Inspection of newly delivered batteries
The Commander, Air Defense Command, MGEN FABIAN M PEDREGOSA PAF conducted an inspection of the newly delivered batteries, which were procured as part of the modernization initiative for the 960th Air and Missile Defense Group. This thorough examination ensures the batteries meet operational standards and are fully prepared to support upcoming missions and training.
These newly acquired batteries are set to play a critical role in the forthcoming Air Defense Exercise, commonly known as ADEX. This large-scale exercise aims to test and enhance the operational readiness and interoperability of the Air Defense Command's existing capabilities.
ADEX serves as a platform for refining coordination among units, sharpening tactical expertise, and validating the effectiveness of new systems under realistic combat conditions. It is an essential component of maintaining a credible and adaptive air defense force.
The inspection underscores the Air Defense Command's commitment to its vision of becoming an Integrated, Agile, and Resilient force, capable of responding to modern threats and safeguarding national security.
Graces the blessing of new Air and Missile Defense System
The Philippine Air Force Commanding General, LTGEN STEPHEN P PARREÑO, extended his sincere appreciation and profound gratitude to all the PAF personnel at Clark Air Base during his Pre-Christmas and Farewell visit on November 27, 2024.
Upon his arrival, LTGEN PARREÑO was warmly welcomed by personnel from the Air Defense Command, Air Logistics Command, and the Air Force Reserve Command. In his pre-Christmas and farewell message, he expressed his gratitude and commended their professionalism, unwavering dedication, and sacrifices, emphasizing their indispensable contributions to the PAF’s modernization and operational success.
Coinciding with this visit, the PAF celebrated another milestone with the formal blessing of an Air and Missile Defense System (AMDS) and support vehicles to be operated by the 960th Air and Missile Defense Group, Air Defense Command.
LTGEN PARREÑO led the ceremonial blessing of the system and traditional champagne pouring onto the AMDS. This acquisition, under the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Modernization Project – Horizon 2, represents a leap forward in fortifying the nation’s air defense infrastructure.

Factors that influence Malon's military budget include:
BalasHapus• Fiscal limitations
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund defense by cutting government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces.
• Public debt
A study found a positive association between public debt and defense spending in Malon.
• Exchange rate
The depreciation of the ringgit can impact the real gain in procurement funding.
• Military imports
The size of military imports is closely linked to variations in expenditure.
• Military aid
The availability of military aid plays a central role in military expenditure.
• Non-conventional security issues
These issues are beginning to shape and influence the nature of threats to national defense and security.
• Corruption
Corruption risks are critical in terms of military operations.
• Competition between the U.S.A. and China
The increasing competition between the U.S.A. and China has triggered an increase in military expenditure in the region.
• Conflicts and potential conflicts
Conflicts and potential conflicts between countries in the Southeast Asian region are permanent causes

The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) WHILE ASSET PROCUREMENT IS DOWN TO RM5.585 BILLION, DOWN BY SOME RM250 MILLION FROM LAST YEAR.

171 ASET USANG
A total of 171 assets from all three branches of the Malonnn Armed Forces (ATM) have exceeded 30 years of service, underscoring the challenges posed by aging military equipment.
The issue was raised by Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin in response to a question from Lim Lip Eng (DAP-Kepong) during today’s parliamentary session.
However, the minister did not provide specific details on the types of assets beyond the 30-year threshold.
In recent years, military leaders have openly acknowledged the burden of outdated assets.
Earlier this month, Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) chief General Tan Sri Mohammad Ab Rahman disclosed to local media that 34 RMN vessels have surpassed their intended service life, with 28 of them over 40 years old.
According to General Mohammad, the age limit for RMN vessels is 35 years for submarines and 30 years for frigates, corvettes, logistics ships, next-generation patrol vessels, and hydrographic vessels.
Smaller vessels, such as fast patrol boats, mine warfare ships, sailing vessels, and tugboats, have an age limit of 24 years.
In July of last year, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim called for an overhaul of MAF’s procurement system, stressing the need for reform.
He argued that the preparedness of Malonn’s defense equipment, such as ships, aircraft, and tanks, must align with the country’s economic growth and evolving geopolitical and strategic landscape.

MALAYSIA'S JAILED EX-PM NAJIB TO ARGUE APPEAL FOR HOUSE ARREST
BalasHapusKuala Lumpur (AFP) – Malaysia's jailed ex-leader Najib Razak will begin his defence this week against graft charges tied to more than $500 million in alleged bribes, and argue to serve the rest of his sentence under house arrest.
The former prime minister, already serving a six-year jail term for corruption related to the plunder of sovereign wealth fund 1MDB, faces several other cases linked to the financial scandal that led to his defeat in 2018 elections.
At the High Court on Monday, the 71-year-old will start his defence against four counts of abuse of power linked to 2.27 billion ringgit ($510 million) in alleged bribes and 21 counts of money laundering.
The case involves Tanore Finance Corp, which US authorities have said was used to siphon money from 1MDB.
Najib issued an apology in October that the 1MDB scandal happened during his tenure, but maintained he had no knowledge of illegal transfers from the now-defunct state fund.
If convicted, Najib faces hefty fines and sentences of up to 20 years for each count of abuse of power.Najib's lead lawyer, Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, has said they were "more determined" than ever to fight the case.Allegations that billions of dollars were pilfered from investment vehicle 1MDB and used to buy everything from a superyacht to artwork played a major role in prompting voters to oust Najib and the long-ruling United Malays National Organisation party in the 2018 elections.
The 1MDB scandal sparked investigations in the United States, Switzerland and Singapore, whose financial systems were believed to have been used to launder the money.
The US Justice Department has said more than $4.5 billion was stolen from 1MDB between 2009 and 2015 by high-level officials at the fund and their associates.
Najib began serving a 12-year jail term in August 2022 for offences linked to the misuse of public money from former 1MDB unit SRC International. The sentence was later halved by Malaysia's pardons board.

Malon's military faces a number of challenges, including:
Hapus• Budgetary constraints
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund the military by reducing government spending or the size of the armed forces.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonn military's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the 1990s, and is now considered outdated.
• Lack of authority
The armed forces are generally given a limited role in dealing with non-traditional security threats, and are often called upon to assist other authorities.
• Tension between the public and the military
There is a tension between the public's right to know and the military's need-to-know policies.
• Socio-economic class divisions
There are socio-economic class divisions within the military, with enlisted personnel generally coming from lower socio-economic backgrounds, and officers coming from middle and upper middle classes.
• Corruption
The military has been involved in a number of corruption scandals.
Other challenges include:
• Lack of standard operating procedures
• The need to adapt to the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
• The need to consider the regional strategic environment
==========
Malonn's defense budget is considered not in accordance with its objectives. Some of the things to consider are:
• The allocation of salaries and allowances for 2024 reaches 40% of the total defense budget.
• The allocation for procurement has increased slightly from 2023, but there may be no real benefit due to the depreciation of the ringgit.
• The Ministry of Finance assesses the availability of funds for programs and procurement requirements in private.
• Hundreds of Malonnn military assets have exceeded the 30-year service limit.
==========
Malonn has faced several crises, including political, financial, and economic crises:
• Political crisis
From 2020–2022, Malonn experienced a political crisis that led to the resignation of two Prime Ministers and the collapse of two coalition governments. The crisis was caused by political infighting, party switching, and the refusal of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad to transition power to Anwar Ibrahim. The crisis ended in 2022 with a snap general election and the formation of a coalition government.
• Financial crisis
Malonn experienced a financial crisis when the country's economic fundamentals appeared strong, but the crisis came suddenly. The government's initial response was to increase interest rates and tighten fiscal policy, but this was not enough to correct the external imbalances.
• Economic crisis
Malonn's economy has faced challenges due to weak global demand and a dependence on exports. In 2020, Malonn's economy shrank by the most since the Asian crisis. In 2023, weak global demand for electronics and a decline in energy prices weighed on the economy.
• Household debt crisis
As of the end of 2023, Malonn's household debt-to-GDP ratio was 84.2%, with household debt reaching RM1.53 trillion
• Malonn has faced several rice crises in the past, including in 1973–1975, the 1980s, 1997–1998, 2008, and 2023. These crises are often caused by price hikes, which are driven by supply and demand, as well as market player behavior

KUALA LUMPUR – Rancangan perolehan aset baharu Tentera Laut Diraja Malon (TLDM) dijangka akan menelan belanja sekurang-kurangnya RM10 bilion untuk tempoh Rancangan Malon Ke-13 (RMKe-13).
Perkara tersebut dinyatakan oleh Timbalan Menteri Pertahanan, Adly Zahari semasa Perbahasan Penggulungan Laporan Ketua Audit Negara (LKAN) di Dewan Rakyat, hari ini.
Menurut beliau, perolehan Kapal Misi Pesisir (Littoral Mission Ship) Batch Kedua (LMSB2) yang dilakukan oleh kerajaan pada Jun lalu merupakan sebahagian daripada usaha untuk memperkasakan armada TLDM.
“Di bawah RMKe-13 pula, usaha memperkasakan armada TLDM diteruskan dengan termeterainya perjanjian perolehan bagi tiga buah kapal Littoral Mission Ship Batch 2 dengan negara Turkiye baru-baru ini,” katanya di Dewan Rakyat.
Perolehan 3 buah LMSB2 itu dilakukan melalui kaedah Government to Government (G2G) dengan negara Turkiye.
RMKe-13 merangkumi tempoh tahun 2026-2030.
“Perolehan bagi baki 3 buah LMS lagi akan dimasukkan di bawah RMKe-13,” ujar beliau.
Selain LMS, TLDM turut merancang perolehan 2 buah kapal Multi Role Support Ship (MRSS), 3 buah kapal Littoral Mission Ship Batch 3, 4 buah helikopter anti kapal selam dan 6 buah Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV).
“Proses perolehan bagi aset-aset baharu ini dijangka berlangsung sehingga 2030. Kesemua perolehan aset TLDM ini dianggarkan berjumlah RM10 – RM11 bilion bergantung kepada keadaan ekonomi semasa kerajaan,” katanya.

HASIL STUDI = BELANJA PERTAHANAN TERGANTUNG HUTANG
The results reveal a robust positive association between Public Debt and Defence Spending, substantiated by the significant coefficient of 0.7601 (p < 0.01). This suggests that an increase in Public Debt corresponds to a substantial rise in Defence Spending. Additionally, the study underscores the influence of Gross Domestic Saving and Exchange Rate on Defence Spending, with coefficients of 1.5996 (p < 0.01) and 0.4703 (p < 0.05), respectively. These findings contribute valuable insights into the fiscal dynamics of Malon's defence budget, shedding light on the interplay between Public Debt and strategic resource allocation. The incorporation of control variables enhances the robustness of the analysis, providing a nuanced understanding of the factors shaping defence spending in the Malonn context.
Some causes of issues with military logistics in Malonn include:
Hapus• Security threats: Malonn's military development and defense policy are influenced by security threats, which have changed from traditional to non-traditional.
• Budget: Budget constraints and uncertain timelines can impact the supply chain and collaboration with other international firms.
• Political intervention: Political intervention in spending can impact military logistics.

============
The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) faces several problems, including:
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF has faced challenges maintaining its fleet of aircraft. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were able to fly due to maintenance issues and a lack of spare parts.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.
============-
The Royal Malonn Navy (RMN) faces several challenges, including:
• Aging fleet: More than half of the RMN's fleet is past its prime, and the country has only received four of the 18 new vessels it planned to acquire. The last time the RMN acquired a combat ship was in 1997.
• Delayed replacements: The RMN's plans to replace its aging fleet have been stalled due to mismanagement.
• Insufficient defense budget: Malon's defense budget is less than one percent of its GDP, while neighboring Singapore spends six percent.
• Lack of coordination: There is a lack of coordination among agencies.
• Outdated assets: The RMN's ships and assets are outdated.
• Combat system issues: The RMN has observed deficiencies with the combat system of its LMS type vessels.
• Low endurance: The LCS's endurance was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Lack of air and surface warfare capabilities: The LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities
============
Some factors that contribute to the Malonn Army's perceived weakness include:
• Political instability: Frequent government changes since 2018 have made it difficult for the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) to receive the support it needs.
• Corruption: The MAF has been plagued by corruption.
• Poor planning: The MAF has been criticized for poor planning.
• Political interference: Political leaders have interfered in the MAF's procurement process.
• Outdated equipment: Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government has been unable to provide modern equipment.
Lack of military knowledge: Military personnel have struggled with decision-making and problem-solving during military operations
HapusFactors that influence the Malonnn Army include:
• Motivation
Factors like leadership style, career development, and work environment can affect the performance of instructors in the Army Training Centers.
• Logistics
Logistics is a fundamental part of combat power, and is the only thing that can start and maintain logistics support.
• Procurement performance
The lack of standard operating procedures can be a key issue in procurement performance.
• Governance structure
Governance structure is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Culture
Culture is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Strategic planning
Strategic planning is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Technology development

============
Malonn's military budget is not small compared to other ASEAN countries, but there are some factors that affect its size:
• Aging assets
Most of the equipment in the Malonnn Armed Forces (MAF) was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s, and is now outdated.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
The ringgit's depreciation means that an increase in procurement funding may not result in a real gain.
• Foreign equipment
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacturing is also dependent on foreign OEMs.
• Rising threats
Some say that the 2025 budget allocation of RM21.2 billion for the defense ministry is insufficient due to rising regional threats..
============
The Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Outdated equipment
Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government is unable to provide modern assets. For example, the KD Rahman submarine was unable to submerge due to technical issues in 2010.
• Misappropriation of funds
There have been multiple instances of public funds being misappropriated under the guise of meeting defense needs.
• Army-centric mindset
Malon has an army-centric mindset, even though the country is surrounded by water.
• Double budgetary allocation
The army receives more of the budget than the other services.
• Lack of standard operating procedures
There are issues with standard operating procedures, from the e-procurement process to inventory receipts.
• Tension between public and military
There is tension between the public's right to know and the military's "need-to-know" policies

HapusSeveral factors affect Malonn's military defense, including:
• Funding
Malonn's defense budget has been limited by successive governments' unwillingness to cut spending elsewhere or reduce the size of the armed forces. The 2024 defense budget allocated $4.16 billion for defense, but salaries and allowances accounted for over 40% of that.
• Equipment
Malonn's defense capabilities are dependent on foreign suppliers, and much of its equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s. The country also faces technical and logistical problems with its advanced weapon systems, which come from different countries.
• Threats
Malonn faces a range of threats, including territorial disputes, non-traditional threats, and the need to prepare for conflict in the South China Sea.
• Procurement
The Malonnn procurement system needs reform. The country's diversified acquisitions can contribute to increased costs.
• Local industry
The government should encourage novice product trials to support local industry. The development of local products should be guided by military doctrine.
• National defense policy
The military's organizational structure needs to be able to address both conventional and non-conventional threats. The military's underlying principles, culture, and structure need to be examined to keep up with the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
============
Several factors influence Malonn's military budget, including:
• Regional tensions
Malonn's military budget is affected by regional tensions, especially in the South China Sea. The country is seeking to protect its sovereignty and address security threats like terrorism and piracy.
• Investment in UN peacekeeping missions
Malonn's defense budget is also affected by its investment in UN peacekeeping missions.
• Need to upgrade the military
Malonn's defense budget is driven by the need to upgrade its military. The country is replacing aging equipment with new naval vessels, fighter jets, and other advanced platforms.
• Welfare of armed forces personnel and veterans
The defense budget also addresses the welfare of armed forces personnel and veterans. This includes improving learning environments in military camp schools, increasing internet access, and enhancing housing conditions.
============
Factors that have caused Malonnn fighter jets to be grounded include maintenance issues, lack of spare parts, and differing upgrades to systems:
• Sukhoi Su-30MKM
In 2018, the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) reported that only four of its 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were flyable due to maintenance issues and lack of spares.
• Hornet fighter jets
The Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block than the Malonnn fighters, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts. The aircraft have also received different system upgrades, which can make maintenance more complex
The Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF) has faced several challenges, including:
Hapus• Aircraft maintenance
The RMAF has had issues with maintenance and spare parts for its aircraft, including the Sukhoi Su-30MKM and the Kuwaiti Hornet. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were flyable due to maintenance issues. The Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier model than the Malonn fighters, which may cause compatibility issues.
• Budget constraints
Malon's defense budget is limited, which can affect the pace of acquisitions and upgrades. The government must balance defense spending with other national priorities.
• Regional competition
Neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore are also increasing their air force capabilities, which puts pressure on Malon to keep pace.
• Corruption
Malon's military has been involved in multiple corruption scandals

The RMAF has faced challenges maintaining its fleet of aircraft. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were able to fly due to maintenance issues and a lack of spare parts.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.

