i dont claim anything...

What I hope can add as an improvement to the ATM is in addition to KAGAT, to develop the establishment of religious chaplains for, at least, soldiers of the Christian faith (monotheist religion like Islam and Christianity perhaps easier, other faiths like Hindu or Taoisme or other chinese folk religions possibly a bit problematic to have chaplains, as most are polyeisthic and have no central deity. Different people worship different deities within the same religion.)

I find it strange that there is currently no provision for worship and religious services for soldiers of other faiths, especially with Christians (especially from the Sabah and Sarawak natives) a major presence in the Ranger Regiments.

Making a move like this would probably strengthen recruitment from other races to join the military. As of now most other races see it to be a mostly Islamic Malay-exclusive army.

Even US military with very small number of Muslim soldiers (5,000-6,000) have Islamic imams to lead prayers and administer religious matters.

you prolly shud know there is a church and christian services provided for the large sabah/sarawak christian natives inside the terendak camp which is the largest military camp in msia
if there is substantial followers the army will provide it to them i guess

Wah, seriously I did not know this.

Is this just happen to be a church inside the camp or there are some ordained military chaplains in the many army camps and in the field? Also are they under an official military establishment i.e KAGAT?

i think none as its not as regimented like the kagat
even if you look back at the history of atm, religious service is actually a recent thing
kagat only formed in the 80s which is like only 30 years ago

rare for army indeed

cukur bukan jadi BG jaga stor and logistic

Are u kidding me?

U claim a military man but never seen military religious service?

actually bg in charge of support is a big thing in sg... albeit cant be promoted further in the military but once they retire, they are highly sought after in the private sector.. but still good to know... any indian flag officer around?

This guys is screwed

Strong leadership is important, and more so given the evolving security threats. Join us as we speak to Officer Cadet (OCT) Jang Wook and OCT Kimberley Chia about their 38-week journey at the Officer Cadet School, Singapore, and the responsibilities that come with being newly commissioned officers of the Singapore Armed Forces.



Apparently Lt. Jang Wook is the son of Korean Jang Jung, Perak FA and Sg Lions Defender that had won the Malaysian Cup twice and even went on to coach Perak FA. Why is his son screwed? Because he might have to serve NS both in Sg and Korea.

I think what he is saying is that for all of its high-tech status, the SAF remained unbloodied by any sort of active conflict.

Meanwhile, the Malaysian Armed forces has been literally in some sort of armed conflict in one form or another for probably nearly 2/3 of its existence. From the Konfrontasi era, the Emergency era and the Communist Insurgency era (plus the recent Lahad Datu incident), Malaysian military and police personnel have fought and died in actual combat.

Malaysian soldiers and police paramilitary units have patrolled deep jungles actually crawling with hostile enemies, plus lethally hidden landmines and booby traps in the undergrowth. Helicopters have actually transported soldiers to hot landing zones and evacuated the dead & wounded from search and destroy operations. Artillery units actually shelled enemy positions. TUDM planes actually flew ground attack missions and actually bombed & killed people. The Navy and Marine police actually patrolled riverways to interdict enemy movements and supply efforts.

As for the number of enemies, by the CIA and US State Dept estimates, in 1976 there are around 2,500 armed and trained communist insurgents in Malaysia. This is thought to be the peak of the communist insurgent's numbers as the end of the Vietnam war greatly bolstered the reputation and support of the Malaysian communists.

As comparison, during the peak of the 1950s Emergency era, there was probably around 6,000 armed and trained insurgents.

To try and get a picture of that, imagine the Lahad Datu incident, multiply the enemy forces by 25 and make it last for 21 years.

West Java police foils terrorist plot against Indonesian President Joko Widodo



JAKARTA - Police in Indonesia's West Java on Monday (Sept 18) foiled a plot to attack President Joko Widodo and his security detail, after they arrested a 31-year-old militant with five Molotov cocktails, or petrol bombs.

The suspect was nabbed near a helicopter landing pad at Penggung Airport in Cirebon, a city in West Java province, where President Joko, better known as Jokowi, was visiting on Tuesday for a cultural festival.

Preliminary investigations indicate that the suspect, identified by the police by the initials "IM", is a member of the Jemaah Ansharut Daulah (JAD), a local terrorist network with ties to the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The JAD has also been behind a series of attacks in Indonesia recently.

West Java police spokesman Umar Surya Fana told Detik News that aside from the Molotov cocktails, the suspect was also carrying, among other items, a bayonet, an Airsoft replica of a pistol, as well as a note with an invitation for jihad.


Malaysians in Rakhine to fight army: KL top cop



A group of Malaysians is in Myanmar to take up arms against the country's army, whose offensive against insurgents has led more than 400,000 Rohingya Muslims to flee the crackdown in Rakhine state.

Malaysian police chief Mohamad Fuzi Harun, who disclosed this yesterday, added that intelligence showed there were other Malaysians preparing to fight the Myanmar army. "We are determining how many of them are there (in Myanmar) and how many are planning to leave Malaysia (for Myanmar)," Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi, the Inspector-General of Police, told The Straits Times yesterday.

He said that Malaysians keen to fight in Myanmar were recruited by fighters in Malaysia and Rakhine.

As for those who have already gone to Myanmar, they are believed to have entered the country from Bangladesh and Thailand.

"We are still investigating," Mr Mohamad Fuzi said.

It is not known whether those Malaysians have launched any attack.

On Sunday, Malaysian police confirmed that some Malaysians, backed by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) militant group, are engaging in an armed struggle against the Myanmar government.



BATTLES CLOSER TO HOME

Myanmar's proximity to Malaysia encouraged ISIS to act in Rakhine. Myanmar is closer to Malaysia than Syria and the southern Philippines, where the conflict is ongoing, and now Rakhine has become their latest destination for 'jihad'.
