The ~5.6GHz section of the 5 GHz block was excluded from the ISM band in most countries because it was used for weather radar first. It has gradually been released to WiFi use as the radars move out.
Unfortunately WiFi scanners detect 5.6GHz as unused spectrum free from interference and go for it without reading the rules

The Malaysian tax assessment system has to be about the most efficient and well run service provided by the government. We have a parallel religious taxation system to make life much more complicated and I still got this years refund in a few days straight into my bank account.

The devil is in the details.

But will this also get extended to include military and the recreational airfields?
