you remind me of someone who said they will never see a second world war in their live time after having gone through the first...Originally posted by Short Ninja:Forgive me if I may sound a bit like rookie or stookie but Singapore going to war with Malaysia is like me winning the Bigsweep and for Indonesia to go to war with Malaysia will be like me winning the Singapore Bigsweep twice in a year.
FPDA dont include east malaysia... why? because the brits, Aussies, kiwis and singapore are alot smarter then you think...Originally posted by tankfanatic:i think indo cant rant all it can about attacking M. They will only end up 17thousand new indonesia.
Full fledge war with a commonwealth country which is still closely friend of the united kindom..who is active members of the UN ..... which its army were better equip and wel fed... which still have defensive agreement to deter the very thing that the indo want to do...is very unlikely.
4 million willing to die? i dont think so........
M will definately get help from the FDPA (u can say what ever u want about FPDA... but i actually read the actual defence agreement) Aussies will definately come. M diplomatic front will definately wage diplomatic war in the UN... Indonesia will cried foul play....but who attack first? Indo will get the sanction..big time.
Singapore probably wont take side (a good desision) But will condemned Indo action in breaching the spirit of asean.
the FPDA only provides for the defence of Singapore and peninsular Malaysia (ithttp://www.unitedcommonwealth.org/AUKMIN.pdf
doesn't include east Malaysia).
so wat if indonesia is corrupted? isit our place to judge them? the govt of singapore only concern is the welfare and benefits of singapore...Originally posted by crusader91:Dun be dumb.Indonesians are our enemy.Lee kwan yew's memoir states that some stupid indonesians want to invade singapore more than the malaysains who had the chance to do so when we dun even have an army at hat time and what's the point of allying with a country that is the most corrupted in the world?
We drop from first world to third world.
here u have to differentiate between east and west malaysia... bombs in east malaysia wont hit us... its too far...Originally posted by Arapahoe:who ever fight MY will involved SG. U can't expect the round does not fall onto SG.
Oh sorry....it won't happen again!!
that is if singapore joins the looser lah... that would be malaysia... but if join indonesia.. and maybe even persuade thailand to join in the gang slam on malaysia... dont win also difficult...Originally posted by ferryman2393:don't get tangle up in somebody else's fight. lest u don't have the stomach for it. whoever wins, u lose.
there is really no need to threaten singapore... a simple message from indonesia president to join them to wack malaysia is all that is needed to convince the ever so calculative, self serving singapore govt to realise where the gold is.Originally posted by red_amoeba:actually my take is, Singapore won't take either side bcos it will be fatal. Neither side has the might to wipe out each other. Indonesia will be able to defend but not conquer. Where can the war beak out? The potential hotspots are in Kalimantan area where there is oil - and thats so ulu. So there might be some scuffles but not full scale war.
malaysia don't have the resources to invade and who wants Kalimantan - its all rainforest and hilly terrain. And Indonesia has neither the reosources to invade Sabah and Sarawak - their army is not that well equipped.
so, if a scuffle broke out in Kalimantan, Singapore can remain neutral and go to Asean and ask for peaceful settlement. And I don't think Jakarta will go whack KL, firstly, they are all muslims, and there is no such disparity between Sini and shites as in middle east. Moreover, Indonesia has more oil than Malaysia, so why go whack Malaysia? Its not as if Malaysia is doing so well. Moreover, geographically Malaysia is not the border neighbour of Indonesia (except Kalimantan). The akward neighbour is Singapore.
Hence whoever fight will probably threaten Singapore to let them use us as staging area or use our base else we get invaded. Ditto for Malaysia - but Singapore is not stupid either, once we have sensed this happening, you can bet there will be open mob and US will have park an aircraft carrier in Changi liao.
I say this because of the Singapore overblown defense budget and looking at the SAF today.Also believing that Malaysia is more afraid of war and not the other way around.Originally posted by tripwire:you remind me of someone who said they will never see a second world war in their live time after having gone through the first...
sideing with indonesia is probably like stalin signing peace treaty with germany prior to WW2...Originally posted by Arapahoe:I think politically siding with indo is like Stalin signing peace treaty with German. Do you really think that siding with Indo is going to last once Indo finish off MY. It does nobody any good if MY looses or win and become a super power or Indo become supper power.
Indo is huge but it is thin. its fragment. I do not believe it can withstand a political fallout as u can see we are all worry that its has so many ethnic group that is going independent. it faces Aus from the south, it face MY who is going to grad the resources. Phil disputed island.
the bottom line is - "Side" no one if you need to side than stick with MY, commonweath states there are benefit that comes with the membership.
FPDA.
