No lah, MoD is doing independent decision.
but the Mirage decision could be the result of MoF rigid policy on 15% RMP (for total Rafale contract of 42 airframes). To compensate the uncertainty of Rafale contract, MoD then looks into alternative of ready to use yet affordable airframes.
so MoF...
$125 billion loan for 25 years payment ($5 billion per year) is peanut bro 😅
Indonesia new loan is $75 billion per-year. So defense sector got merely 6% of our total loan annually (if approved).
And for that $5 billion loan payment, mostly will come from Kemenhan own budget. So Kemenkeu has...
Maybe the Mirage deal will tell us something. UAE and Qatar represent different interest, which 08 is trying to accomodate both.
As for SMI, I’m just guessing that Kemenkeu will approve if there’s RMP for the project. We all understand that the RMP is only availablr for 6 unit (not yet...
I’m specifically pointing on the corruption in government loans arrangement. The amount of past era kickback combined is nothing compared to the merciless robbery in this administration. You have no idea 😁
simply because now every new loan is coming from the market, and every government...
Had she approved it, we will witness a larger contract signing for French stuffs.
“France is trying to get Abu Dhabi to finance Jakarta's procurement of Rafale while the Indonesian government has turned to the more US-friendly Doha…”...
Jokowi era has been a partying time for financial robbers.
Notice that now almost all foreigh loans are coming from the market (with excessive market rates). G2G loan almost non existent anymore, eventhough it has cosiderably lower interest rates and more flexible terms. France govt for once...
International lenders and bankers gave kickback to oknum in Lap Banteng is an open secret. That’s why we keep getting higher interest rates for foreign loans, which some chunk of the interest rates will be allocated for kickbacks to the oknums.
When 08 brought UAE, Qatari and Japanese lenders...
Kemenkeu is forcing the RMP (Rupiah Murni Pendamping) to be implemented on Prabowo’s $125 billion procurement plan. Which is ridiculuous cause they (Kemenkeu) don’t have the money (for the RMP) while the lenders are ready to offer DP nol persen (no downpayment needed) with very low interest...
I bet China will leapfrog Natuna. It’s more strategic for invader from the north to hold Batam, Pontianak, Medan, Balikpapan and Palembang. And by holding those areas, Natuna supply lines will be automatically cut off.
This program won’t be financially viable for BUMN. Unless the govt injects huge CAPEX to build cassava downstream industries (ie ethanol, mocaf, tapioca, ethilene, etc).
The food security doctrine of Kemhan is different to Kementan (or other civilian institution). The main thing to be secured is the ‘production process’, in which the production area need to be protected as well as the production factors (ie human resource and equipment) from being captured by...
For me the best news was that satellite deal with France. It is the brain for every hardware that we will operate.
Our military satellite will be the the true game changer for our capability on EW and network centric warfare.
i’m surprised no one talk about it.
1. China sends spies too, human spies and tech spies.
2. China claims and intends to occuppy south china sea including natuna.
3. Whats your point? I’m talking about strategy of using Turkish drones for point aerial attack, in which that strategy won’t be effective as per lesson from history...