RUSSIA SAYS = SU-30MKM MALONNN SUITS POOR QUALITY
RUSSIA SAYS = SU-30MKM MALONNN SUITS POOR QUALITY
RUSSIA SAYS = SU-30MKM MALONNN SUITS POOR QUALITY
Responding to Malonn's claims that Russia sold low-quality Su-30MKMs and poor aftermarket services, Russia explained that the technical error was with both Irkut and Malonn's aircraft. It is entirely up to the user to do the wrong thing.
In addition, due to lack of technical maintenance of the aircraft bought from Russia. Meanwhile, Kuala Lumpur has just ended a major overhaul with a contractor selected by former Prime Minister Najib Razak.
Thus, the reason for the disastrous Su-30MKM in Russia's RMAF is not satisfactory. For example, the Su-30SM of Kazakhstan, which does not have any complaints about the quality of its products, evaluates its reliable operation and meets all tactical requirements.
In addition to the operating method, the addition of foreigners to Russian aircraft, such as French sensors, display screens, or Israel's target indications, is also believed to be responsible. The phenomenon of system conflict.
Although it is unclear what the cause is, there is the fact that the RMAF currently has only four Su-30MKM out of a total of 18 such fighter jets capable of taking off and performing missions.
In order to escape this catastrophic situation, the Malonnn Air Force was forced to seek a domestic solution to maintain its combat readiness for the Su-30MKM fighter squadron. However, no feasible solution is available.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

BUDGET 2025 = SALARIES AND ALLOWANCES

BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

THE MALONN GOVERNMENT’S BUDGETING PROCESS STILL DOES NOT GIVE ITS ARMED FORCES A CLEAR VISION OF WHAT PROCUREMENT TO EXPECT, AND WHEN.
HapusIn contrast to its neighbours in South East Asia, progress in Malon’s defence has been limited since 2018 due to a combination of various factors. The main factor has always been fiscal limitation with successive Malonn governments unwilling to fund defence by cutting government spending elsewhere or reducing the size of the armed forces by reducing manpower and equipment.
The 2024 defence budget allocated $4.16 billion (RM19.73 billion) for defence, but the allocation for salaries and allowances for 2024 amounted to $1.7 billion (RM8.2 billion), which is slightly over 40 percent of the total defence budget. In contrast the allocation for procurement amounted to $1.2 billion (RM5.71 billion), a slight increase from 2023’s allocation of $1.06 billion (RM5.04 billion). However, given the depreciation of the ringgit and the fact that Malon sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also significantly dependent on foreign OEMs, there may not actually be a real gain in procurement funding with the increase merely compensating for the ringgit’s depreciation.
It also includes funding for intended single year procurements in that particular year as well, such as for small arms, communication equipment, small quantities of specialised vehicles or support vehicles and so on. Funding for large ticket items or programmes that require multi-year payments are usually assessed by the finance ministry. This is then subject to cabinet approval as to whether the country can afford to fund the programme with the money then set aside but not included in the annual budget for the year. It is only allocated once a formal procurement contract has been signed and then placed into the fiscal year budgets of the years that progressive payments are to be made.
Therefore it is difficult to actually assess how much is available for defence procurement in a given year as the funding availability for defence procurement programmes and requirements are assessed behind closed doors by the Finance Ministry on a case by case basis. Once done this is then sent for approval with the Prime Minister and his cabinet having the final say on a large ticket procurement, and any outcome only known if the government decides to announce it rather than being published in official publicly accessible documents. For example on 15 March this year, Malonn Defence Minister Khaled Nordin announced on his social media account on X that the Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF), for this year, had been allocated $232 million (RM1.13 billon) to carry out all its programmes such as procurement, supply, replacement and upgrades of assets and national airspace equipment. “This amount does not include the phase 1 procurement for the RMAF of 12 new helicopters of which $590 million (RM2.8 billon) had been approved this year with delivery of the helicopters scheduled in 2028”, posted Khaled
Another factor that has also hindered Malon’s defence development has been the frequent change of governments since 2018 which since that year has seen Malon go through four Prime Ministers and governments before a general election at the end of 2022 bought about the present administration. The current political opposition has even talked of ousting the present government via defections of Members of Parliament (MPs) and political parties from the ruling coalition. Coupled with the need to revitalised a slow economy, the government is still grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and an overall need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit giving it more than enough priorities to focus on outside of defence. It has approved and funded some programmes that had been initiated by past governments and is going through the process of approving a few other programmes

This was followed by validating capabilities-based approaches employed by other modern defence forces. Challenges and issues for MAF in adopting a similar approach are discussed. It was concluded that chief among these challenges was invigorating greater leadership in defence planning. Subsequently, the national security and defence policies must be aligned to provide clearer direction for the military strategy. Other challenges include the need to break old mind-sets vis-à-vis service rivalry. In a resource constrained environment, MAF’s force development has to be addressed through a more methodological approach in the form of CBP. Insights and best practices from around the world have to be adopted to avoid the debilitating pitfalls and obstacles
The country’s military development is a need to the country to ensure its viability. With the development of threat that not only traditional threat but it changes to the non-traditional threats. The security threat has influence the country’s military development and Defence Policy. It also implicates Malon which actively developing the military after the Cold War in 1991. Between 1957 to 1991, Malon has been focusing to the threat in the country specifically the communist threat that affects the country’s safety and sovereignty. After the peace treaty between PKM and Malonn government in 1989, Malon begins to actively developing the military. It is seen as a need for Malon to ensure the safety and defence of the country is in red alert to face any threat. However, in the rapid development of the military, there are some who see Malon is having problem to ensure the country’s readiness in facing the threat. With various negative issues being reported, it has raised question on the current status and the problem that Malon is facing in ensuring Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) readiness.
HapusSeveral factors affect Malonn's military defense, including:
• Funding
Malonn's defense budget has been limited by successive governments' unwillingness to cut spending elsewhere or reduce the size of the armed forces. The 2024 defense budget allocated $4.16 billion for defense, but salaries and allowances accounted for over 40% of that.
• Equipment
Malonn's defense capabilities are dependent on foreign suppliers, and much of its equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s. The country also faces technical and logistical problems with its advanced weapon systems, which come from different countries.
• Threats
Malonn faces a range of threats, including territorial disputes, non-traditional threats, and the need to prepare for conflict in the South China Sea.
• Procurement
The Malonnn procurement system needs reform. The country's diversified acquisitions can contribute to increased costs.
• Local industry
The government should encourage novice product trials to support local industry. The development of local products should be guided by military doctrine.
• National defense policy
The military's organizational structure needs to be able to address both conventional and non-conventional threats. The military's underlying principles, culture, and structure need to be examined to keep up with the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
============
Several factors influence Malonn's military budget, including:
• Regional tensions
Malonn's military budget is affected by regional tensions, especially in the South China Sea. The country is seeking to protect its sovereignty and address security threats like terrorism and piracy.
• Investment in UN peacekeeping missions
Malonn's defense budget is also affected by its investment in UN peacekeeping missions.
• Need to upgrade the military
Malonn's defense budget is driven by the need to upgrade its military. The country is replacing aging equipment with new naval vessels, fighter jets, and other advanced platforms.
• Welfare of armed forces personnel and veterans
The defense budget also addresses the welfare of armed forces personnel and veterans. This includes improving learning environments in military camp schools, increasing internet access, and enhancing housing conditions.
============
Factors that have caused Malonnn fighter jets to be grounded include maintenance issues, lack of spare parts, and differing upgrades to systems:
• Sukhoi Su-30MKM
In 2018, the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) reported that only four of its 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were flyable due to maintenance issues and lack of spares.
• Hornet fighter jets
The Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block than the Malonnn fighters, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts. The aircraft have also received different system upgrades, which can make maintenance more complex
HapusFactors that influence the Malonnn Army include:
• Motivation
Factors like leadership style, career development, and work environment can affect the performance of instructors in the Army Training Centers.
• Logistics
Logistics is a fundamental part of combat power, and is the only thing that can start and maintain logistics support.
• Procurement performance
The lack of standard operating procedures can be a key issue in procurement performance.
• Governance structure
Governance structure is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Culture
Culture is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Strategic planning
Strategic planning is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Technology development
Technology development is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Record-keeping process
Record-keeping process is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
============
Malonn's military budget is not small compared to other ASEAN countries, but there are some factors that affect its size:
• Aging assets
Most of the equipment in the Malonnn Armed Forces (MAF) was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s, and is now outdated.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
The ringgit's depreciation means that an increase in procurement funding may not result in a real gain.
• Foreign equipment
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacturing is also dependent on foreign OEMs.
• Rising threats
Some say that the 2025 budget allocation of RM21.2 billion for the defense ministry is insufficient due to rising regional threats..
============
The Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Outdated equipment
Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government is unable to provide modern assets. For example, the KD Rahman submarine was unable to submerge due to technical issues in 2010.
• Misappropriation of funds
There have been multiple instances of public funds being misappropriated under the guise of meeting defense needs.
• Army-centric mindset
Malon has an army-centric mindset, even though the country is surrounded by water.
• Double budgetary allocation
The army receives more of the budget than the other services.
• Lack of standard operating procedures
There are issues with standard operating procedures, from the e-procurement process to inventory receipts.
• Tension between public and military
There is tension between the public's right to know and the military's "need-to-know" policies
Some causes of issues with military logistics in Malonn include:
Hapus• Security threats: Malonn's military development and defense policy are influenced by security threats, which have changed from traditional to non-traditional.
• Budget: Budget constraints and uncertain timelines can impact the supply chain and collaboration with other international firms.
• Political intervention: Political intervention in spending can impact military logistics.
• Outdated equipment: Outdated equipment can impact military logistics.
• Privatization: Privatization of the logistics division can impact military logistics.
• Purchases: Purchases that are not based on real needs can impact military logistics.
• Readiness: Low level of readiness can impact military logistics.
============
The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) faces several problems, including:
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF has faced challenges maintaining its fleet of aircraft. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were able to fly due to maintenance issues and a lack of spare parts.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.
============-
The Royal Malonn Navy (RMN) faces several challenges, including:
• Aging fleet: More than half of the RMN's fleet is past its prime, and the country has only received four of the 18 new vessels it planned to acquire. The last time the RMN acquired a combat ship was in 1997.
• Delayed replacements: The RMN's plans to replace its aging fleet have been stalled due to mismanagement.
• Insufficient defense budget: Malon's defense budget is less than one percent of its GDP, while neighboring Singapore spends six percent.
• Lack of coordination: There is a lack of coordination among agencies.
• Outdated assets: The RMN's ships and assets are outdated.
• Combat system issues: The RMN has observed deficiencies with the combat system of its LMS type vessels.
• Low endurance: The LCS's endurance was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Lack of air and surface warfare capabilities: The LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities
============
Some factors that contribute to the Malonn Army's perceived weakness include:
• Political instability: Frequent government changes since 2018 have made it difficult for the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) to receive the support it needs.
• Corruption: The MAF has been plagued by corruption.
• Poor planning: The MAF has been criticized for poor planning.
• Political interference: Political leaders have interfered in the MAF's procurement process.
• Outdated equipment: Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government has been unable to provide modern equipment.
Lack of military knowledge: Military personnel have struggled with decision-making and problem-solving during military operations

Factors that influence Malon's military budget include:
Hapus• Fiscal limitations
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund defense by cutting government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces.
• Public debt
A study found a positive association between public debt and defense spending in Malon.
• Exchange rate
The depreciation of the ringgit can impact the real gain in procurement funding.
• Military imports
The size of military imports is closely linked to variations in expenditure.
• Military aid
The availability of military aid plays a central role in military expenditure.
• Non-conventional security issues
These issues are beginning to shape and influence the nature of threats to national defense and security.
• Corruption
Corruption risks are critical in terms of military operations.
• Competition between the U.S.A. and China
The increasing competition between the U.S.A. and China has triggered an increase in military expenditure in the region.
• Conflicts and potential conflicts
Conflicts and potential conflicts between countries in the Southeast Asian region are permanent causes

A total of 171 assets from all three branches of the Malonnn Armed Forces (ATM) have exceeded 30 years of service, underscoring the challenges posed by aging military equipment.
The issue was raised by Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin in response to a question from Lim Lip Eng (DAP-Kepong) during today’s parliamentary session.
However, the minister did not provide specific details on the types of assets beyond the 30-year threshold.
In recent years, military leaders have openly acknowledged the burden of outdated assets.
Earlier this month, Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) chief General Tan Sri Mohammad Ab Rahman disclosed to local media that 34 RMN vessels have surpassed their intended service life, with 28 of them over 40 years old.
According to General Mohammad, the age limit for RMN vessels is 35 years for submarines and 30 years for frigates, corvettes, logistics ships, next-generation patrol vessels, and hydrographic vessels.
Smaller vessels, such as fast patrol boats, mine warfare ships, sailing vessels, and tugboats, have an age limit of 24 years.
In July of last year, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim called for an overhaul of MAF’s procurement system, stressing the need for reform.
He argued that the preparedness of Malonn’s defense equipment, such as ships, aircraft, and tanks, must align with the country’s economic growth and evolving geopolitical and strategic landscape.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

Malon's military faces a number of challenges, including:
Hapus• Budgetary constraints
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund the military by reducing government spending or the size of the armed forces.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonn military's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the 1990s, and is now considered outdated.
• Lack of authority
The armed forces are generally given a limited role in dealing with non-traditional security threats, and are often called upon to assist other authorities.
• Tension between the public and the military
There is a tension between the public's right to know and the military's need-to-know policies.
• Socio-economic class divisions
There are socio-economic class divisions within the military, with enlisted personnel generally coming from lower socio-economic backgrounds, and officers coming from middle and upper middle classes.
• Corruption
The military has been involved in a number of corruption scandals.
Other challenges include:
• Lack of standard operating procedures
• The need to adapt to the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
• The need to consider the regional strategic environment
==========
Malonn's defense budget is considered not in accordance with its objectives. Some of the things to consider are:
• The allocation of salaries and allowances for 2024 reaches 40% of the total defense budget.
• The allocation for procurement has increased slightly from 2023, but there may be no real benefit due to the depreciation of the ringgit.
• The Ministry of Finance assesses the availability of funds for programs and procurement requirements in private.
• Hundreds of Malonnn military assets have exceeded the 30-year service limit.
==========
Malonn has faced several crises, including political, financial, and economic crises:
• Political crisis
From 2020–2022, Malonn experienced a political crisis that led to the resignation of two Prime Ministers and the collapse of two coalition governments. The crisis was caused by political infighting, party switching, and the refusal of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad to transition power to Anwar Ibrahim. The crisis ended in 2022 with a snap general election and the formation of a coalition government.
• Financial crisis
Malonn experienced a financial crisis when the country's economic fundamentals appeared strong, but the crisis came suddenly. The government's initial response was to increase interest rates and tighten fiscal policy, but this was not enough to correct the external imbalances.
• Economic crisis
Malonn's economy has faced challenges due to weak global demand and a dependence on exports. In 2020, Malonn's economy shrank by the most since the Asian crisis. In 2023, weak global demand for electronics and a decline in energy prices weighed on the economy.
• Household debt crisis
As of the end of 2023, Malonn's household debt-to-GDP ratio was 84.2%, with household debt reaching RM1.53 trillion
• Malonn has faced several rice crises in the past, including in 1973–1975, the 1980s, 1997–1998, 2008, and 2023. These crises are often caused by price hikes, which are driven by supply and demand, as well as market player behavior

