  • 5. Conclusion
  • In fulfilling mandate and functions, DMH

has been encountering various challenges.

  • DMH has been striving for its improvement
  • n both capability of human resources and

technical facilities (Instrument for operating use, standard and equipment for calibration)

  • External supports are the most key reliable

resources, DMH has to request for transfer

  • f knowledge, funds, expertise, technical

assistance, consultancy to be provided by development partners and government.
