October 19, 2025
The WHO EMT verification team comprising the below undersigned members visited MDMC on October 18–19, 2025 in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
Using the agreed standards outlined in the document “Classification and Minimum Standards for Emergency Medical Teams” (2021), the team confirms that MDMC has demonstrated to meet the principles and core standards of an internationally deployable EMT, and the technical standards of an organization capable of deploying as an EMT Type 1 Fixed.
The team congratulates MDMC for the great improvement developed during the last months in the clinical, logistics and WASH aspects to meet the minimum standards. We thank them for their organization and support to the verification visit and for their commitment to improving the quality of EMT response.
Yours sincerely,
WHO EMT verification team

Ordnance Survey settles in 'David and Goliath' design dispute with family thetimes.com/business-money/… (£)

ALT The company said: "Ordnance Survey and Rubbaglove have reached an amicable resolution to a dispute between them regarding the designs of OS's picnic blankets. The terms of the settlement are confidential to the parties and their advisers." It is thought the Eatons have received £44,000 as part of the settlement but that their legal costs exceeded £70,000. While lost sales are difficult to quantify, sources familiar with the matter suggested that they could run to "hundreds of thousands of pounds" as Pacmat sales stalled after the rival products were launched. Ordnance Survey also agreed not to sell a competing product for ten years.

There are lots of oysters at Cancale! I’m not a fan of oysters but all those empty shells show that lots of people are! ❤️ Cancale though. Then spent the afternoon relaxing on the beach. Look at our lovely blanket 😃. #cancale #oysters #beach @Rubbastuff #pacmat @cancaletourisme

A little lie down at the top of the climb… and a pint. Danehill… should have been a clue in the name.
A lovely cycle through Sussex lanes.