THE MALONN GOVERNMENT’S BUDGETING PROCESS STILL DOES NOT GIVE ITS ARMED FORCES A CLEAR VISION OF WHAT PROCUREMENT TO EXPECT, AND WHEN.
HapusIn contrast to its neighbours in South East Asia, progress in Malon’s defence has been limited since 2018 due to a combination of various factors. The main factor has always been fiscal limitation with successive Malonn governments unwilling to fund defence by cutting government spending elsewhere or reducing the size of the armed forces by reducing manpower and equipment.
The 2024 defence budget allocated $4.16 billion (RM19.73 billion) for defence, but the allocation for salaries and allowances for 2024 amounted to $1.7 billion (RM8.2 billion), which is slightly over 40 percent of the total defence budget. In contrast the allocation for procurement amounted to $1.2 billion (RM5.71 billion), a slight increase from 2023’s allocation of $1.06 billion (RM5.04 billion). However, given the depreciation of the ringgit and the fact that Malon sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also significantly dependent on foreign OEMs, there may not actually be a real gain in procurement funding with the increase merely compensating for the ringgit’s depreciation.
It also includes funding for intended single year procurements in that particular year as well, such as for small arms, communication equipment, small quantities of specialised vehicles or support vehicles and so on. Funding for large ticket items or programmes that require multi-year payments are usually assessed by the finance ministry. This is then subject to cabinet approval as to whether the country can afford to fund the programme with the money then set aside but not included in the annual budget for the year. It is only allocated once a formal procurement contract has been signed and then placed into the fiscal year budgets of the years that progressive payments are to be made.
Therefore it is difficult to actually assess how much is available for defence procurement in a given year as the funding availability for defence procurement programmes and requirements are assessed behind closed doors by the Finance Ministry on a case by case basis. Once done this is then sent for approval with the Prime Minister and his cabinet having the final say on a large ticket procurement, and any outcome only known if the government decides to announce it rather than being published in official publicly accessible documents. For example on 15 March this year, Malonn Defence Minister Khaled Nordin announced on his social media account on X that the Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF), for this year, had been allocated $232 million (RM1.13 billon) to carry out all its programmes such as procurement, supply, replacement and upgrades of assets and national airspace equipment. “This amount does not include the phase 1 procurement for the RMAF of 12 new helicopters of which $590 million (RM2.8 billon) had been approved this year with delivery of the helicopters scheduled in 2028”, posted Khaled
Another factor that has also hindered Malon’s defence development has been the frequent change of governments since 2018 which since that year has seen Malon go through four Prime Ministers and governments before a general election at the end of 2022 bought about the present administration. The current political opposition has even talked of ousting the present government via defections of Members of Parliament (MPs) and political parties from the ruling coalition. Coupled with the need to revitalised a slow economy, the government is still grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and an overall need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit giving it more than enough priorities to focus on outside of defence. It has approved and funded some programmes that had been initiated by past governments and is going through the process of approving a few other programmes

THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES FACED BY MAF
the issues and challenges faced by the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) in force modernization. MAF’s existing strategic plan and capability planning approaches was assessed initially. This was followed by validating capabilities-based approaches employed by other modern defence forces. Challenges and issues for MAF in adopting a similar approach are discussed. It was concluded that chief among these challenges was invigorating greater leadership in defence planning. Subsequently, the national security and defence policies must be aligned to provide clearer direction for the military strategy. Other challenges include the need to break old mind-sets vis-à-vis service rivalry. In a resource constrained environment, MAF’s force development has to be addressed through a more methodological approach in the form of CBP. Insights and best practices from around the world have to be adopted to avoid the debilitating pitfalls and obstacles
The country’s military development is a need to the country to ensure its viability. With the development of threat that not only traditional threat but it changes to the non-traditional threats. The security threat has influence the country’s military development and Defence Policy. It also implicates Malon which actively developing the military after the Cold War in 1991. Between 1957 to 1991, Malon has been focusing to the threat in the country specifically the communist threat that affects the country’s safety and sovereignty. After the peace treaty between PKM and Malonn government in 1989, Malon begins to actively developing the military. It is seen as a need for Malon to ensure the safety and defence of the country is in red alert to face any threat. However, in the rapid development of the military, there are some who see Malon is having problem to ensure the country’s readiness in facing the threat. With various negative issues being reported, it has raised question on the current status and the problem that Malon is facing in ensuring Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) readiness.

==========
Malonn has several issues related to assault rifles, including:
• Smuggling
Malonn's long and porous borders make it difficult to stop the smuggling of firearms and ammunition into the country. The border between Malonn and Thailand is particularly vulnerable to gun smuggling.
• Outdated inventory
The Malonnn Armed Forces (MAF) has outdated inventory stock, which can be a stumbling block for ongoing operations.
• Wary of Russian-made weapons
Malonn is becoming wary of its Russian-made weapons

Malonn telah mengalami beberapa krisis, termasuk krisis politik, krisis beras, dan krisis mata uang:
• Krisis politik
Malonn mengalami krisis politik berkepanjangan sejak 2020 hingga 2022. Beberapa penyebabnya adalah:
1. Pertikaian dalam Pakatan Harapan dan Perikatan Nasional
2. Penolakan Perdana Menteri Mahathir Mohamad untuk menentukan tanggal peralihan kekuasaan
3. Dampak politik pandemi COVID-19
4. Proklamasi Darurat 2021
5. Pengunduran diri Perdana Menteri Muhyiddin Yassin
• Krisis beras
Malonn mengalami krisis beras ketika harga beras impor naik sebesar 36% pada September 2023. Hal ini menyebabkan konsumen beralih ke beras lokal yang lebih murah.
• Krisis mata uang
Ringgit Malonn mengalami penurunan nilai yang signifikan pada tahun 2024. Beberapa penyebabnya adalah:
1. Kinerja ekspor yang buruk
2. Kenaikan suku bunga bank sentral Amerika Serikat (Federal Reserve)
3. Kekhawatiran geopolitik
4. Ketidakpastian mengenai prospek ekonomi China
he Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF) has faced several challenges, including:
Hapus• Aircraft maintenance
The RMAF has had issues with maintenance and spare parts for its aircraft, including the Sukhoi Su-30MKM and the Kuwaiti Hornet. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were flyable due to maintenance issues. The Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier model than the Malonn fighters, which may cause compatibility issues.
• Budget constraints
Malon's defense budget is limited, which can affect the pace of acquisitions and upgrades. The government must balance defense spending with other national priorities.
• Regional competition
Neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore are also increasing their air force capabilities, which puts pressure on Malon to keep pace.
• Corruption
Malon's military has been involved in multiple corruption scandals
============
The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) faces several problems, including:
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF has faced challenges maintaining its fleet of aircraft. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were able to fly due to maintenance issues and a lack of spare parts.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.
============-
The Royal Malonn Navy (RMN) faces several challenges, including:
• Aging fleet: More than half of the RMN's fleet is past its prime, and the country has only received four of the 18 new vessels it planned to acquire. The last time the RMN acquired a combat ship was in 1997.
• Delayed replacements: The RMN's plans to replace its aging fleet have been stalled due to mismanagement.
• Insufficient defense budget: Malon's defense budget is less than one percent of its GDP, while neighboring Singapore spends six percent.
• Lack of coordination: There is a lack of coordination among agencies.
• Outdated assets: The RMN's ships and assets are outdated.
• Combat system issues: The RMN has observed deficiencies with the combat system of its LMS type vessels.
• Low endurance: The LCS's endurance was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Lack of air and surface warfare capabilities: The LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities
============
Some factors that contribute to the Malonn Army's perceived weakness include:
• Political instability: Frequent government changes since 2018 have made it difficult for the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) to receive the support it needs.
• Corruption: The MAF has been plagued by corruption.
• Poor planning: The MAF has been criticized for poor planning.
• Political interference: Political leaders have interfered in the MAF's procurement process.
• Outdated equipment: Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government has been unable to provide modern equipment.
Lack of military knowledge: Military personnel have struggled with decision-making and problem-solving during military operations
The Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
Hapus• Outdated equipment
Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government is unable to provide modern assets. For example, the KD Rahman submarine was unable to submerge due to technical issues in 2010.
• Misappropriation of funds
There have been multiple instances of public funds being misappropriated under the guise of meeting defense needs.
• Army-centric mindset
Malon has an army-centric mindset, even though the country is surrounded by water.
• Double budgetary allocation
The army receives more of the budget than the other services.
• Lack of standard operating procedures
There are issues with standard operating procedures, from the e-procurement process to inventory receipts.
• Tension between public and military
There is tension between the public's right to know and the military's "need-to-know" policies.

LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
Large gaps in Malon’s military capability remain, however. These are largely the result of the small procurement budgets of the last quarter-century and ageing equipment inventory. The contracts announced at LIMA promise to increase Malon’s air power. But the air force’s most important shortcomings have been caused by the withdrawal from service of its Russia-supplied MiG-29 Fulcrum fighter aircraft in 2017 and the challenge of keeping its Su-30MKM Flanker fighter ground-attack aircraft, also of Russian origin, operational once existing stocks of spares run out. (Sanctions due to Russia’s war in Ukraine will prevent Malon from buying them directly from Moscow). In 2017, an earlier government suspended acquisition of a multi-role combat aircraft due to lack of funds. Subsequently, Malon expressed interest in buying second-hand F/A-18C/D Hornet fighters from Kuwait, but in March 2023, Minister of Defence Mohamad Hasan said the latter had not responded to enquiries.
Anwar spoke in June of his embarrassment over the age of the country’s naval assets. Malon’s Littoral Combat Ship programme has been plagued by delays and cost overruns, making only slow progress since an earlier government’s selection in 2011 of the French Gowind-class corvette as the basis for a Malonn-built warship class. In May 2023, the government injected additional funds into the local shipbuilder responsible for the programme while reducing the number of ships in the class from six to five, with deliveries scheduled for 2026–29. Meanwhile, Malon’s army has a longstanding requirement for self-propelled 155 millimetre artillery. In January 2023, however, the Anwar government cancelled the previous government’s order for Turkish-made Yavuz 155mm guns and said it would renegotiate the deal.
Equipment-modernisation challenges are not Malon’s only defence woes. The Malonn Armed Forces have difficulty recruiting and retaining sufficient high-calibre personnel, partly because of poor conditions of service. In June, Anwar remarked that he was ‘appalled’ by the condition of some military living quarters. But beyond immediate remedial measures, fixing defence infrastructure will probably not happen until 2024 at the earliest, as the government is currently prioritising the repair of dilapidated school buildings.
The government is also seeking to rebalance the ethnic composition of the armed forces. Indigenous Malonns (Bumiputeras) have long been significantly over represented, and ethnic Chinese Malonns have been under-represented. In April, Mohamad said that the defence ministry was implementing plans to attract more non-Bumiputeras to military service through online applications and nationwide roadshows.

PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

Itu adalah kebohongan yang jelas dari PM.
Bagaimana bisa membayar sewa sebesar RM1,1 miliar per tahun lebih “murah” daripada hanya membayar biaya pemeliharaan?????
Di bawah ini adalah fakta yang tak terbantahkan bahwa perawatan helikopter selama 1 tahun tidak menghabiskan biaya miliaran, bahkan tidak sampai 1/5 miliar
https://www.malaysiandefence.com/bhicas-to-continue-maintenance-of-ec725s/
Kontrak terbaru dengan BHICAS untuk merawat 12x TUDM EC725 selama 5 tahun hanya RM378 juta. Jika diekstrapolasi untuk 28 helikopter selama 1 tahun, maka hanya RM176,4 juta setahun!!!! Jadi mengapa kita membayar RM1,1 miliar setahun untuk tidak membayar RM176,4 juta setahun???? Siapa yang cukup bodoh untuk berpikir RM1,1 miliar lebih murah daripada RM176,4 juta????

Factors that influence Malon's military budget include:
• Fiscal limitations
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund defense by cutting government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces.
• Public debt
A study found a positive association between public debt and defense spending in Malon.
• Exchange rate
The depreciation of the ringgit can impact the real gain in procurement funding.
• Military imports
The size of military imports is closely linked to variations in expenditure.
• Military aid
The availability of military aid plays a central role in military expenditure.
• Non-conventional security issues
These issues are beginning to shape and influence the nature of threats to national defense and security.
• Corruption
Corruption risks are critical in terms of military operations.
• Competition between the U.S.A. and China
The increasing competition between the U.S.A. and China has triggered an increase in military expenditure in the region.
• Conflicts and potential conflicts
Conflicts and potential conflicts between countries in the Southeast Asian region are permanent causes

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago.

HapusMalonn's military procurement has several weaknesses, including:
Hapus• Corruption: The defense sector is vulnerable to corruption, and there is a high risk of corruption.
• Weak parliamentary oversight: Parliamentary oversight is weak, and financial scrutiny is limited by excessive secrecy.
• External influences: Decisions are often influenced by vendors and are against strategic interests. For example, Malonn sometimes procures hardware in exchange for palm oil.
• Mixing and matching equipment: The Malonnn military sources weapons systems and platforms from a large variety of foreign suppliers. This makes it difficult to find personnel to manage the equipment.
• Budgetary uncertainty: There is budgetary uncertainty in defense procurement.
• Opaque decision making: Decision making in defense procurement is opaque.
• Shifting priorities: Priorities in defense procurement shift.
• Sustainability: There are issues with sustaining logistics support during an operation.
• Voting system: The voting system for contractors has issues, such as not considering the value of the jobs.

The government's defense budget is limited and must be balanced with other national priorities.
• Regional competition
Neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore are also increasing their air force capabilities, which Malonn must keep pace with.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also dependent on foreign OEMs
===========
Some weaknesses of the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) include:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government's budgeting process doesn't provide a clear vision of what the armed forces can expect to procure and when. The 1997 Asian financial crisis also held back many procurement efforts.
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF faces serious fleet sustainment problems. A larger fleet of aging aircraft would be difficult to maintain.

Malonn's armed forces face several weaknesses, including:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government has been unwilling to increase defense funding by cutting other government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces. As a percentage of GDP, the military budget has never exceeded 1.5% in the past 20 years.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonnn Armed Forces' (MAF) equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s. The MAF lacks modern military assets to meet the challenges of internal and external threats.
• Corruption
The MAF has been plagued by corruption, including in procurement, which is vulnerable to powerful interests.
• Limited authority
The MAF's role in non-traditional security challenges is generally to assist other authorities, such as the police.
• Low ranking in military capability

Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund the military by reducing government spending or the size of the armed forces.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonn military's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the 1990s, and is now considered outdated.
• Lack of authority
The armed forces are generally given a limited role in dealing with non-traditional security threats, and are often called upon to assist other authorities.
• Tension between the public and the military
There is a tension between the public's right to know and the military's need-to-know policies.
• Socio-economic class divisions
There are socio-economic class divisions within the military, with enlisted personnel generally coming from lower socio-economic backgrounds, and officers coming from middle and upper middle classes.
• Corruption
The military has been involved in a number of corruption scandals.
Other challenges include:
• Lack of standard operating procedures
• The need to adapt to the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
• The need to consider the regional strategic environment
==========
Malonn's defense budget is considered not in accordance with its objectives. Some of the things to consider are:
• The allocation of salaries and allowances for 2024 reaches 40% of the total defense budget.
• The allocation for procurement has increased slightly from 2023, but there may be no real benefit due to the depreciation of the ringgit.
• The Ministry of Finance assesses the availability of funds for programs and procurement requirements in private.
• Hundreds of Malonnn military assets have exceeded the 30-year service limit.
==========
Malonn has faced several crises, including political, financial, and economic crises:
• Political crisis
From 2020–2022, Malonn experienced a political crisis that led to the resignation of two Prime Ministers and the collapse of two coalition governments. The crisis was caused by political infighting, party switching, and the refusal of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad to transition power to Anwar Ibrahim. The crisis ended in 2022 with a snap general election and the formation of a coalition government.
• Financial crisis
Malonn experienced a financial crisis when the country's economic fundamentals appeared strong, but the crisis came suddenly. The government's initial response was to increase interest rates and tighten fiscal policy, but this was not enough to correct the external imbalances.
• Economic crisis
Malonn's economy has faced challenges due to weak global demand and a dependence on exports. In 2020, Malonn's economy shrank by the most since the Asian crisis. In 2023, weak global demand for electronics and a decline in energy prices weighed on the economy.
• Household debt crisis
As of the end of 2023, Malonn's household debt-to-GDP ratio was 84.2%, with household debt reaching RM1.53 trillion
• Malonn has faced several rice crises in the past, including in 1973–1975, the 1980s, 1997–1998, 2008, and 2023. These crises are often caused by price hikes, which are driven by supply and demand, as well as market player behavior

PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

THE MALONN GOVERNMENT’S BUDGETING PROCESS STILL DOES NOT GIVE ITS ARMED FORCES A CLEAR VISION OF WHAT PROCUREMENT TO EXPECT, AND WHEN.
HapusIn contrast to its neighbours in South East Asia, progress in Malon’s defence has been limited since 2018 due to a combination of various factors. The main factor has always been fiscal limitation with successive Malonn governments unwilling to fund defence by cutting government spending elsewhere or reducing the size of the armed forces by reducing manpower and equipment.
The 2024 defence budget allocated $4.16 billion (RM19.73 billion) for defence, but the allocation for salaries and allowances for 2024 amounted to $1.7 billion (RM8.2 billion), which is slightly over 40 percent of the total defence budget. In contrast the allocation for procurement amounted to $1.2 billion (RM5.71 billion), a slight increase from 2023’s allocation of $1.06 billion (RM5.04 billion). However, given the depreciation of the ringgit and the fact that Malon sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also significantly dependent on foreign OEMs, there may not actually be a real gain in procurement funding with the increase merely compensating for the ringgit’s depreciation.
It also includes funding for intended single year procurements in that particular year as well, such as for small arms, communication equipment, small quantities of specialised vehicles or support vehicles and so on. Funding for large ticket items or programmes that require multi-year payments are usually assessed by the finance ministry. This is then subject to cabinet approval as to whether the country can afford to fund the programme with the money then set aside but not included in the annual budget for the year. It is only allocated once a formal procurement contract has been signed and then placed into the fiscal year budgets of the years that progressive payments are to be made.
Therefore it is difficult to actually assess how much is available for defence procurement in a given year as the funding availability for defence procurement programmes and requirements are assessed behind closed doors by the Finance Ministry on a case by case basis. Once done this is then sent for approval with the Prime Minister and his cabinet having the final say on a large ticket procurement, and any outcome only known if the government decides to announce it rather than being published in official publicly accessible documents. For example on 15 March this year, Malonn Defence Minister Khaled Nordin announced on his social media account on X that the Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF), for this year, had been allocated $232 million (RM1.13 billon) to carry out all its programmes such as procurement, supply, replacement and upgrades of assets and national airspace equipment. “This amount does not include the phase 1 procurement for the RMAF of 12 new helicopters of which $590 million (RM2.8 billon) had been approved this year with delivery of the helicopters scheduled in 2028”, posted Khaled
Another factor that has also hindered Malon’s defence development has been the frequent change of governments since 2018 which since that year has seen Malon go through four Prime Ministers and governments before a general election at the end of 2022 bought about the present administration. The current political opposition has even talked of ousting the present government via defections of Members of Parliament (MPs) and political parties from the ruling coalition. Coupled with the need to revitalised a slow economy, the government is still grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and an overall need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit giving it more than enough priorities to focus on outside of defence. It has approved and funded some programmes that had been initiated by past governments and is going through the process of approving a few other programmes

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

• External influences: Decisions are often influenced by vendors and are against strategic interests. For example, Malonn sometimes procures hardware in exchange for palm oil.
• Mixing and matching equipment: The Malonnn military sources weapons systems and platforms from a large variety of foreign suppliers. This makes it difficult to find personnel to manage the equipment.
• Budgetary uncertainty: There is budgetary uncertainty in defense procurement.
• Opaque decision making: Decision making in defense procurement is opaque.
• Shifting priorities: Priorities in defense procurement shift.
• Sustainability: There are issues with sustaining logistics support during an operation.

