General Ali Fadavi, a Guard navy chief, added that the US boats had conducted "unprofessional acts" for 40 minutes prior to their capture, and that he did not consider the boats’ movements an "innocent passage," according to the Blaze.

"There’s nothing to apologize for," Biden said. "When you have a problem with the boat you apologize the boat had a problem? No, and there was no looking for any apology. This was just standard nautical practice."
Comparing to SAF , our trainings are harsher . You'll never know that you can get hypothermia during the normal Serang Hendap routines . Imagine lying on the jungle floor during raining season plus the midnight cold for 18-24 hours , your hand starts to get numb and you couldnt even feel your limbs . Damn I really hate latihan medan because of this .
Thats why all Malaysian Army are crackheads . Wanna compare us to SAF ? Give them any one of our RSMs from the infantry regiments , they would scare the hell out of the SAF .
come i clap for you but sorry harsher dont win you wars... neway, it will be an endless debate.. more like penis waggin without opening the zip
crackheads? more like pot bellies.. neway, i wont debate.. its not a conducive platform and it will be endless

Soldiers effectiveness is how they apply technology with the situation. Good manpower+technology integration wins the war.
Technology can be guaranteed, manpower can't. Even big budget and cutting-edge weapons can't guarantee battle prowess.
Saudi Arabia, with 250,000 military personnel, $80 Billion USD annual defense spending, trained by US military and arguably has the latest US military equipment still can't get any significant headway against ragtag Yemeni rebels with no air power and seriously bad equipment.

you're right, there're a lot of factors to access one's capabilities during peacetime... and to say one would be afraid because of another's harshness during training is a stupid statement, only a peenoise or noob would say that...

but to be fair to the saudies, its not an all out war..

It is a full-out war, its just that the Saudis and its allies isn't fighting an enemy on a similar level to them. The Yemen rebels still have significant conventional warfare capabilities but they don't have an arsenal as awesome as the Saudis have yet they haven't resorted to classic guerrilla tactics.
They are still large-scale attacks on both sides by mass infantry, artillery strikes, armor attacks and air strikes on each other (using fighter-bombers by the Saudis & their allies and with Scud missiles by the Yemenis).
In theory, with their better-trained military and their cutting-edge weapons & equipment, the Saudis and its allies should be sweeping the floor with the Yemenis in a conventional war (which is currently happening, the war haven't gone into a guerrilla phase), but they are barely gaining any headway.

nah, saudi is not on a all out war.. it is still a insurgency/civil war or sectarian conflict... usual with arab/middle east countries after arab spring and with the emergence of isis there it complicates matters
and saudis are kept weak, just in case one day they decide to bite their western master's hand....
Of course Malaysian will say Malaysian army is better than Singapore army, and another way around. Why need such comparison? . We're neighbour, we shouldn't scare each other.
Well that's not the case though . Since most of the forumers here are civilians , I would put myself in the same shoes though . But if you wanna have an Army point of view , I'd say every country treats their neighbours as "hostile" .
