 Bee Sham Ahmad 说，他的 12 个兄弟姐妹中的第四个孩子在车祸发生的前一天晚上与他 59 岁的母亲 Zaiton Muda 进行了长时间的视频通话。
“他总是给我们打电话，但前天晚上，他和母亲进行了一个半小时的视频通话，从晚上 10 点一直持续到 11 点以后……我们当时怎么也没想到，那竟是他的最后一次通话。
“我们是从我的第八个孩子那里才得知这个噩耗的，他告诉我们，他的兄弟昨天下午卷入了这场车祸，”他今天接受马新社采访时说。
Bee Sham表示，他们上次见面是在最近的森美兰州选举期间，当时他的儿子请了一周假回到森那旺投票，然后再返回美里继续工作。
与此同时，他表示，这家人正在前往砂拉越州美里市的路上，接受脱氧核糖核酸（DNA）检测和相关身份识别程序，并获取有关该事件的进一步最新消息。
他说：“我们获悉，所有遇难者遗体仍留在坠机现场，因为坠机地点位于内陆深处。我们仍在等待有关将遗体运送回国的安排的进一步信息，如果获得许可，我们打算将他安葬在森那旺森林高地穆斯林公墓。”
Zainol Afiq 身后留下妻子和两个孩子，分别六岁和十个月大。
昨天，据报道，一架载有包括飞行员在内的五人的 BO-105 直升机在乌鲁巴南的龙乐朗短距起降机场 (STOLport) 附近坠毁并起火。