Learn from chinese history of the 7 warring states who has the symbios relationship.
i am sure that malaysia are not afraid of war... because they never been in one eversince they gained independence. same for us...Originally posted by Short Ninja:I say this because of the Singapore overblown defense budget and looking at the SAF today.Also believing that Malaysia is more afraid of war and not the other way around.
first you must understand that FPDA is non-committal... its a consultative agreedment... can talk ... but no guaranteed to commit forces.Originally posted by CM06:...
If Indo prep for arms, Our north neighbour prep for arms, All of you, your HP will ring for mob also.
Dont be stupid, if they are going to war we will be mobilised into defence positions right away.
Why?
Who say it aint a bluff? I wayang you wayang, we fight then together eat the brainless bird by the side. So we must MOB.
Dont forget the National Day(or some other holiday) Incident when Indo Para into Southern Malaysia for an "exercise" that their generals "forget" to mention to us. We push button immediately leh.
Failure to follow the FPDA, will 100% must us unreliable(economic&political&military fallout with others) and what chance we have to use that when it's our turn instead?
So if there's an Indon Invasion on our Northern neighbour we will defend them. Else the first bombs on butterworth hit our men and crafts, the same thing will happen.
If like than then... Malaysia an Independant country is afraid of losing her freedom again.On the other hand,SIngapore didnt want Independence and so they are not afraid come what may.....anything oso can...Bring it on! Kepala butoh-lah!Originally posted by tripwire:i am sure that malaysia are not afraid of war... because they never been in one eversince they gained independence.
You damn idiot !!! you think everything so simple. Artilliry can hit the airfield, maybe destory a few planes , and hit some building and runway. Within the next hour our runway all repaired and new planes will hit them.Originally posted by crusader91:No attack or siding for us.SAF,in fact, can only defend,not attack.Our airfields could be in range of the malaysia artillary and before our planes can even fly to a suitable atitude,they could already be shot down by some missiles hidden in the jungles.What's more, i wake up everyday and can easily see the mountain of malaysia(live in cck btw) and i feel that they have more visual fields on us than we had on our pathetic bukit timah hill (still useful though).
FPDA dont include east malaysia... why? because the brits, Aussies, kiwis and singapore are alot smarter then you think...lol extremely funny! during the confrontation indonesian infitrate east malaysia and from that the bulk of commonwealth soldier were in east malaysia defending it. Even then the indonesia did not pour 4 million men into east malaysia nor the peninsular.
Indonesia may think they have 4 million people to sarifice. But it is a war that will only result in their lost.Originally posted by vivasg:Hmm... sounds to me TRIPWIRE is an Indonesian hahaha
don't sound feasible... if Indonesia really tat strong, it wouldn't been a poor country. and mind you please study Malaysia Defense system and militarty strength before making the conclusion.
I don't think Indonesia can win Malaysia military resource (not only the army quantity but the technologies itself)... In this generation u still talk about population? Ppl don't fight with sword and stick anymore... Do you know what is military technologies.
Even singapore military defence technology is so much high tech.
And do take note also malaysia is the chairman for OIC and member of many unified bodies
Please study the history. When malaysia declare independence, indonesia did not succeed in it attempt when attacking malaysia.. it will be same as now.
Maybe its a matter of who throw the first upper cut punch first.The MAF artillery raining missiles on Singapore casuing massive damage or the RSAF fighter planes doing the 'precision bombings and crippling the MAF.Too troublesome to worry about that so peace to everyone.Originally posted by storywolf:You damn idiot !!! you think everything so simple. Artilliry can hit the airfield, maybe destory a few planes , and hit some building and runway. Within the next hour our runway all repaired and new planes will hit them.
even if you put missiles in mountains, trust me they will not even be able to target out planes !!!
SAF already knows that their is alway they could be hit by the first strike. So everything is built and done in a way that most of our stuff will survive the 1st strike to kick ass back.Originally posted by Short Ninja:Maybe its a matter of who throw the first upper cut punch first.The MAF artillery raining missiles on Singapore casuing massive damage or the RSAF fighter planes doing the 'precision bombings and crippling the MAF.Too troublesome to worry about that so peace to everyone.
aiyoh... dont change the topic... you wanna start something new on singapore air force... start a new thread... lah...Originally posted by crusader91:No attack or siding for us.SAF,in fact, can only defend,not attack.Our airfields could be in range of the malaysia artillary and before our planes can even fly to a suitable atitude,they could already be shot down by some missiles hidden in the jungles.What's more, i wake up everyday and can easily see the mountain of malaysia(live in cck btw) and i feel that they have more visual fields on us than we had on our pathetic bukit timah hill (still useful though).
