I agree with you Nick.But i rarely the Malaysian uses the HP, they prefer to use TTL instead.

There was a tender for 15 HP plus chassis last year - but the tender was then withdrawn until further notice. Then they began overhauling the current Volvo HPs. CME is also overhauling the previous batch of Isuzu Morita Skylift TTLs & returning them to service. I am not sure why there is a preference for TTLs over HPs.
Fadli, HP is Hydraulic Platform also refer as snorkel or booms and new names (because a ladder is attach on the boom) is combined platform ladder (CPL) or arial ladder platform (ALP)
