PT PAL's welder at Naval Group in Cherbourg, France (photo: Naval Group)Weld it until you make it.
As part of the ambitious Transfer of Skills to build 2 ScorpΓ¨ne submarines for the TNI Angkatan Laut at PT PAL Indonesia’s shipyard in Surabaya, we welcome our Indonesian partners in Cherbourg to begin an extensive training.
Welding is a demanding trade, yet we are fully committed to this first step in supporting Indonesia build up its industrial sovereignty and economy.
π What Is the ECRL?
BalasHapus• Initially launched in 2016 under Malondesh’s previous government as part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).
• Constructed by China Communications Construction Company (CCCC), with financing largely from Export-Import Bank of China.
π° Debt and Financial Concerns
• The original cost was RM65.5 billion (approx. US$20 billion), with RM500 million in annual interest alone.
• Critics feared Malondesh could fall into a “debt trap”, where repayment obligations would strain national finances.
• In 2018–2019, Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad suspended and renegotiated the project, citing:
o Excessive cost
o Unfavorable loan terms
o Lack of transparency in contracts2
π Cancellation and Renegotiation
• Mahathir announced the temporary cancellation of ECRL and two gas pipeline projects during a visit to Beijing in 20183.
• He emphasized that Malondesh couldn’t afford the projects at the time and sought to reduce national debt, which had ballooned to RM1 trillion (approx. US$250 billion).
• China reportedly understood Malondesh’s position, and negotiations continued to revise the scope and cost.
✅ Revised Project Status
• The project was revived in 2019 with a reduced cost of RM44 billion, and a shortened route to cut expenses.
• Construction resumed, with completion now targeted for December 2026, and operations expected to begin in January 2027.
• Malondesh also launched Economic Accelerator Projects (EAPs) alongside ECRL to boost local benefits, such as industrial parks and logistics hubs.
π²πΎ Strategic Implications
• The ECRL remains one of the largest BRI projects outside China.
πECRL = BRI CHINA = DEBT AND FINANCIAL CONCERNS CHINAπ
π Case Study 1: East Coast Rail Link (ECRL)
BalasHapus• Originally valued at RM65.5 billion (US$20 billion), funded by Export-Import Bank of China.
• Suspended in 2018 due to cost concerns and renegotiated in 2019 to RM44 billion.
• Although the loan terms were softened, Malondesh still bears long-term repayment obligations, with interest payments exceeding RM500 million annually.
Critics feared a debt trap, but Malondesh retained control over the project and renegotiated terms to reduce strategic risk
𧨠Case Study 2: 1MDB Scandal and Chinese Bailout Allegations
• 1Malondesh Development Berhad (1MDB) was a state investment fund launched in 2009.
• It became the center of a global corruption scandal, with over US$4.5 billion allegedly misappropriated.
• Investigative reports and whistleblower accounts suggest that Chinese state-linked firms were involved in inflated contracts and backdoor bailouts to cover 1MDB’s debts.
• Example: Two pipeline projects worth RM9.4 billion were paid upfront, but only 13% of the work was completed—raising suspicions that the funds were diverted to settle 1MDB obligations..
π️ Other BRI Projects with Financial Exposure
Project Estimated Value Issues Raised
Melaka Gateway Port RM43 billion Suspended; concerns over transparency
Kuantan Industrial Park RM3.5 billion Joint venture; strategic location
Pipeline Projects RM9.4 billion Linked to 1MDB bailout allegations

πͺ ARMY GAPS — VULNERABLE TO MODERN COMBINED-ARMS WARFARE
BalasHapusMalondesh’s Current Situation
• Armored Vehicles
o Still operates Condor APCs (1980s).
o New AV8 Gempita (Turkish FNSS partnership) in service, but deliveries are slow and numbers limited.
• Artillery & Firepower
o Mix of old towed artillery and a few self-propelled systems.
o No modern Multiple Launch Rocket Systems (MLRS) compared to neighbors.
• Air Defense
o Extremely weak: relies mainly on MANPADS (Igla, Starstreak) for short-range defense.
o No medium or long-range SAMs, leaving Malondeshn forces and infrastructure vulnerable to modern air strikes.
• Infantry
o Professional and experienced (notably in counterinsurgency), but under-equipped for high-intensity, modern warfare.
Regional Comparison
• Singapore: Strong mechanized force, Leopard 2 tanks, advanced artillery (PzH2000), Iron Dome-derived air defense.
• Indonesia: Expanding heavy armor, artillery, and air defense systems (NASAMS, S-300, etc.).
• Thailand: Upgrading tanks and artillery with Chinese and Ukrainian systems.
Implications
• In a high-intensity war, Malondeshn Army units would struggle against modern mechanized forces.
• Lack of air defense means Malondesh cannot protect key bases, cities, or troops from airstrikes or drones.
• Malondesh risks being confined to low-intensity operations (counterinsurgency, peacekeeping), while lacking credibility in regional conflicts.
π’ NAVAL WEAKNESS — STRUGGLES TO PROTECT ITS EEZ FROM CHINA
BalasHapusMalondesh’s Current Situation
• Fleet Composition
o 2 Lekiu-class frigates (1990s).
o 2 Kasturi-class corvettes (1980s).
o 2 Scorpène-class submarines (delivered 2009, but high maintenance costs).
o Several patrol vessels, many aging and under-armed.
• Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) Program
o Planned 6 modern Gowind-class ships.
o As of 2025: 0 delivered, due to scandal and delays.
• Maritime Domain Awareness
o Limited long-range radar coverage and maritime patrol aircraft.
Threats in EEZ
• South China Sea (SCS):
o China regularly sends coast guard and naval vessels into Malondesh’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), especially around Luconia Shoals and James Shoal.
o Chinese vessels are larger, more heavily armed, and often operate in groups.
• Strait of Malacca:
o World’s busiest sea lane.
o Piracy, smuggling, and illegal fishing require constant patrols.
Regional Comparison
• Singapore: Has modern Formidable-class frigates, Independence-class littoral ships, submarines, and a strong modernization pace.
• Indonesia: Expanding its navy with new frigates and submarines (Nagapasa-class).
• Thailand: Operates Chinese-built frigates and even purchased a Yuan-class submarine (yet to be delivered).
Implications
• Malondesh cannot effectively patrol its EEZ or deter Chinese incursions.
• Without the LCS, the RMN lacks modern surface combatants.
• Risk: Malondesh becomes the weak link in the South China Sea dispute, dependent on diplomacy and allies instead of naval power