Malonn has agreed in principle to purchase medium-range missiles from China, which in return will transfer technology on very short-range air defence to the country, Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak said Tuesday.
The procurement of the surface-to-air missiles was part of the armed forces modernisation program and would be made under the Ninth Malonn Plan from 2006-2009, he was quoted as saying by Bernama news agency.
"Details of the procurement and offset programme will be finalised later should Malonn give its full commitment," he said after the signing of a memorandum of understanding on the purchase. The cost of the weapons were not revealed.
Under the pact between China National Precision Machinery Import and Export Corp. and two local companies, CNPMIEC would transfer technology on production of the FN-6 shoulder-launched missiles to Malonn if it purchases its medium-range KS-1A missiles, Bernama said.
This includes provisions for special test facilities, tools, manufacturing process document, training and technical support.
CNPMIEC president Wang Bingyan said China had also offered to conclude the KS-1A transaction on flexible payment terms, including counter-trade, barter and deferred payments.

The procurement of the surface-to-air missiles was part of the armed forces modernisation program and would be made under the Ninth Malonn Plan from 2006-2009, he was quoted as saying by Bernama news agency.
"Details of the procurement and offset programme will be finalised later should Malonn give its full commitment," he said after the signing of a memorandum of understanding on the purchase. The cost of the weapons were not revealed.
Under the pact between China National Precision Machinery Import and Export Corp. and two local companies, CNPMIEC would transfer technology on production of the FN-6 shoulder-launched missiles to Malonn if it purchases its medium-range KS-1A missiles, Bernama said.
This includes provisions for special test facilities, tools, manufacturing process document, training and technical support.
CNPMIEC president Wang Bingyan said China had also offered to conclude the KS-1A transaction on flexible payment terms, including counter-trade, barter and deferred payments.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.
The Malonnn air defense system faces some challenges, including:
Hapus• Budget constraints
The government's defense budget is limited and must be balanced with other national priorities.
• Regional competition
Neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore are also increasing their air force capabilities, which Malonn must keep pace with.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also dependent on foreign OEMs
===========
Some weaknesses of the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) include:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government's budgeting process doesn't provide a clear vision of what the armed forces can expect to procure and when. The 1997 Asian financial crisis also held back many procurement efforts.
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF faces serious fleet sustainment problems. A larger fleet of aging aircraft would be difficult to maintain.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are rapidly becoming technologically obsolete
===========
Malonn's armed forces face several weaknesses, including:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government has been unwilling to increase defense funding by cutting other government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces. As a percentage of GDP, the military budget has never exceeded 1.5% in the past 20 years.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonnn Armed Forces' (MAF) equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s. The MAF lacks modern military assets to meet the challenges of internal and external threats.
• Corruption
The MAF has been plagued by corruption, including in procurement, which is vulnerable to powerful interests.
• Limited authority
The MAF's role in non-traditional security challenges is generally to assist other authorities, such as the police.
• Low ranking in military capability
According to the Lowy Institute Asia Power Index, Malonn ranks 16th in military capability, which is its lowest ranking
Malonn's military has faced a number of challenges in maintaining its equipment, including:
Hapus• Budgetary limitations
Successive governments have been unwilling to cut spending elsewhere or reduce the size of the armed forces.
• Corruption
Defence procurement has been characterized by corruption, budgetary uncertainty, and opaque decision making.
• Outdated equipment
The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) has a large fleet of aging aircraft that are difficult to maintain.
• Political interference
Political interference has undermined combat readiness.
• Logistics weaknesses
There are issues with the quality of logistics equipment and the delivery of spares to soldiers
===========
The Malonnn military has several weaknesses, including:
• Corruption
Corruption is a problem in the Malonnn military, and is not addressed in a strategic document. Commanders are not trained on corruption issues before deployments, which can leave troops unprepared to respond to corruption risks.
• Poor planning
The Malonnn military has poor planning and political interference in procurement.
• Underfunding
The Malonnn military is underfunded, with the navy and air force struggling to acquire new assets.
• Dependence on foreign suppliers
The Malonnn military's defense capabilities are highly dependent on foreign suppliers.
• Lack of doctrine
The Malonnn military has no military doctrine that recognizes corruption.

Malonn's defense budget is less than 1% of its GDP, which is much lower than neighboring Singapore's 6%.
• Old and outgunned boats
Many of the boats patrolling the coast are old, slow, and not well-equipped.
• Competition with other law enforcement agencies
The MMEA struggles to become the sole maritime law enforcement agency in Malonn.

PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

THE MALONN GOVERNMENT’S BUDGETING PROCESS STILL DOES NOT GIVE ITS ARMED FORCES A CLEAR VISION OF WHAT PROCUREMENT TO EXPECT, AND WHEN.
HapusIn contrast to its neighbours in South East Asia, progress in Malon’s defence has been limited since 2018 due to a combination of various factors. The main factor has always been fiscal limitation with successive Malonn governments unwilling to fund defence by cutting government spending elsewhere or reducing the size of the armed forces by reducing manpower and equipment.
The 2024 defence budget allocated $4.16 billion (RM19.73 billion) for defence, but the allocation for salaries and allowances for 2024 amounted to $1.7 billion (RM8.2 billion), which is slightly over 40 percent of the total defence budget. In contrast the allocation for procurement amounted to $1.2 billion (RM5.71 billion), a slight increase from 2023’s allocation of $1.06 billion (RM5.04 billion). However, given the depreciation of the ringgit and the fact that Malon sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also significantly dependent on foreign OEMs, there may not actually be a real gain in procurement funding with the increase merely compensating for the ringgit’s depreciation.
It also includes funding for intended single year procurements in that particular year as well, such as for small arms, communication equipment, small quantities of specialised vehicles or support vehicles and so on. Funding for large ticket items or programmes that require multi-year payments are usually assessed by the finance ministry. This is then subject to cabinet approval as to whether the country can afford to fund the programme with the money then set aside but not included in the annual budget for the year. It is only allocated once a formal procurement contract has been signed and then placed into the fiscal year budgets of the years that progressive payments are to be made.
Therefore it is difficult to actually assess how much is available for defence procurement in a given year as the funding availability for defence procurement programmes and requirements are assessed behind closed doors by the Finance Ministry on a case by case basis. Once done this is then sent for approval with the Prime Minister and his cabinet having the final say on a large ticket procurement, and any outcome only known if the government decides to announce it rather than being published in official publicly accessible documents. For example on 15 March this year, Malonn Defence Minister Khaled Nordin announced on his social media account on X that the Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF), for this year, had been allocated $232 million (RM1.13 billon) to carry out all its programmes such as procurement, supply, replacement and upgrades of assets and national airspace equipment. “This amount does not include the phase 1 procurement for the RMAF of 12 new helicopters of which $590 million (RM2.8 billon) had been approved this year with delivery of the helicopters scheduled in 2028”, posted Khaled
Another factor that has also hindered Malon’s defence development has been the frequent change of governments since 2018 which since that year has seen Malon go through four Prime Ministers and governments before a general election at the end of 2022 bought about the present administration. The current political opposition has even talked of ousting the present government via defections of Members of Parliament (MPs) and political parties from the ruling coalition. Coupled with the need to revitalised a slow economy, the government is still grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and an overall need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit giving it more than enough priorities to focus on outside of defence. It has approved and funded some programmes that had been initiated by past governments and is going through the process of approving a few other programmes

The results reveal a robust positive association between Public Debt and Defence Spending, substantiated by the significant coefficient of 0.7601 (p < 0.01). This suggests that an increase in Public Debt corresponds to a substantial rise in Defence Spending. Additionally, the study underscores the influence of Gross Domestic Saving and Exchange Rate on Defence Spending, with coefficients of 1.5996 (p < 0.01) and 0.4703 (p < 0.05), respectively. These findings contribute valuable insights into the fiscal dynamics of Malon's defence budget, shedding light on the interplay between Public Debt and strategic resource allocation. The incorporation of control variables enhances the robustness of the analysis, providing a nuanced understanding of the factors shaping defence spending in the Malonn context.

THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES FACED BY MAF
the issues and challenges faced by the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) in force modernization. MAF’s existing strategic plan and capability planning approaches was assessed initially. This was followed by validating capabilities-based approaches employed by other modern defence forces. Challenges and issues for MAF in adopting a similar approach are discussed. It was concluded that chief among these challenges was invigorating greater leadership in defence planning. Subsequently, the national security and defence policies must be aligned to provide clearer direction for the military strategy. Other challenges include the need to break old mind-sets vis-à-vis service rivalry. In a resource constrained environment, MAF’s force development has to be addressed through a more methodological approach in the form of CBP. Insights and best practices from around the world have to be adopted to avoid the debilitating pitfalls and obstacles
The country’s military development is a need to the country to ensure its viability. With the development of threat that not only traditional threat but it changes to the non-traditional threats. The security threat has influence the country’s military development and Defence Policy. It also implicates Malon which actively developing the military after the Cold War in 1991. Between 1957 to 1991, Malon has been focusing to the threat in the country specifically the communist threat that affects the country’s safety and sovereignty. After the peace treaty between PKM and Malonn government in 1989, Malon begins to actively developing the military. It is seen as a need for Malon to ensure the safety and defence of the country is in red alert to face any threat. However, in the rapid development of the military, there are some who see Malon is having problem to ensure the country’s readiness in facing the threat. With various negative issues being reported, it has raised question on the current status and the problem that Malon is facing in ensuring Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) readiness.
Some causes of issues with military logistics in Malonn include:
Hapus• Security threats: Malonn's military development and defense policy are influenced by security threats, which have changed from traditional to non-traditional.
• Budget: Budget constraints and uncertain timelines can impact the supply chain and collaboration with other international firms.
• Political intervention: Political intervention in spending can impact military logistics.
• Outdated equipment: Outdated equipment can impact military logistics.
• Privatization: Privatization of the logistics division can impact military logistics.
• Purchases: Purchases that are not based on real needs can impact military logistics.
• Readiness: Low level of readiness can impact military logistics.
============
The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) faces several problems, including:
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF has faced challenges maintaining its fleet of aircraft. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were able to fly due to maintenance issues and a lack of spare parts.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.
============-
The Royal Malonn Navy (RMN) faces several challenges, including:
• Aging fleet: More than half of the RMN's fleet is past its prime, and the country has only received four of the 18 new vessels it planned to acquire. The last time the RMN acquired a combat ship was in 1997.
• Delayed replacements: The RMN's plans to replace its aging fleet have been stalled due to mismanagement.
• Insufficient defense budget: Malon's defense budget is less than one percent of its GDP, while neighboring Singapore spends six percent.
• Lack of coordination: There is a lack of coordination among agencies.
• Outdated assets: The RMN's ships and assets are outdated.
• Combat system issues: The RMN has observed deficiencies with the combat system of its LMS type vessels.
• Low endurance: The LCS's endurance was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Lack of air and surface warfare capabilities: The LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities
============
Some factors that contribute to the Malonn Army's perceived weakness include:
• Political instability: Frequent government changes since 2018 have made it difficult for the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) to receive the support it needs.
• Corruption: The MAF has been plagued by corruption.
• Poor planning: The MAF has been criticized for poor planning.
• Political interference: Political leaders have interfered in the MAF's procurement process.
• Outdated equipment: Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government has been unable to provide modern equipment.
Lack of military knowledge: Military personnel have struggled with decision-making and problem-solving during military operations

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak.

BalasHapusThe Malonnn air defense system faces some challenges, including:
Hapus• Budget constraints
The government's defense budget is limited and must be balanced with other national priorities.
• Regional competition
Neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore are also increasing their air force capabilities, which Malonn must keep pace with.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also dependent on foreign OEMs
===========
Some weaknesses of the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) include:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government's budgeting process doesn't provide a clear vision of what the armed forces can expect to procure and when. The 1997 Asian financial crisis also held back many procurement efforts.
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF faces serious fleet sustainment problems. A larger fleet of aging aircraft would be difficult to maintain.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are rapidly becoming technologically obsolete
===========
Malonn's armed forces face several weaknesses, including:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government has been unwilling to increase defense funding by cutting other government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces. As a percentage of GDP, the military budget has never exceeded 1.5% in the past 20 years.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonnn Armed Forces' (MAF) equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s. The MAF lacks modern military assets to meet the challenges of internal and external threats.
• Corruption
The MAF has been plagued by corruption, including in procurement, which is vulnerable to powerful interests.
• Limited authority
The MAF's role in non-traditional security challenges is generally to assist other authorities, such as the police.
• Low ranking in military capability
According to the Lowy Institute Asia Power Index, Malonn ranks 16th in military capability, which is its lowest ranking
Malonn's military procurement has several weaknesses, including:
Hapus• Corruption: The defense sector is vulnerable to corruption, and there is a high risk of corruption.
• Weak parliamentary oversight: Parliamentary oversight is weak, and financial scrutiny is limited by excessive secrecy.
• External influences: Decisions are often influenced by vendors and are against strategic interests. For example, Malonn sometimes procures hardware in exchange for palm oil.
• Mixing and matching equipment: The Malonnn military sources weapons systems and platforms from a large variety of foreign suppliers. This makes it difficult to find personnel to manage the equipment.
• Budgetary uncertainty: There is budgetary uncertainty in defense procurement.
• Opaque decision making: Decision making in defense procurement is opaque.
• Shifting priorities: Priorities in defense procurement shift.
• Sustainability: There are issues with sustaining logistics support during an operation.
• Voting system: The voting system for contractors has issues, such as not considering the value of the jobs.
===========
The Malonnn Coast Guard, also known as the Malonnn Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA), faces several weaknesses, including:
• Lack of coordination
There is poor coordination between the MMEA and other government agencies that are responsible for protecting the coast.
• Insufficient defense budget
Malonn's defense budget is less than 1% of its GDP, which is much lower than neighboring Singapore's 6%.
• Old and outgunned boats
Many of the boats patrolling the coast are old, slow, and not well-equipped.
• Competition with other law enforcement agencies
The MMEA struggles to become the sole maritime law enforcement agency in Malonn.
• Lack of cooperation with other coast guards
The MMEA has been absent from many cooperation-focused conversations with other coast guards.

