SHAH ALAM: In the previous post on the delivery of equipment and items for the Army, I wrote that some of the things delivered were not mentioned in the release. I also mentioned that there were two foreign military officers at the ceremony which indicated that some of the equipment and items were donated.
I stated that if I got more information on the items, I would post about it. Today, I received confirmation from the Defence Ministry, that some of the equipment and items were indeed donated by the German government under the Enable and Enhance Programme.
