Some 250 Malaysian peacekeepers are now deployed in Timur Leste folowing a revolt in the newly independent country. Our soldiers facing machete wielding Timurese and some rebel soldiers armed with Steyrs
Apparently the ROE meant that unless they imminent danger, they cannot open fire with their Steyr AUG, M4, Minimi, GPMG and other weapons.
I believed that the Malaysian contingent will swell up to 1,000 soldiers by next month. With armour on the way the numbers will surely go up.
I just hope that every one return home safely and the problems in Timur Leste is quickly settled.
