MARTS Sets Another Historic Record By Participating In JARL Ham Fair 2025 In Tokyo

MELAKA, Aug 23 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Amateur Radio Transmitters' Society (MARTS) has once again made history by sending an official delegation to participate in the Japan Amateur Radio League (JARL) Ham Fair 2025.

MARTS President Mohd Aris Bernawi said the JARL Ham Fair, the largest amateur radio exhibition in Asia, is being held at the Ariake GYM-EX in Tokyo, starting today and ending tomorrow.

He said MARTS's involvement in the exhibition highlights its important role in the international amateur radio community, in line with MARTS's slogan of "providing service through radio."

"MARTS is represented by seven amateur radio operators from Malaysia, and they are not only strengthening the relationship between the Malaysian and Japanese amateur radio communities but also expanding international cooperation networks in the field of radio communication.

"This also gives them the opportunity to introduce the latest activities and developments of the Malaysian amateur radio community and exchange technical experiences with radio enthusiasts from all over the world," he told Bernama here today.

The Japan Ham Fair Festival, which has been held 47 times, is the only major amateur radio exhibition in Asia held annually since 1978, with MARTS first participating in 2017.

The festival is attended by radio clubs from approximately 158 countries under the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU).