It also includes funding for intended single year procurements in that particular year as well, such as for small arms, communication equipment, small quantities of specialised vehicles or support vehicles and so on. Funding for large ticket items or programmes that require multi-year payments are usually assessed by the finance ministry. This is then subject to cabinet approval as to whether the country can afford to fund the programme with the money then set aside but not included in the annual budget for the year. It is only allocated once a formal procurement contract has been signed and then placed into the fiscal year budgets of the years that progressive payments are to be made.
Therefore it is difficult to actually assess how much is available for defence procurement in a given year as the funding availability for defence procurement programmes and requirements are assessed behind closed doors by the Finance Ministry on a case by case basis. Once done this is then sent for approval with the Prime Minister and his cabinet having the final say on a large ticket procurement, and any outcome only known if the government decides to announce it rather than being published in official publicly accessible documents. For example on 15 March this year, Malonn Defence Minister Khaled Nordin announced on his social media account on X that the Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF), for this year, had been allocated $232 million (RM1.13 billon) to carry out all its programmes such as procurement, supply, replacement and upgrades of assets and national airspace equipment. “This amount does not include the phase 1 procurement for the RMAF of 12 new helicopters of which $590 million (RM2.8 billon) had been approved this year with delivery of the helicopters scheduled in 2028”, posted Khaled
Another factor that has also hindered Malon’s defence development has been the frequent change of governments since 2018 which since that year has seen Malon go through four Prime Ministers and governments before a general election at the end of 2022 bought about the present administration. The current political opposition has even talked of ousting the present government via defections of Members of Parliament (MPs) and political parties from the ruling coalition. Coupled with the need to revitalised a slow economy, the government is still grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and an overall need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit giving it more than enough priorities to focus on outside of defence. It has approved and funded some programmes that had been initiated by past governments and is going through the process of approving a few other programmes
Some causes of issues with military logistics in Malonn include:
Hapus• Security threats: Malonn's military development and defense policy are influenced by security threats, which have changed from traditional to non-traditional.
• Budget: Budget constraints and uncertain timelines can impact the supply chain and collaboration with other international firms.
• Political intervention: Political intervention in spending can impact military logistics.
• Outdated equipment: Outdated equipment can impact military logistics.
• Privatization: Privatization of the logistics division can impact military logistics.
• Purchases: Purchases that are not based on real needs can impact military logistics.
• Readiness: Low level of readiness can impact military logistics.
============
The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) faces several problems, including:
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF has faced challenges maintaining its fleet of aircraft. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were able to fly due to maintenance issues and a lack of spare parts.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.
============-
The Royal Malonn Navy (RMN) faces several challenges, including:
• Aging fleet: More than half of the RMN's fleet is past its prime, and the country has only received four of the 18 new vessels it planned to acquire. The last time the RMN acquired a combat ship was in 1997.
• Delayed replacements: The RMN's plans to replace its aging fleet have been stalled due to mismanagement.
• Insufficient defense budget: Malon's defense budget is less than one percent of its GDP, while neighboring Singapore spends six percent.
• Lack of coordination: There is a lack of coordination among agencies.
• Outdated assets: The RMN's ships and assets are outdated.
• Combat system issues: The RMN has observed deficiencies with the combat system of its LMS type vessels.
• Low endurance: The LCS's endurance was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Lack of air and surface warfare capabilities: The LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities
============
Some factors that contribute to the Malonn Army's perceived weakness include:
• Political instability: Frequent government changes since 2018 have made it difficult for the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) to receive the support it needs.
• Corruption: The MAF has been plagued by corruption.
• Poor planning: The MAF has been criticized for poor planning.
• Political interference: Political leaders have interfered in the MAF's procurement process.
• Outdated equipment: Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government has been unable to provide modern equipment.
Lack of military knowledge: Military personnel have struggled with decision-making and problem-solving during military operations
Malonn's military procurement has several weaknesses, including:
BalasHapus• Corruption: The defense sector is vulnerable to corruption, and there is a high risk of corruption.
• Weak parliamentary oversight: Parliamentary oversight is weak, and financial scrutiny is limited by excessive secrecy.
• External influences: Decisions are often influenced by vendors and are against strategic interests. For example, Malonn sometimes procures hardware in exchange for palm oil.
• Mixing and matching equipment: The Malonnn military sources weapons systems and platforms from a large variety of foreign suppliers. This makes it difficult to find personnel to manage the equipment.
• Budgetary uncertainty: There is budgetary uncertainty in defense procurement.
• Opaque decision making: Decision making in defense procurement is opaque.
• Shifting priorities: Priorities in defense procurement shift.
• Sustainability: There are issues with sustaining logistics support during an operation.
• Voting system: The voting system for contractors has issues, such as not considering the value of the jobs.
===========
The Malonnn Coast Guard, also known as the Malonnn Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA), faces several weaknesses, including:
• Lack of coordination
There is poor coordination between the MMEA and other government agencies that are responsible for protecting the coast.
• Insufficient defense budget
Malonn's defense budget is less than 1% of its GDP, which is much lower than neighboring Singapore's 6%.
• Old and outgunned boats
Many of the boats patrolling the coast are old, slow, and not well-equipped.
• Competition with other law enforcement agencies
The MMEA struggles to become the sole maritime law enforcement agency in Malonn.
• Lack of cooperation with other coast guards
The MMEA has been absent from many cooperation-focused conversations with other coast guards.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

HapusMalon's military faces a number of challenges, including:
• Budgetary constraints
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund the military by reducing government spending or the size of the armed forces.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonn military's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the 1990s, and is now considered outdated.
• Lack of authority
The armed forces are generally given a limited role in dealing with non-traditional security threats, and are often called upon to assist other authorities.
• Tension between the public and the military
There is a tension between the public's right to know and the military's need-to-know policies.
• Socio-economic class divisions
There are socio-economic class divisions within the military, with enlisted personnel generally coming from lower socio-economic backgrounds, and officers coming from middle and upper middle classes.
• Corruption
The military has been involved in a number of corruption scandals.
Other challenges include:
• Lack of standard operating procedures
• The need to adapt to the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
• The need to consider the regional strategic environment
==========
Malonn's defense budget is considered not in accordance with its objectives. Some of the things to consider are:
• The allocation of salaries and allowances for 2024 reaches 40% of the total defense budget.
• The allocation for procurement has increased slightly from 2023, but there may be no real benefit due to the depreciation of the ringgit.
• The Ministry of Finance assesses the availability of funds for programs and procurement requirements in private.
• Hundreds of Malonnn military assets have exceeded the 30-year service limit.
==========
Malonn has faced several crises, including political, financial, and economic crises:
• Political crisis
From 2020–2022, Malonn experienced a political crisis that led to the resignation of two Prime Ministers and the collapse of two coalition governments. The crisis was caused by political infighting, party switching, and the refusal of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad to transition power to Anwar Ibrahim. The crisis ended in 2022 with a snap general election and the formation of a coalition government.
• Financial crisis
Malonn experienced a financial crisis when the country's economic fundamentals appeared strong, but the crisis came suddenly. The government's initial response was to increase interest rates and tighten fiscal policy, but this was not enough to correct the external imbalances.
• Economic crisis
Malonn's economy has faced challenges due to weak global demand and a dependence on exports. In 2020, Malonn's economy shrank by the most since the Asian crisis. In 2023, weak global demand for electronics and a decline in energy prices weighed on the economy.
• Household debt crisis
As of the end of 2023, Malonn's household debt-to-GDP ratio was 84.2%, with household debt reaching RM1.53 trillion
• Malonn has faced several rice crises in the past, including in 1973–1975, the 1980s, 1997–1998, 2008, and 2023. These crises are often caused by price hikes, which are driven by supply and demand, as well as market player behavior

PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

Malonn has agreed in principle to purchase medium-range missiles from China, which in return will transfer technology on very short-range air defence to the country, Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak said Tuesday.
The procurement of the surface-to-air missiles was part of the armed forces modernisation program and would be made under the Ninth Malonn Plan from 2006-2009, he was quoted as saying by Bernama news agency.
"Details of the procurement and offset programme will be finalised later should Malonn give its full commitment," he said after the signing of a memorandum of understanding on the purchase. The cost of the weapons were not revealed.
Under the pact between China National Precision Machinery Import and Export Corp. and two local companies, CNPMIEC would transfer technology on production of the FN-6 shoulder-launched missiles to Malonn if it purchases its medium-range KS-1A missiles, Bernama said.
This includes provisions for special test facilities, tools, manufacturing process document, training and technical support.
CNPMIEC president Wang Bingyan said China had also offered to conclude the KS-1A transaction on flexible payment terms, including counter-trade, barter and deferred payments.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

BalasHapusMalon's military faces a number of challenges, including:
• Budgetary constraints
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund the military by reducing government spending or the size of the armed forces.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonn military's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the 1990s, and is now considered outdated.
• Lack of authority
The armed forces are generally given a limited role in dealing with non-traditional security threats, and are often called upon to assist other authorities.
• Tension between the public and the military
There is a tension between the public's right to know and the military's need-to-know policies.
• Socio-economic class divisions
There are socio-economic class divisions within the military, with enlisted personnel generally coming from lower socio-economic backgrounds, and officers coming from middle and upper middle classes.
• Corruption
The military has been involved in a number of corruption scandals.
Other challenges include:
• Lack of standard operating procedures
• The need to adapt to the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
• The need to consider the regional strategic environment
==========
Malonn's defense budget is considered not in accordance with its objectives. Some of the things to consider are:
• The allocation of salaries and allowances for 2024 reaches 40% of the total defense budget.
• The allocation for procurement has increased slightly from 2023, but there may be no real benefit due to the depreciation of the ringgit.
• The Ministry of Finance assesses the availability of funds for programs and procurement requirements in private.
• Hundreds of Malonnn military assets have exceeded the 30-year service limit.
==========
Malonn has faced several crises, including political, financial, and economic crises:
• Political crisis
From 2020–2022, Malonn experienced a political crisis that led to the resignation of two Prime Ministers and the collapse of two coalition governments. The crisis was caused by political infighting, party switching, and the refusal of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad to transition power to Anwar Ibrahim. The crisis ended in 2022 with a snap general election and the formation of a coalition government.
• Financial crisis
Malonn experienced a financial crisis when the country's economic fundamentals appeared strong, but the crisis came suddenly. The government's initial response was to increase interest rates and tighten fiscal policy, but this was not enough to correct the external imbalances.
• Economic crisis
Malonn's economy has faced challenges due to weak global demand and a dependence on exports. In 2020, Malonn's economy shrank by the most since the Asian crisis. In 2023, weak global demand for electronics and a decline in energy prices weighed on the economy.
• Household debt crisis
As of the end of 2023, Malonn's household debt-to-GDP ratio was 84.2%, with household debt reaching RM1.53 trillion
• Malonn has faced several rice crises in the past, including in 1973–1975, the 1980s, 1997–1998, 2008, and 2023. These crises are often caused by price hikes, which are driven by supply and demand, as well as market player behavior

Malonn's military procurement has several weaknesses, including:
Hapus• Corruption: The defense sector is vulnerable to corruption, and there is a high risk of corruption.
• Weak parliamentary oversight: Parliamentary oversight is weak, and financial scrutiny is limited by excessive secrecy.
• External influences: Decisions are often influenced by vendors and are against strategic interests. For example, Malonn sometimes procures hardware in exchange for palm oil.
• Mixing and matching equipment: The Malonnn military sources weapons systems and platforms from a large variety of foreign suppliers. This makes it difficult to find personnel to manage the equipment.
• Budgetary uncertainty: There is budgetary uncertainty in defense procurement.
• Opaque decision making: Decision making in defense procurement is opaque.

The MMEA struggles to become the sole maritime law enforcement agency in Malonn.
• Lack of cooperation with other coast guards
The MMEA has been absent from many cooperation-focused conversations with other coast guards.

THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES FACED BY MAF
the issues and challenges faced by the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) in force modernization. MAF’s existing strategic plan and capability planning approaches was assessed initially. This was followed by validating capabilities-based approaches employed by other modern defence forces. Challenges and issues for MAF in adopting a similar approach are discussed. It was concluded that chief among these challenges was invigorating greater leadership in defence planning. Subsequently, the national security and defence policies must be aligned to provide clearer direction for the military strategy. Other challenges include the need to break old mind-sets vis-à-vis service rivalry. In a resource constrained environment, MAF’s force development has to be addressed through a more methodological approach in the form of CBP. Insights and best practices from around the world have to be adopted to avoid the debilitating pitfalls and obstacles
The country’s military development is a need to the country to ensure its viability. With the development of threat that not only traditional threat but it changes to the non-traditional threats. The security threat has influence the country’s military development and Defence Policy. It also implicates Malon which actively developing the military after the Cold War in 1991. Between 1957 to 1991, Malon has been focusing to the threat in the country specifically the communist threat that affects the country’s safety and sovereignty. After the peace treaty between PKM and Malonn government in 1989, Malon begins to actively developing the military.

Malonn has agreed in principle to purchase medium-range missiles from China, which in return will transfer technology on very short-range air defence to the country, Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak said Tuesday.
The procurement of the surface-to-air missiles was part of the armed forces modernisation program and would be made under the Ninth Malonn Plan from 2006-2009, he was quoted as saying by Bernama news agency.
"Details of the procurement and offset programme will be finalised later should Malonn give its full commitment," he said after the signing of a memorandum of understanding on the purchase. The cost of the weapons were not revealed.
Under the pact between China National Precision Machinery Import and Export Corp. and two local companies, CNPMIEC would transfer technology on production of the FN-6 shoulder-launched missiles to Malonn if it purchases its medium-range KS-1A missiles, Bernama said.
This includes provisions for special test facilities, tools, manufacturing process document, training and technical support.

Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

Malonn's military has faced a number of challenges in maintaining its equipment, including:
Hapus• Budgetary limitations
Successive governments have been unwilling to cut spending elsewhere or reduce the size of the armed forces.
• Corruption
Defence procurement has been characterized by corruption, budgetary uncertainty, and opaque decision making.
• Outdated equipment
The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) has a large fleet of aging aircraft that are difficult to maintain.
• Political interference
Political interference has undermined combat readiness.
• Logistics weaknesses
There are issues with the quality of logistics equipment and the delivery of spares to soldiers
===========
The Malonnn military has several weaknesses, including:
• Corruption
Corruption is a problem in the Malonnn military, and is not addressed in a strategic document. Commanders are not trained on corruption issues before deployments, which can leave troops unprepared to respond to corruption risks.
• Poor planning
The Malonnn military has poor planning and political interference in procurement.
• Underfunding
The Malonnn military is underfunded, with the navy and air force struggling to acquire new assets.
• Dependence on foreign suppliers
The Malonnn military's defense capabilities are highly dependent on foreign suppliers.
• Lack of doctrine
The Malonnn military has no military doctrine that recognizes corruption.

KUALA LUMPUR – Rancangan perolehan aset baharu Tentera Laut Diraja Malon (TLDM) dijangka akan menelan belanja sekurang-kurangnya RM10 bilion untuk tempoh Rancangan Malon Ke-13 (RMKe-13).
Perkara tersebut dinyatakan oleh Timbalan Menteri Pertahanan, Adly Zahari semasa Perbahasan Penggulungan Laporan Ketua Audit Negara (LKAN) di Dewan Rakyat, hari ini.
Menurut beliau, perolehan Kapal Misi Pesisir (Littoral Mission Ship) Batch Kedua (LMSB2) yang dilakukan oleh kerajaan pada Jun lalu merupakan sebahagian daripada usaha untuk memperkasakan armada TLDM.
“Di bawah RMKe-13 pula, usaha memperkasakan armada TLDM diteruskan dengan termeterainya perjanjian perolehan bagi tiga buah kapal Littoral Mission Ship Batch 2 dengan negara Turkiye baru-baru ini,” katanya di Dewan Rakyat.
Perolehan 3 buah LMSB2 itu dilakukan melalui kaedah Government to Government (G2G) dengan negara Turkiye.
RMKe-13 merangkumi tempoh tahun 2026-2030.
“Perolehan bagi baki 3 buah LMS lagi akan dimasukkan di bawah RMKe-13,” ujar beliau.
Selain LMS, TLDM turut merancang perolehan 2 buah kapal Multi Role Support Ship (MRSS), 3 buah kapal Littoral Mission Ship Batch 3, 4 buah helikopter anti kapal selam dan 6 buah Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV).
“Proses perolehan bagi aset-aset baharu ini dijangka berlangsung sehingga 2030. Kesemua perolehan aset TLDM ini dianggarkan berjumlah RM10 – RM11 bilion bergantung kepada keadaan ekonomi semasa kerajaan,” katanya.

