I think it's time we pressure the Philippines to weed out this terrorist. We also offer our forces to help hunt down this 'scums'. Put them out of their sorry lives.

If need be, bring in their ally US to help out. Since they like to wage war so much.

Masalahnye....peruntukan ciput. Kalau ade beli byk2.....perjawatan plak takde. Ni dengar citer psl peruntukan tambahan je....perjawatan tambahan x de plak. Skarng ni proses pemutihan oleh JPA....nak buang byk lagi ade....nak tambahnye x de. Takkan nk amik kt unit lain....diorng pun nk pakai gak org.

Kita ni dah le strenght tentera skit....patut ade lebihan utk development drp management. Negara jiran strenght banyak....boleh develop lagi. Ape dah jadi dgn financial mgt skarng ni.... 5.6billion dh abih kt BR1M dah

Cause they have a supportive people towards their army and so they don't mind?

You forget the cost of upgrading the whole shipyard.
the current project pretty much benefits the future procurement.

MMEA To Obtain Additional Petir Boats For ESSCOM

Posted on May 5, 2014 by hafizuddinsulaiman

The Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA)’s fleet of patrol boats and vessels in the ESSCOM will be further strengthen through the deployment of additional Petir class interceptor boats in order to better boost the safety of Sabah’s east coast waters.



Nine of these Petir boats built by Dalac Marine would undergo tests by MMEA personnel to ensure their safety before being deployed. With maximum speed of 65 knots, these boats are able to covered 40 nautical miles of range within three to four hours during a single patrol sweep.

Beside deploying additional interceptor boats, the MMEA will expand its surveillance radars coverage in order to detect small, intruding boats approaching the Malaysian waters.

The MMEA also plans to establish two coast guard air stations in Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan with proposed aviation fleet of two aircraft and six helicopters.

The numbers of MMEA personnel deployed in Sabah will also being increased to 1000 men by the end of 2014 from the existing 800 men.

In June 2013, the MMEA received 10 Kilat class boats transported by the RMN Auxilliary vessel, Bunga Mas 6 in order to boost the coast guard agency’s strength and capability to maintain vigilance over the Malaysian international waters against the terrorists intrusion. (here)

The RMN itself is preparing to receive 12 additional CB 90 combat boats to boost the strength of the existing fleet deployed to Sabah’s east coast.

DALAC Marine had previously delivered five five new Rigid Hull Fender Boat (RHFB) worth RM 4.4 million to the Marine Police to boost the security levels of Sabah’s waters especially along the east coast of the state.

TNI’s Apache choppers to be equipped with Lockheed technology

Bagus BT Saragih, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | National | Tue, May 06 2014, 2:07 PM

US-based aerospace and security company Lockheed Martin has announced it had won a US$80.6 million contract, which includes the production of night vision technology for eight Boeing AH-64E Apache attack helicopters ordered by Indonesia.

The contract covers eight Modernized Target Acquisition Designation Sight/Pilot Night Vision Sensor (M-TADS/PNVS) systems for the US Army and nine systems for the Indonesian Army, according to a press release published at Lockheed’s official website www.lockheedmartin.com on May 5.

Indonesia is the 13th international customer to purchase the M-TADS/PNVS system. The contract extends production in Orlando and Ocala, Fla., through July 2016, the release states.

“Being able to 'bundle' our procurement with one of our Foreign Military Sales partners increases our buying power,” said Lt. Col. Steven Van Riper, US Army Apache Sensors Product Manager.

“The M-TADS/PNVS system is helping save lives of our US and allied troops by giving Apache pilots the ability to engage targets accurately, and by improving situational awareness,” added Matt Hoffman, M-TADS/PNVS program director at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control, as quoted in the statement.

The confirmation of the sales of eight Apache helicopters and Longbow radars worth US$500 million to the Indonesian Military (TNI) was made during a bilateral meeting between Defense Minister Purnomo Yusgiantoro and US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel in Jakarta in August, last year.

The deal includes pilot training, radars and maintenance. The helicopters are scheduled to arrive in Indonesia in phases from October 2014 to 2017.

The TNI has said it would base some of the Apaches in remote border areas such as in Natuna in the Riau Islands.

Lockheed states that the M-TADS/PNVS, which was fielded in 2005, is a targeting and pilotage system that provides Apache pilots with long-range, precision engagement and pilotage capabilities for safe flight during day, night and adverse weather missions. Lockheed Martin has delivered more than 1,200 M-TADS/PNVS systems and spares to the U.S. Army and international customers.

The Apache deal with the US marked a turn around in the Jakarta-Washington defense cooperation as it served as the largest military sale from the US since the country lifted its embargo on selling lethal arms to Indonesia in 2005.

Washington said it was determined to help build the capability of the TNI as part of its bid to enhance security ties with its Asia Pacific friends and reshape its role in the region amid Beijing’s growing military clout and territorial assertiveness.

Esscom exchanged fire with 5 gunmen in hot pursuit of kidnappers

KOTA KINABALU: Malaysian security forces exchanged fire with five gunmen after their boat was detected at 6.20am within Mataking waters off Semporna.
Special task force and marine personnel of the Eastern Sabah Security Command (Esscom) were in hot pursuit of the armed men who kidnapped Chinese national Yang Zai Lin, 34, from a fish farm near Pulau Baik off Silam, Lahad Datu.

Yang, who is a manager of Wonderful Terrace Sdn Bhd, was taken from the farm centre at 2.45am by the gunmen who fled in a boat towards the open sea.

Sabah police commissioner Datuk Hamza Taib said the suspects were believed to have changed to another boat with bigger horsepower before making their way towards Mataking waters.

"When security forces detected their boat, one of the gunmen opened fire forcing security personnel to retaliate while chasing them," he said in a press conference.

The gunmen fled towards Alice Reef, between Malaysian and Philipines water border, and entered Saluag village in the Southern Sibutu Island of the southern Philippine.

"Our security forces had entered the Philippines waters and were forced to withdraw for fear of their safety."

Hamza classified the case as kidnapping for ransom and did not rule out inside job.

He said two of the gunmen were wearing masks and in camouflage uniforms.

They were armed with M16 while others were in civilian clothings.

Ni yg bila punye ni...klu tahun lepas x salah china police commando menang...followed by palestin then china lagi

    this is sad. Should we just nuke this suluk   

Are you saying the rakyat is paying for the shipyard upgrade? Does the govn have any share in BNS? If the govn have share, it is okay to pump in money as part of additional capital invested but if not, it is not right to use public fund. Any examples of other country govn finance upgrade to private facility at the expense of rakyat?
