    Indonesia Casual Discussion Warkop Indonesia

    If I would be a diplomat then my answer to you would have been; sorry but I really don't know anything personal about it, but I can forward Beijing's official position to you. However it was you you placed the question as to the logic of the Uighur situation - and I gave you a precise account as...

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    I don't want to unnecessarily hack, or smart-talk onto your post - but air cavalry or Stuka's do not provide air-superiority. As for Blitzkrieg or e.g. Operation Desert-Storm the fighters, cruise-missiles/missiles and bombers take out the air-defense and and the adversaries air-force. Preferably...

    Indonesia Casual Discussion Warkop Indonesia

    No, unfortunately there are a lot who simply don't work because they have no qualification to find work (hence the vocational training centers) and there are some that simply do not want to work. I have spend many years in e.g. Malaysia - the same issue applies there. Many especially young...

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    You forgot about air support - no air support (respectively air-superiority) NO Blitzkrieg. This is actually Russia's present problem and has been since the 70's.

    Indonesia Casual Discussion Warkop Indonesia

    If these 200,000 Uighur's are imprisoned because they repeatedly broke the law - then they are sentenced criminals. I never hear of any country being accused of "discrimination" because of sending criminals to prison. Just because these specific criminals happen to be Muslims - doesn't exclude...

    Indonesia Casual Discussion Warkop Indonesia

    Oh boy - from what I know and have seen in e.g. Xinjiang it seems to be the following logic. In general all so called minorities in China enjoy great freedom and support by Beijing - this goes as far as to exclude them from many general laws that apply towards Han Chinese. E.g. 1 child policy -...

    Singapore, a military power in South-East Asia built on the Israeli model

    Not to forget - despite being kind of a political rival - the great influence Singapore's first Minister David Saul Marshall had in this matter.

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    As i stated earlier on: it is Indonesia's decision if they want to stay neutral or join an alliance Independent of this issue - the question still remains as to how the Indonesian Armed Forces intend to transport heavy stuff to a respective hot/war zone. (especially in a scenario which beholds a...

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    Artillery is certainly important - but one needs an effective artillery for a designed specified purpose/objective. Please see my reply to FPX ALLEN. Japan, Korea and Australia are partners with the USA - for the Asian partners North-Korea is the actual concern not the defense of Japanese or...

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    A White Book actually never states or names a potential enemy - but simply forces and its branches equipment that could pose a threat. E.g. PLA, PLAF, PLAN, USN. USAF etc. basically the same reference but diplomatically a huge difference towards stating e.g. China or USA. Unlike Germany or most...

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    The reason for my asking: A White-book outlines the anticipated threats towards outside enemies or countries constituting a potential threat to the security of e.g. Indonesia. It does not reflect upon internal issues (normally). As such a long term planing ensues in regards to purchasing weapon...

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    Okay, but that still would beg the question as to against or towards whom Indonesia needs to defend it's freedom via heavy artillery? IMO certainly not towards internal security.

    China Claims of China's incursions into Taiwan's AIDZ

    Especially due to Taiwan's present regional government and it's attempts towards independence - accusations towards China violating Taiwan's territorial airspace and AIDZ have increased rapidly in the past 2 years. With the USA and it's allies or "friends" trying to highlight a Chinese...

    Well in that case or scenario, the Indonesian Police forces should suffice. :D

    Ukraine Analysis Why Russia will lose this war

    As long as Putin is alive or replaced by a same mindset and character - there is no way for Russia to lose this war. If they are able to sustain or enjoy their "victory" or territorial gains - economically and politically would be another issue.

    Indonesia Indonesian Army,Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD)

    Without wanting to raise a hornets nest, please allow me the following question. Who is it that Indonesia needs e.g. heavy artillery for? To attack or defend against e.g. Malaysia, Singapore or the Philippines? In that context; Is any of you military enthusiasts or maybe service members...

    Is Taiwan Next?

    China isn't preparing to attack Taiwan at all. (They are the same people). China will do whatever it takes to oppose independence plans by certain Taiwanese politicians and outside politicians instigating in this matter. China's main focus is to ward of US interests and political aims within...

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    In a Forum NO ONE should need to hide his opinion - (unless off course a Forum leadership is clearly politically oriented towards a specific goal or agenda) and an opinion based on a military map and paying attention towards present military facts, is (at least to me) no indication towards...

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    I rather think not - once this Ukraine issue is finished It has always been nukes, since even during the Cold-war, the Soviet-Union was always outclassed by NATO Fully agree

    It's a combination of government funds and having a market to sell such weapons Most of Europa's modern weapon developing capable countries have severe restriction in regards to export - e.g. Sweden and Germany. Which leaves only France and the UK. The latter two depend mainly on exports to...