HASIL STUDI = BELANJA PERTAHANAN TERGANTUNG HUTANG
The results reveal a robust positive association between Public Debt and Defence Spending, substantiated by the significant coefficient of 0.7601 (p < 0.01). This suggests that an increase in Public Debt corresponds to a substantial rise in Defence Spending. Additionally, the study underscores the influence of Gross Domestic Saving and Exchange Rate on Defence Spending, with coefficients of 1.5996 (p < 0.01) and 0.4703 (p < 0.05), respectively. These findings contribute valuable insights into the fiscal dynamics of Malon's defence budget, shedding light on the interplay between Public Debt and strategic resource allocation. The incorporation of control variables enhances the robustness of the analysis, providing a nuanced understanding of the factors shaping defence spending in the Malonn context.
Factors that influence the Malonnn Army include:
Hapus• Motivation
Factors like leadership style, career development, and work environment can affect the performance of instructors in the Army Training Centers.
• Logistics
Logistics is a fundamental part of combat power, and is the only thing that can start and maintain logistics support.
• Procurement performance
The lack of standard operating procedures can be a key issue in procurement performance.
• Governance structure
Governance structure is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Culture
Culture is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.

============
Malonn's military budget is not small compared to other ASEAN countries, but there are some factors that affect its size:
• Aging assets
Most of the equipment in the Malonnn Armed Forces (MAF) was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s, and is now outdated.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
The ringgit's depreciation means that an increase in procurement funding may not result in a real gain.
• Foreign equipment
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacturing is also dependent on foreign OEMs.
• Rising threats
Some say that the 2025 budget allocation of RM21.2 billion for the defense ministry is insufficient due to rising regional threats..
============
The Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Outdated equipment
Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government is unable to provide modern assets. For example, the KD Rahman submarine was unable to submerge due to technical issues in 2010.
• Misappropriation of funds
There have been multiple instances of public funds being misappropriated under the guise of meeting defense needs.
• Army-centric mindset
Malon has an army-centric mindset, even though the country is surrounded by water.
• Double budgetary allocation
The army receives more of the budget than the other services.
• Lack of standard operating procedures
There are issues with standard operating procedures, from the e-procurement process to inventory receipts.
• Tension between public and military
There is tension between the public's right to know and the military's "need-to-know" policies
BalasHapusThe Malonnn air defense system faces some challenges, including:
• Budget constraints
The government's defense budget is limited and must be balanced with other national priorities.
• Regional competition
Neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore are also increasing their air force capabilities, which Malonn must keep pace with.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also dependent on foreign OEMs
===========
Some weaknesses of the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) include:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government's budgeting process doesn't provide a clear vision of what the armed forces can expect to procure and when. The 1997 Asian financial crisis also held back many procurement efforts.
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF faces serious fleet sustainment problems. A larger fleet of aging aircraft would be difficult to maintain.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are rapidly becoming technologically obsolete
===========
Malonn's armed forces face several weaknesses, including:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government has been unwilling to increase defense funding by cutting other government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces. As a percentage of GDP, the military budget has never exceeded 1.5% in the past 20 years.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonnn Armed Forces' (MAF) equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s. The MAF lacks modern military assets to meet the challenges of internal and external threats.
• Corruption
The MAF has been plagued by corruption, including in procurement, which is vulnerable to powerful interests.
• Limited authority
The MAF's role in non-traditional security challenges is generally to assist other authorities, such as the police.
• Low ranking in military capability
According to the Lowy Institute Asia Power Index, Malonn ranks 16th in military capability, which is its lowest ranking

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.

BUDGET 2025 = SALARIES AND ALLOWANCES
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.
The Malonnn air defense system faces some challenges, including:
Hapus• Budget constraints
The government's defense budget is limited and must be balanced with other national priorities.
• Regional competition
Neighboring countries like Indonesia and Singapore are also increasing their air force capabilities, which Malonn must keep pace with.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also dependent on foreign OEMs
===========
Some weaknesses of the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) include:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government's budgeting process doesn't provide a clear vision of what the armed forces can expect to procure and when. The 1997 Asian financial crisis also held back many procurement efforts.
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF faces serious fleet sustainment problems. A larger fleet of aging aircraft would be difficult to maintain.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are rapidly becoming technologically obsolete
===========
Malonn's armed forces face several weaknesses, including:
• Budgetary constraints
The Malonnn government has been unwilling to increase defense funding by cutting other government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces. As a percentage of GDP, the military budget has never exceeded 1.5% in the past 20 years.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonnn Armed Forces' (MAF) equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s. The MAF lacks modern military assets to meet the challenges of internal and external threats.
• Corruption
The MAF has been plagued by corruption, including in procurement, which is vulnerable to powerful interests.
• Limited authority
The MAF's role in non-traditional security challenges is generally to assist other authorities, such as the police.
• Low ranking in military capability
According to the Lowy Institute Asia Power Index, Malonn ranks 16th in military capability, which is its lowest ranking
THE MALONN GOVERNMENT’S BUDGETING PROCESS STILL DOES NOT GIVE ITS ARMED FORCES A CLEAR VISION OF WHAT PROCUREMENT TO EXPECT, AND WHEN.
HapusIn contrast to its neighbours in South East Asia, progress in Malon’s defence has been limited since 2018 due to a combination of various factors. The main factor has always been fiscal limitation with successive Malonn governments unwilling to fund defence by cutting government spending elsewhere or reducing the size of the armed forces by reducing manpower and equipment.
The 2024 defence budget allocated $4.16 billion (RM19.73 billion) for defence, but the allocation for salaries and allowances for 2024 amounted to $1.7 billion (RM8.2 billion), which is slightly over 40 percent of the total defence budget. In contrast the allocation for procurement amounted to $1.2 billion (RM5.71 billion), a slight increase from 2023’s allocation of $1.06 billion (RM5.04 billion). However, given the depreciation of the ringgit and the fact that Malon sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also significantly dependent on foreign OEMs, there may not actually be a real gain in procurement funding with the increase merely compensating for the ringgit’s depreciation.
It also includes funding for intended single year procurements in that particular year as well, such as for small arms, communication equipment, small quantities of specialised vehicles or support vehicles and so on. Funding for large ticket items or programmes that require multi-year payments are usually assessed by the finance ministry. This is then subject to cabinet approval as to whether the country can afford to fund the programme with the money then set aside but not included in the annual budget for the year. It is only allocated once a formal procurement contract has been signed and then placed into the fiscal year budgets of the years that progressive payments are to be made.
Therefore it is difficult to actually assess how much is available for defence procurement in a given year as the funding availability for defence procurement programmes and requirements are assessed behind closed doors by the Finance Ministry on a case by case basis. Once done this is then sent for approval with the Prime Minister and his cabinet having the final say on a large ticket procurement, and any outcome only known if the government decides to announce it rather than being published in official publicly accessible documents. For example on 15 March this year, Malonn Defence Minister Khaled Nordin announced on his social media account on X that the Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF), for this year, had been allocated $232 million (RM1.13 billon) to carry out all its programmes such as procurement, supply, replacement and upgrades of assets and national airspace equipment. “This amount does not include the phase 1 procurement for the RMAF of 12 new helicopters of which $590 million (RM2.8 billon) had been approved this year with delivery of the helicopters scheduled in 2028”, posted Khaled
Another factor that has also hindered Malon’s defence development has been the frequent change of governments since 2018 which since that year has seen Malon go through four Prime Ministers and governments before a general election at the end of 2022 bought about the present administration. The current political opposition has even talked of ousting the present government via defections of Members of Parliament (MPs) and political parties from the ruling coalition. Coupled with the need to revitalised a slow economy, the government is still grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and an overall need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit giving it more than enough priorities to focus on outside of defence. It has approved and funded some programmes that had been initiated by past governments and is going through the process of approving a few other programmes
• Motivation
HapusFactors like leadership style, career development, and work environment can affect the performance of instructors in the Army Training Centers.
• Logistics
Logistics is a fundamental part of combat power, and is the only thing that can start and maintain logistics support.
• Procurement performance
The lack of standard operating procedures can be a key issue in procurement performance.
• Governance structure
Governance structure is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Culture
Culture is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.

============
Malonn's military budget is not small compared to other ASEAN countries, but there are some factors that affect its size:
• Aging assets
Most of the equipment in the Malonnn Armed Forces (MAF) was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s, and is now outdated.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
The ringgit's depreciation means that an increase in procurement funding may not result in a real gain.
• Foreign equipment
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacturing is also dependent on foreign OEMs.
• Rising threats
Some say that the 2025 budget allocation of RM21.2 billion for the defense ministry is insufficient due to rising regional threats..
============
The Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Outdated equipment
Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government is unable to provide modern assets. For example, the KD Rahman submarine was unable to submerge due to technical issues in 2010.
• Misappropriation of funds
There have been multiple instances of public funds being misappropriated under the guise of meeting defense needs.
• Army-centric mindset
Malon has an army-centric mindset, even though the country is surrounded by water.
• Double budgetary allocation
The army receives more of the budget than the other services.
• Lack of standard operating procedures
There are issues with standard operating procedures, from the e-procurement process to inventory receipts.
• Tension between public and military
There is tension between the public's right to know and the military's "need-to-know" policies

HASIL STUDI = BELANJA PERTAHANAN TERGANTUNG HUTANG
The results reveal a robust positive association between Public Debt and Defence Spending, substantiated by the significant coefficient of 0.7601 (p < 0.01). This suggests that an increase in Public Debt corresponds to a substantial rise in Defence Spending. Additionally, the study underscores the influence of Gross Domestic Saving and Exchange Rate on Defence Spending, with coefficients of 1.5996 (p < 0.01) and 0.4703 (p < 0.05), respectively. These findings contribute valuable insights into the fiscal dynamics of Malon's defence budget, shedding light on the interplay between Public Debt and strategic resource allocation. The incorporation of control variables enhances the robustness of the analysis, providing a nuanced understanding of the factors shaping defence spending in the Malonn context.
Malonn's military procurement has several weaknesses, including:
Hapus• Corruption: The defense sector is vulnerable to corruption, and there is a high risk of corruption.
• Weak parliamentary oversight: Parliamentary oversight is weak, and financial scrutiny is limited by excessive secrecy.
• External influences: Decisions are often influenced by vendors and are against strategic interests. For example, Malonn sometimes procures hardware in exchange for palm oil.
• Mixing and matching equipment: The Malonnn military sources weapons systems and platforms from a large variety of foreign suppliers. This makes it difficult to find personnel to manage the equipment.
• Budgetary uncertainty: There is budgetary uncertainty in defense procurement.
• Opaque decision making: Decision making in defense procurement is opaque.
• Shifting priorities: Priorities in defense procurement shift.
• Sustainability: There are issues with sustaining logistics support during an operation.
• Voting system: The voting system for contractors has issues, such as not considering the value of the jobs.
===========
The Malonnn Coast Guard, also known as the Malonnn Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA), faces several weaknesses, including:
• Lack of coordination
There is poor coordination between the MMEA and other government agencies that are responsible for protecting the coast.
• Insufficient defense budget
Malonn's defense budget is less than 1% of its GDP, which is much lower than neighboring Singapore's 6%.
• Old and outgunned boats
Many of the boats patrolling the coast are old, slow, and not well-equipped.
• Competition with other law enforcement agencies
The MMEA struggles to become the sole maritime law enforcement agency in Malonn.
• Lack of cooperation with other coast guards
The MMEA has been absent from many cooperation-focused conversations with other coast guards.

THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES FACED BY MAF
the issues and challenges faced by the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) in force modernization. MAF’s existing strategic plan and capability planning approaches was assessed initially. This was followed by validating capabilities-based approaches employed by other modern defence forces. Challenges and issues for MAF in adopting a similar approach are discussed. It was concluded that chief among these challenges was invigorating greater leadership in defence planning. Subsequently, the national security and defence policies must be aligned to provide clearer direction for the military strategy. Other challenges include the need to break old mind-sets vis-à-vis service rivalry. In a resource constrained environment, MAF’s force development has to be addressed through a more methodological approach in the form of CBP. Insights and best practices from around the world have to be adopted to avoid the debilitating pitfalls and obstacles
The country’s military development is a need to the country to ensure its viability. With the development of threat that not only traditional threat but it changes to the non-traditional threats. The security threat has influence the country’s military development and Defence Policy. It also implicates Malon which actively developing the military after the Cold War in 1991. Between 1957 to 1991, Malon has been focusing to the threat in the country specifically the communist threat that affects the country’s safety and sovereignty. After the peace treaty between PKM and Malonn government in 1989, Malon begins to actively developing the military. It is seen as a need for Malon to ensure the safety and defence of the country is in red alert to face any threat. However, in the rapid development of the military, there are some who see Malon is having problem to ensure the country’s readiness in facing the threat. With various negative issues being reported, it has raised question on the current status and the problem that Malon is facing in ensuring Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) readiness.

Former Royal Malonnn Navy (RMN) chief Tan Sri Ahmad Ramli Mohd Nor failed to quash his three counts of criminal breach of trust totalling RM21 million over the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) project scandal.
High Court judge Datuk Azhar Abdul Hamid made the decision today on grounds that the issue of the 80-year-old accused's mental fitness to stand trial should be investigated by the trial judge.
The High Court also ordered the case to be remitted back to the Sessions Court before judge Suzana Hussain.

HIBAH KAPAL SELAM BUATAN 1979 Built in 1979, the French made submarine measured 67.57 meter in length, 11.75 meter in heigh and 6.5 meter in width. SMD Ouessant was previously used for training submarine crew in Malon from 2005 to 2009 Malonn's military procurement has several weaknesses, including:
• Corruption: The defense sector is vulnerable to corruption, and there is a high risk of corruption.
• Weak parliamentary oversight: Parliamentary oversight is weak, and financial scrutiny is limited by excessive secrecy.
• External influences: Decisions are often influenced by vendors and are against strategic interests. For example, Malonn sometimes procures hardware in exchange for palm oil.
• Mixing and matching equipment: The Malonnn military sources weapons systems and platforms from a large variety of foreign suppliers. This makes it difficult to find personnel to manage the equipment.
• Budgetary uncertainty: There is budgetary uncertainty in defense procurement.
• Opaque decision making: Decision making in defense procurement is opaque.
• Shifting priorities: Priorities in defense procurement shift.
• Sustainability: There are issues with sustaining logistics support during an operation.
Voting system: The voting system for contractors has issues, such as not considering the value of the jobs
Malon's military faces a number of challenges, including:
Hapus• Budgetary constraints
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund the military by reducing government spending or the size of the armed forces.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonn military's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the 1990s, and is now considered outdated.
• Lack of authority
The armed forces are generally given a limited role in dealing with non-traditional security threats, and are often called upon to assist other authorities.
• Tension between the public and the military
There is a tension between the public's right to know and the military's need-to-know policies.
• Socio-economic class divisions
There are socio-economic class divisions within the military, with enlisted personnel generally coming from lower socio-economic backgrounds, and officers coming from middle and upper middle classes.
• Corruption
The military has been involved in a number of corruption scandals.
Other challenges include:
• Lack of standard operating procedures
• The need to adapt to the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
• The need to consider the regional strategic environment
==========
Malonn's defense budget is considered not in accordance with its objectives. Some of the things to consider are:
• The allocation of salaries and allowances for 2024 reaches 40% of the total defense budget.
• The allocation for procurement has increased slightly from 2023, but there may be no real benefit due to the depreciation of the ringgit.
• The Ministry of Finance assesses the availability of funds for programs and procurement requirements in private.
• Hundreds of Malonnn military assets have exceeded the 30-year service limit.
==========
Malonn has faced several crises, including political, financial, and economic crises:
• Political crisis
From 2020–2022, Malonn experienced a political crisis that led to the resignation of two Prime Ministers and the collapse of two coalition governments. The crisis was caused by political infighting, party switching, and the refusal of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad to transition power to Anwar Ibrahim. The crisis ended in 2022 with a snap general election and the formation of a coalition government.
• Financial crisis
Malonn experienced a financial crisis when the country's economic fundamentals appeared strong, but the crisis came suddenly. The government's initial response was to increase interest rates and tighten fiscal policy, but this was not enough to correct the external imbalances.
• Economic crisis
Malonn's economy has faced challenges due to weak global demand and a dependence on exports. In 2020, Malonn's economy shrank by the most since the Asian crisis. In 2023, weak global demand for electronics and a decline in energy prices weighed on the economy.
• Household debt crisis
As of the end of 2023, Malonn's household debt-to-GDP ratio was 84.2%, with household debt reaching RM1.53 trillion
• Malonn has faced several rice crises in the past, including in 1973–1975, the 1980s, 1997–1998, 2008, and 2023. These crises are often caused by price hikes, which are driven by supply and demand, as well as market player behavior
BUDGET 2025 = SALARIES AND ALLOWANCES

BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.

RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

Factors that influence the Malonnn Army include:
Hapus• Motivation
Factors like leadership style, career development, and work environment can affect the performance of instructors in the Army Training Centers.
• Logistics
Logistics is a fundamental part of combat power, and is the only thing that can start and maintain logistics support.
• Procurement performance
The lack of standard operating procedures can be a key issue in procurement performance.
• Governance structure
Governance structure is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Culture
Culture is one of the main factors that impact the implementation of electronic records and information management.
• Strategic planning

============
Malonn's military budget is not small compared to other ASEAN countries, but there are some factors that affect its size:
• Aging assets
Most of the equipment in the Malonnn Armed Forces (MAF) was purchased between the 1970s and the end of the 1990s, and is now outdated.
• Depreciation of the ringgit
The ringgit's depreciation means that an increase in procurement funding may not result in a real gain.
• Foreign equipment
Malonn sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacturing is also dependent on foreign OEMs.
• Rising threats
Some say that the 2025 budget allocation of RM21.2 billion for the defense ministry is insufficient due to rising regional threats..
============
The Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Outdated equipment
Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government is unable to provide modern assets. For example, the KD Rahman submarine was unable to submerge due to technical issues in 2010.
• Misappropriation of funds
There have been multiple instances of public funds being misappropriated under the guise of meeting defense needs.
• Army-centric mindset
Malon has an army-centric mindset, even though the country is surrounded by water.
• Double budgetary allocation
The army receives more of the budget than the other services.
• Lack of standard operating procedures
There are issues with standard operating procedures, from the e-procurement process to inventory receipts.
• Tension between public and military
There is tension between the public's right to know and the military's "need-to-know" policies
Several factors affect Malonn's military defense, including:
Hapus• Funding
Malonn's defense budget has been limited by successive governments' unwillingness to cut spending elsewhere or reduce the size of the armed forces. The 2024 defense budget allocated $4.16 billion for defense, but salaries and allowances accounted for over 40% of that.
• Equipment
Malonn's defense capabilities are dependent on foreign suppliers, and much of its equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s. The country also faces technical and logistical problems with its advanced weapon systems, which come from different countries.
• Threats
Malonn faces a range of threats, including territorial disputes, non-traditional threats, and the need to prepare for conflict in the South China Sea.
• Procurement
The Malonnn procurement system needs reform. The country's diversified acquisitions can contribute to increased costs.
• Local industry
The government should encourage novice product trials to support local industry. The development of local products should be guided by military doctrine.
• National defense policy
The military's organizational structure needs to be able to address both conventional and non-conventional threats. The military's underlying principles, culture, and structure need to be examined to keep up with the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
============
Several factors influence Malonn's military budget, including:
• Regional tensions
Malonn's military budget is affected by regional tensions, especially in the South China Sea. The country is seeking to protect its sovereignty and address security threats like terrorism and piracy.
• Investment in UN peacekeeping missions
Malonn's defense budget is also affected by its investment in UN peacekeeping missions.
• Need to upgrade the military
Malonn's defense budget is driven by the need to upgrade its military. The country is replacing aging equipment with new naval vessels, fighter jets, and other advanced platforms.
• Welfare of armed forces personnel and veterans
The defense budget also addresses the welfare of armed forces personnel and veterans. This includes improving learning environments in military camp schools, increasing internet access, and enhancing housing conditions.
============
Factors that have caused Malonnn fighter jets to be grounded include maintenance issues, lack of spare parts, and differing upgrades to systems:
• Sukhoi Su-30MKM
In 2018, the Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) reported that only four of its 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were flyable due to maintenance issues and lack of spares.
• Hornet fighter jets
The Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block than the Malonnn fighters, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts. The aircraft have also received different system upgrades, which can make maintenance more complex
Factors that influence Malon's military budget include:
Hapus• Fiscal limitations
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund defense by cutting government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces.
• Public debt
A study found a positive association between public debt and defense spending in Malon.
• Exchange rate
The depreciation of the ringgit can impact the real gain in procurement funding.
• Military imports
The size of military imports is closely linked to variations in expenditure.
• Military aid
The availability of military aid plays a central role in military expenditure.
• Non-conventional security issues
These issues are beginning to shape and influence the nature of threats to national defense and security.
• Corruption
Corruption risks are critical in terms of military operations.
• Competition between the U.S.A. and China
The increasing competition between the U.S.A. and China has triggered an increase in military expenditure in the region.
• Conflicts and potential conflicts
Conflicts and potential conflicts between countries in the Southeast Asian region are permanent causes

171 ASET USANG
A total of 171 assets from all three branches of the Malonnn Armed Forces (ATM) have exceeded 30 years of service, underscoring the challenges posed by aging military equipment.
The issue was raised by Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin in response to a question from Lim Lip Eng (DAP-Kepong) during today’s parliamentary session.
However, the minister did not provide specific details on the types of assets beyond the 30-year threshold.
In recent years, military leaders have openly acknowledged the burden of outdated assets.
Earlier this month, Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) chief General Tan Sri Mohammad Ab Rahman disclosed to local media that 34 RMN vessels have surpassed their intended service life, with 28 of them over 40 years old.
According to General Mohammad, the age limit for RMN vessels is 35 years for submarines and 30 years for frigates, corvettes, logistics ships, next-generation patrol vessels, and hydrographic vessels.
Smaller vessels, such as fast patrol boats, mine warfare ships, sailing vessels, and tugboats, have an age limit of 24 years.
In July of last year, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim called for an overhaul of MAF’s procurement system, stressing the need for reform.
He argued that the preparedness of Malonn’s defense equipment, such as ships, aircraft, and tanks, must align with the country’s economic growth and evolving geopolitical and strategic landscape.

VSHORAD = LEASE
HapusVSHORAD = LEASE
The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.
============-
The Royal Malonn Navy (RMN) faces several challenges, including:
• Aging fleet: More than half of the RMN's fleet is past its prime, and the country has only received four of the 18 new vessels it planned to acquire. The last time the RMN acquired a combat ship was in 1997.
• Delayed replacements: The RMN's plans to replace its aging fleet have been stalled due to mismanagement.
• Insufficient defense budget: Malon's defense budget is less than one percent of its GDP, while neighboring Singapore spends six percent.
• Lack of coordination: There is a lack of coordination among agencies.
• Outdated assets: The RMN's ships and assets are outdated.
• Combat system issues: The RMN has observed deficiencies with the combat system of its LMS type vessels.
• Low endurance: The LCS's endurance was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Lack of air and surface warfare capabilities: The LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities
============
Some factors that contribute to the Malonn Army's perceived weakness include:
• Political instability: Frequent government changes since 2018 have made it difficult for the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) to receive the support it needs.

Lack of military knowledge: Military personnel have struggled with decision-making and problem-solving during military operations
============
Malonn's economy has faced a number of challenges, including:
• Global slowdown: Slower global trade, geopolitical tensions, and tighter monetary policies have contributed to Malonn's economic decline.
• Weakening global demand: A decline in demand from developed countries, such as the US, EU, and Japan, has negatively impacted Malonn's exports.
• Slowdown in China: A slowdown in Malonn's main trading partner, China, has also contributed to the economic downturn.
• High government debt: Malonn has high levels of household and corporate debt, as well as insufficient tax revenue.
• High dependency on food imports: Malonn imports 60% of the food it consumes.
• Erosion of price competitiveness: Increasing labor costs have eroded Malonn's price competitiveness.
Inflation concerns: The war in Ukraine has affected food prices, which are a significant import for Malonn

The Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Outdated equipment
Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government is unable to provide modern assets. For example, the KD Rahman submarine was unable to submerge due to technical issues in 2010.
• Misappropriation of funds
There have been multiple instances of public funds being misappropriated under the guise of meeting defense needs.
• Army-centric mindset
Malon has an army-centric mindset, even though the country is surrounded by water.
• Double budgetary allocation
The army receives more of the budget than the other services.
• Lack of standard operating procedures
There are issues with standard operating procedures, from the e-procurement process to inventory receipts.
• Tension between public and military
There is tension between the public's right to know and the military's "need-to-know" policies.

The complexity of these modifications has extended the development timeline, and now it’s expected that the aircrafts won’t be fully operational until after 2028, as originally planned
Factors that influence Malon's military budget include:
Hapus• Fiscal limitations
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund defense by cutting government spending or reducing the size of the armed forces.
• Public debt
A study found a positive association between public debt and defense spending in Malon.
• Exchange rate
The depreciation of the ringgit can impact the real gain in procurement funding.
• Military imports
The size of military imports is closely linked to variations in expenditure.
• Military aid
The availability of military aid plays a central role in military expenditure.
• Non-conventional security issues
These issues are beginning to shape and influence the nature of threats to national defense and security.
• Corruption
Corruption risks are critical in terms of military operations.
• Competition between the U.S.A. and China
The increasing competition between the U.S.A. and China has triggered an increase in military expenditure in the region.
• Conflicts and potential conflicts
Conflicts and potential conflicts between countries in the Southeast Asian region are permanent causes

A total of 171 assets from all three branches of the Malonnn Armed Forces (ATM) have exceeded 30 years of service, underscoring the challenges posed by aging military equipment.
The issue was raised by Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin in response to a question from Lim Lip Eng (DAP-Kepong) during today’s parliamentary session.
However, the minister did not provide specific details on the types of assets beyond the 30-year threshold.
In recent years, military leaders have openly acknowledged the burden of outdated assets.
Earlier this month, Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) chief General Tan Sri Mohammad Ab Rahman disclosed to local media that 34 RMN vessels have surpassed their intended service life, with 28 of them over 40 years old.
According to General Mohammad, the age limit for RMN vessels is 35 years for submarines and 30 years for frigates, corvettes, logistics ships, next-generation patrol vessels, and hydrographic vessels.
Smaller vessels, such as fast patrol boats, mine warfare ships, sailing vessels, and tugboats, have an age limit of 24 years.
In July of last year, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim called for an overhaul of MAF’s procurement system, stressing the need for reform.
He argued that the preparedness of Malonn’s defense equipment, such as ships, aircraft, and tanks, must align with the country’s economic growth and evolving geopolitical and strategic landscape.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

KUALA LUMPUR – Rancangan perolehan aset baharu Tentera Laut Diraja Malon (TLDM) dijangka akan menelan belanja sekurang-kurangnya RM10 bilion untuk tempoh Rancangan Malon Ke-13 (RMKe-13).
Perkara tersebut dinyatakan oleh Timbalan Menteri Pertahanan, Adly Zahari semasa Perbahasan Penggulungan Laporan Ketua Audit Negara (LKAN) di Dewan Rakyat, hari ini.
Menurut beliau, perolehan Kapal Misi Pesisir (Littoral Mission Ship) Batch Kedua (LMSB2) yang dilakukan oleh kerajaan pada Jun lalu merupakan sebahagian daripada usaha untuk memperkasakan armada TLDM.
“Di bawah RMKe-13 pula, usaha memperkasakan armada TLDM diteruskan dengan termeterainya perjanjian perolehan bagi tiga buah kapal Littoral Mission Ship Batch 2 dengan negara Turkiye baru-baru ini,” katanya di Dewan Rakyat.
Perolehan 3 buah LMSB2 itu dilakukan melalui kaedah Government to Government (G2G) dengan negara Turkiye.
RMKe-13 merangkumi tempoh tahun 2026-2030.
“Perolehan bagi baki 3 buah LMS lagi akan dimasukkan di bawah RMKe-13,” ujar beliau.
Selain LMS, TLDM turut merancang perolehan 2 buah kapal Multi Role Support Ship (MRSS), 3 buah kapal Littoral Mission Ship Batch 3, 4 buah helikopter anti kapal selam dan 6 buah Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV).
“Proses perolehan bagi aset-aset baharu ini dijangka berlangsung sehingga 2030. Kesemua perolehan aset TLDM ini dianggarkan berjumlah RM10 – RM11 bilion bergantung kepada keadaan ekonomi semasa kerajaan,” katanya.

HASIL STUDI = BELANJA PERTAHANAN TERGANTUNG HUTANG
The results reveal a robust positive association between Public Debt and Defence Spending, substantiated by the significant coefficient of 0.7601 (p < 0.01). This suggests that an increase in Public Debt corresponds to a substantial rise in Defence Spending. Additionally, the study underscores the influence of Gross Domestic Saving and Exchange Rate on Defence Spending, with coefficients of 1.5996 (p < 0.01) and 0.4703 (p < 0.05), respectively. These findings contribute valuable insights into the fiscal dynamics of Malon's defence budget, shedding light on the interplay between Public Debt and strategic resource allocation. The incorporation of control variables enhances the robustness of the analysis, providing a nuanced understanding of the factors shaping defence spending in the Malonn context.
Some causes of issues with military logistics in Malonn include:
Hapus• Security threats: Malonn's military development and defense policy are influenced by security threats, which have changed from traditional to non-traditional.
• Budget: Budget constraints and uncertain timelines can impact the supply chain and collaboration with other international firms.
• Political intervention: Political intervention in spending can impact military logistics.
• Outdated equipment: Outdated equipment can impact military logistics.
• Privatization: Privatization of the logistics division can impact military logistics.
• Purchases: Purchases that are not based on real needs can impact military logistics.

LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
Large gaps in Malon’s military capability remain, however. These are largely the result of the small procurement budgets of the last quarter-century and ageing equipment inventory. The contracts announced at LIMA promise to increase Malon’s air power. But the air force’s most important shortcomings have been caused by the withdrawal from service of its Russia-supplied MiG-29 Fulcrum fighter aircraft in 2017 and the challenge of keeping its Su-30MKM Flanker fighter ground-attack aircraft, also of Russian origin, operational once existing stocks of spares run out. (Sanctions due to Russia’s war in Ukraine will prevent Malon from buying them directly from Moscow). In 2017, an earlier government suspended acquisition of a multi-role combat aircraft due to lack of funds. Subsequently, Malon expressed interest in buying second-hand F/A-18C/D Hornet fighters from Kuwait, but in March 2023, Minister of Defence Mohamad Hasan said the latter had not responded to enquiries.
Anwar spoke in June of his embarrassment over the age of the country’s naval assets. Malon’s Littoral Combat Ship programme has been plagued by delays and cost overruns, making only slow progress since an earlier government’s selection in 2011 of the French Gowind-class corvette as the basis for a Malonn-built warship class. In May 2023, the government injected additional funds into the local shipbuilder responsible for the programme while reducing the number of ships in the class from six to five, with deliveries scheduled for 2026–29. Meanwhile, Malon’s army has a longstanding requirement for self-propelled 155 millimetre artillery. In January 2023, however, the Anwar government cancelled the previous government’s order for Turkish-made Yavuz 155mm guns and said it would renegotiate the deal.
Equipment-modernisation challenges are not Malon’s only defence woes. The Malonn Armed Forces have difficulty recruiting and retaining sufficient high-calibre personnel, partly because of poor conditions of service. In June, Anwar remarked that he was ‘appalled’ by the condition of some military living quarters. But beyond immediate remedial measures, fixing defence infrastructure will probably not happen until 2024 at the earliest, as the government is currently prioritising the repair of dilapidated school buildings.
The government is also seeking to rebalance the ethnic composition of the armed forces. Indigenous Malonns (Bumiputeras) have long been significantly over represented, and ethnic Chinese Malonns have been under-represented. In April, Mohamad said that the defence ministry was implementing plans to attract more non-Bumiputeras to military service through online applications and nationwide roadshows.
The Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF) has faced several challenges, including:

The RMAF has had issues with maintenance and spare parts for its aircraft, including the Sukhoi Su-30MKM and the Kuwaiti Hornet.

RUSSIA SAYS = SU-30MKM MALONNN SUITS POOR QUALITY
RUSSIA SAYS = SU-30MKM MALONNN SUITS POOR QUALITY
RUSSIA SAYS = SU-30MKM MALONNN SUITS POOR QUALITY
Responding to Malonn's claims that Russia sold low-quality Su-30MKMs and poor aftermarket services, Russia explained that the technical error was with both Irkut and Malonn's aircraft. It is entirely up to the user to do the wrong thing.
In addition, due to lack of technical maintenance of the aircraft bought from Russia. Meanwhile, Kuala Lumpur has just ended a major overhaul with a contractor selected by former Prime Minister Najib Razak.
Thus, the reason for the disastrous Su-30MKM in Russia's RMAF is not satisfactory. For example, the Su-30SM of Kazakhstan, which does not have any complaints about the quality of its products, evaluates its reliable operation and meets all tactical requirements.
In addition to the operating method, the addition of foreigners to Russian aircraft, such as French sensors, display screens, or Israel's target indications, is also believed to be responsible. The phenomenon of system conflict.
Although it is unclear what the cause is, there is the fact that the RMAF currently has only four Su-30MKM out of a total of 18 such fighter jets capable of taking off and performing missions.
In order to escape this catastrophic situation, the Malonnn Air Force was forced to seek a domestic solution to maintain its combat readiness for the Su-30MKM fighter squadron. However, no feasible solution is available.

