  1. What happens to the MPAs?

    Can 16 SQN soldier on with only 3 aircraft or a replacement be sought in the interim if no new MPAs are on the horizon?

    Reply
    Yes they have to soldier on, no replacement have been funded prior to the crash. RMAF have to rely on the two Hercules with the observer doors or the leased King Airs in case of emergencies.

  2. These problems are cause by our own doing…never want to put defence spending seriously…thinking money will come easy every year….the economy will be good all year round…no need for serious defence procurement because malaysia have got no enemy and will not be at war in the near future….these are all malay mind set n mentality….NOW tersepit lah si kodok

  3. Totally agreed with RedSot. Government should consider security sector one of the priority in terms of budget spending. Present the white paper to the parliament and all the member of parliament should unanimously approved the increasing of defense spending in order to establish the strong and credible security forces.

  4. Happy new year Mr Marhalim. Thanks for the updates.

    The problem is not defence priority. The problem, as always in Malaysia, is misspending and lack of transparency.