Originally, a total of 27 ships were planned, but due to programme delays and overruns, only six were eventually ordered. Their construction began in the early 2000s, and by 2009, all six were in active service. The six vessels are named after Malonn states

THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES FACED BY MAF
the issues and challenges faced by the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) in force modernization. MAF’s existing strategic plan and capability planning approaches was assessed initially. This was followed by validating capabilities-based approaches employed by other modern defence forces. Challenges and issues for MAF in adopting a similar approach are discussed. It was concluded that chief among these challenges was invigorating greater leadership in defence planning. Subsequently, the national security and defence policies must be aligned to provide clearer direction for the military strategy. Other challenges include the need to break old mind-sets vis-à-vis service rivalry. In a resource constrained environment, MAF’s force development has to be addressed through a more methodological approach in the form of CBP. Insights and best practices from around the world have to be adopted to avoid the debilitating pitfalls and obstacles
The country’s military development is a need to the country to ensure its viability. With the development of threat that not only traditional threat but it changes to the non-traditional threats. The security threat has influence the country’s military development and Defence Policy. It also implicates Malon which actively developing the military after the Cold War in 1991. Between 1957 to 1991, Malon has been focusing to the threat in the country specifically the communist threat that affects the country’s safety and sovereignty. After the peace treaty between PKM and Malonn government in 1989, Malon begins to actively developing the military. It is seen as a need for Malon to ensure the safety and defence of the country is in red alert to face any threat. However, in the rapid development of the military, there are some who see Malon is having problem to ensure the country’s readiness in facing the threat. With various negative issues being reported, it has raised question on the current status and the problem that Malon is facing in ensuring Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) readiness.

BUDGET 2025 = SALARIES AND ALLOWANCES
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
BUDGET 2025 = NOT ASSETS
PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
THE MALONN GOVERNMENT’S BUDGETING PROCESS STILL DOES NOT GIVE ITS ARMED FORCES A CLEAR VISION OF WHAT PROCUREMENT TO EXPECT, AND WHEN.
HapusIn contrast to its neighbours in South East Asia, progress in Malon’s defence has been limited since 2018 due to a combination of various factors. The main factor has always been fiscal limitation with successive Malonn governments unwilling to fund defence by cutting government spending elsewhere or reducing the size of the armed forces by reducing manpower and equipment.
The 2024 defence budget allocated $4.16 billion (RM19.73 billion) for defence, but the allocation for salaries and allowances for 2024 amounted to $1.7 billion (RM8.2 billion), which is slightly over 40 percent of the total defence budget. In contrast the allocation for procurement amounted to $1.2 billion (RM5.71 billion), a slight increase from 2023’s allocation of $1.06 billion (RM5.04 billion). However, given the depreciation of the ringgit and the fact that Malon sources much of its equipment from overseas, and domestic manufacture is also significantly dependent on foreign OEMs, there may not actually be a real gain in procurement funding with the increase merely compensating for the ringgit’s depreciation.
It also includes funding for intended single year procurements in that particular year as well, such as for small arms, communication equipment, small quantities of specialised vehicles or support vehicles and so on. Funding for large ticket items or programmes that require multi-year payments are usually assessed by the finance ministry. This is then subject to cabinet approval as to whether the country can afford to fund the programme with the money then set aside but not included in the annual budget for the year. It is only allocated once a formal procurement contract has been signed and then placed into the fiscal year budgets of the years that progressive payments are to be made.
Therefore it is difficult to actually assess how much is available for defence procurement in a given year as the funding availability for defence procurement programmes and requirements are assessed behind closed doors by the Finance Ministry on a case by case basis. Once done this is then sent for approval with the Prime Minister and his cabinet having the final say on a large ticket procurement, and any outcome only known if the government decides to announce it rather than being published in official publicly accessible documents. For example on 15 March this year, Malonn Defence Minister Khaled Nordin announced on his social media account on X that the Royal Malonn Air Force (RMAF), for this year, had been allocated $232 million (RM1.13 billon) to carry out all its programmes such as procurement, supply, replacement and upgrades of assets and national airspace equipment. “This amount does not include the phase 1 procurement for the RMAF of 12 new helicopters of which $590 million (RM2.8 billon) had been approved this year with delivery of the helicopters scheduled in 2028”, posted Khaled
Another factor that has also hindered Malon’s defence development has been the frequent change of governments since 2018 which since that year has seen Malon go through four Prime Ministers and governments before a general election at the end of 2022 bought about the present administration. The current political opposition has even talked of ousting the present government via defections of Members of Parliament (MPs) and political parties from the ruling coalition. Coupled with the need to revitalised a slow economy, the government is still grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and an overall need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit giving it more than enough priorities to focus on outside of defence. It has approved and funded some programmes that had been initiated by past governments and is going through the process of approving a few other programmes
Malon's military faces a number of challenges, including:
Hapus• Budgetary constraints
Malonn governments have been unwilling to fund the military by reducing government spending or the size of the armed forces.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the Malonn military's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and the 1990s, and is now considered outdated.
• Lack of authority
The armed forces are generally given a limited role in dealing with non-traditional security threats, and are often called upon to assist other authorities.
• Tension between the public and the military
There is a tension between the public's right to know and the military's need-to-know policies.
• Socio-economic class divisions
There are socio-economic class divisions within the military, with enlisted personnel generally coming from lower socio-economic backgrounds, and officers coming from middle and upper middle classes.
• Corruption
The military has been involved in a number of corruption scandals.
Other challenges include:
• Lack of standard operating procedures
• The need to adapt to the rapid development of ICT and its impact on military technology
• The need to consider the regional strategic environment
==========
Malonn's defense budget is considered not in accordance with its objectives. Some of the things to consider are:
• The allocation of salaries and allowances for 2024 reaches 40% of the total defense budget.
• The allocation for procurement has increased slightly from 2023, but there may be no real benefit due to the depreciation of the ringgit.
• The Ministry of Finance assesses the availability of funds for programs and procurement requirements in private.
• Hundreds of Malonnn military assets have exceeded the 30-year service limit.
==========
Malonn has faced several crises, including political, financial, and economic crises:
• Political crisis
From 2020–2022, Malonn experienced a political crisis that led to the resignation of two Prime Ministers and the collapse of two coalition governments. The crisis was caused by political infighting, party switching, and the refusal of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad to transition power to Anwar Ibrahim. The crisis ended in 2022 with a snap general election and the formation of a coalition government.
• Financial crisis
Malonn experienced a financial crisis when the country's economic fundamentals appeared strong, but the crisis came suddenly. The government's initial response was to increase interest rates and tighten fiscal policy, but this was not enough to correct the external imbalances.
• Economic crisis
Malonn's economy has faced challenges due to weak global demand and a dependence on exports. In 2020, Malonn's economy shrank by the most since the Asian crisis. In 2023, weak global demand for electronics and a decline in energy prices weighed on the economy.
• Household debt crisis
As of the end of 2023, Malonn's household debt-to-GDP ratio was 84.2%, with household debt reaching RM1.53 trillion
• Malonn has faced several rice crises in the past, including in 1973–1975, the 1980s, 1997–1998, 2008, and 2023. These crises are often caused by price hikes, which are driven by supply and demand, as well as market player behavior

==========
Malonn has several issues related to assault rifles, including:
• Smuggling
Malonn's long and porous borders make it difficult to stop the smuggling of firearms and ammunition into the country. The border between Malonn and Thailand is particularly vulnerable to gun smuggling.
• Outdated inventory
The Malonnn Armed Forces (MAF) has outdated inventory stock, which can be a stumbling block for ongoing operations.
• Wary of Russian-made weapons
Malonn is becoming wary of its Russian-made weapons

LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
LARGE GAPS MILITARY CAPABILITY
Large gaps in Malon’s military capability remain, however. These are largely the result of the small procurement budgets of the last quarter-century and ageing equipment inventory. The contracts announced at LIMA promise to increase Malon’s air power. But the air force’s most important shortcomings have been caused by the withdrawal from service of its Russia-supplied MiG-29 Fulcrum fighter aircraft in 2017 and the challenge of keeping its Su-30MKM Flanker fighter ground-attack aircraft, also of Russian origin, operational once existing stocks of spares run out. (Sanctions due to Russia’s war in Ukraine will prevent Malon from buying them directly from Moscow). In 2017, an earlier government suspended acquisition of a multi-role combat aircraft due to lack of funds. Subsequently, Malon expressed interest in buying second-hand F/A-18C/D Hornet fighters from Kuwait, but in March 2023, Minister of Defence Mohamad Hasan said the latter had not responded to enquiries.
Anwar spoke in June of his embarrassment over the age of the country’s naval assets. Malon’s Littoral Combat Ship programme has been plagued by delays and cost overruns, making only slow progress since an earlier government’s selection in 2011 of the French Gowind-class corvette as the basis for a Malonn-built warship class. In May 2023, the government injected additional funds into the local shipbuilder responsible for the programme while reducing the number of ships in the class from six to five, with deliveries scheduled for 2026–29. Meanwhile, Malon’s army has a longstanding requirement for self-propelled 155 millimetre artillery. In January 2023, however, the Anwar government cancelled the previous government’s order for Turkish-made Yavuz 155mm guns and said it would renegotiate the deal.
Equipment-modernisation challenges are not Malon’s only defence woes. The Malonn Armed Forces have difficulty recruiting and retaining sufficient high-calibre personnel, partly because of poor conditions of service. In June, Anwar remarked that he was ‘appalled’ by the condition of some military living quarters. But beyond immediate remedial measures, fixing defence infrastructure will probably not happen until 2024 at the earliest, as the government is currently prioritising the repair of dilapidated school buildings.
The government is also seeking to rebalance the ethnic composition of the armed forces. Indigenous Malonns (Bumiputeras) have long been significantly over represented, and ethnic Chinese Malonns have been under-represented. In April, Mohamad said that the defence ministry was implementing plans to attract more non-Bumiputeras to military service through online applications and nationwide roadshows.

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

The Royal Malonnn Air Force (RMAF) faces several problems, including:
• Fleet sustainment
The RMAF has faced challenges maintaining its fleet of aircraft. For example, in 2018, only four of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM aircraft were able to fly due to maintenance issues and a lack of spare parts.
• Technological obsolescence
Some aircraft in the RMAF's fleet are reaching technological obsolescence. For example, the Kuwaiti Hornets are an earlier block of the Hornet, which may cause compatibility issues with spare parts.
• Modernization
The RMAF has ambitious plans to modernize its air capabilities to address current and future threats. However, the government's defense modernization budget is limited.

The Royal Malonn Navy (RMN) faces several challenges, including:
• Aging fleet: More than half of the RMN's fleet is past its prime, and the country has only received four of the 18 new vessels it planned to acquire. The last time the RMN acquired a combat ship was in 1997.
• Delayed replacements: The RMN's plans to replace its aging fleet have been stalled due to mismanagement.
• Insufficient defense budget: Malon's defense budget is less than one percent of its GDP, while neighboring Singapore spends six percent.
• Lack of coordination: There is a lack of coordination among agencies.
• Outdated assets: The RMN's ships and assets are outdated.
• Combat system issues: The RMN has observed deficiencies with the combat system of its LMS type vessels.
• Low endurance: The LCS's endurance was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Lack of air and surface warfare capabilities: The LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities
============
Some factors that contribute to the Malonn Army's perceived weakness include:
• Political instability: Frequent government changes since 2018 have made it difficult for the Malonn Armed Forces (MAF) to receive the support it needs.
• Corruption: The MAF has been plagued by corruption.
• Poor planning: The MAF has been criticized for poor planning.
• Political interference: Political leaders have interfered in the MAF's procurement process.
• Outdated equipment: Much of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s, and the government has been unable to provide modern equipment.
Lack of military knowledge: Military personnel have struggled with decision-making and problem-solving during military operations
============
Malonn's economy has faced a number of challenges, including:
• Global slowdown: Slower global trade, geopolitical tensions, and tighter monetary policies have contributed to Malonn's economic decline.
• Weakening global demand: A decline in demand from developed countries, such as the US, EU, and Japan, has negatively impacted Malonn's exports.
• Slowdown in China: A slowdown in Malonn's main trading partner, China, has also contributed to the economic downturn.
• High government debt: Malonn has high levels of household and corporate debt, as well as insufficient tax revenue.
• High dependency on food imports: Malonn imports 60% of the food it consumes.
• Erosion of price competitiveness: Increasing labor costs have eroded Malonn's price competitiveness.
Inflation concerns: The war in Ukraine has affected food prices, which are a significant import for Malonn

The procurement division of the Defence Ministry has issued a tender for the supply, delivery, and commissioning for eight Very Short-Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) ground-based air defence system for the Army. The VSHORAD system is listed as the Army’s main asset and equipment for 2024.
The 23-day tender published on November 20 closes on December 19. As usual the public specifications for the tender are limited.
The indicative cost for the eight VSHORAD system is RM150 million. It is therefore unclear whether the VSHORAD system is meant for the four Starstreak carrier vehicles or Kenderaan Pembawa Misil Starstreak (KPMS) which tender was published last August.
It may well be that the Starstreak LML NG VSHORAD SAM being sought are for the KPMS. And if it’s meant to be for the KPMS it may well be the setting up of a GBAD unit for 1 Division which is based in Kuching, Sarawak. The Fifth Division based in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah has a single GBAD unit, 35 RAD (Ad-hoc) which got its Starstreak KPMS, missiles, and launchers from the disbanded RMN GBAD unit.
The other Starstreak unit is 32 RAD which is based at the Terendak camp in Malacca. It is also interesting to note that the 361 Battery of RAD – the GBAD unit- with 10th Para Brigade are still equipped with the Anza Mk2 VSHORAD system procured some 20 years ago. The Thales Starstreak missiles, launchers, vehicles, and a single radar system were procured in 2015.

PMX DS Anwar Ibrahim today announce an allocation of RM40.6 billion for the national security sector from the RM461 billion 2025 national budget. This is an increase of RM2 billion for the sector which includes Home and Defence ministries, from the 2024 budget of RM38.7 billion.
Defence got RM21.1 billion allocation, an increase of RM1.4 billion from last year, while Home will get RM19.5 billion, an increase of some RM500 million. Others have made the calculations that the Defence’s stake of the budget is 1.2 per cent of the Malonn GDP. That said most of the allocation is for salaries and other stuff and not assets.
Operational Expenditure for Defence in 2025 is RM13.363 billion while Development Expenditure is RM7.492 billion. The OE allocation is an increase of some RM1 billion while the increase in DE is around RM450 million. The highest increase in OE is for the emolument (salaries and allowances) which amounted to RM8.773 billion. It is interesting to note that the increase in DE is for services and supply (RM1.906 billion) while asset procurement is down to RM5.585 billion, down by some RM250 million from last year.
From the DE, the Army will be getting RM1.197 billion, of which RM218 million is for construction of new facilities and RM980 million is for assets. RMN is getting RM2.25 billion, RM150 million (facilities) and RM2.1 billion, assets. RM2.3 billion is for RMAF, RM65 million for facilities and RM2.2 billion for assets. For the three services, RM663 million is allocated.
Meanwhile, funding for staging LIMA 2025, RM30 million is allocated under the OE. The ministry is also getting a one-off allocation of RM50 million for the Asean 2025 chairmanship (as with the Home Ministry but RM15 million) and another allocation of RM50 million for the National Service Programme (PLKN).
The bulk of the extra funding for OE in 2025, I believed, is due to the adjustment of the salary and allowances (including payments to veterans who did not receive pensions, those who opt out of service before 21 years, mostly Defence) for both ministries. The adjustment for Home is RM605 million while for Defence it is RM449 million. Hence the higher percentage to the GDP is an illusion of course.

Malonn has agreed in principle to purchase medium-range missiles from China, which in return will transfer technology on very short-range air defence to the country, Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak said Tuesday.
The procurement of the surface-to-air missiles was part of the armed forces modernisation program and would be made under the Ninth Malonn Plan from 2006-2009, he was quoted as saying by Bernama news agency.
"Details of the procurement and offset programme will be finalised later should Malonn give its full commitment," he said after the signing of a memorandum of understanding on the purchase. The cost of the weapons were not revealed.
Under the pact between China National Precision Machinery Import and Export Corp. and two local companies, CNPMIEC would transfer technology on production of the FN-6 shoulder-launched missiles to Malonn if it purchases its medium-range KS-1A missiles, Bernama said.
This includes provisions for special test facilities, tools, manufacturing process document, training and technical support.
CNPMIEC president Wang Bingyan said China had also offered to conclude the KS-1A transaction on flexible payment terms, including counter-trade, barter and deferred payments.
