    1 PENA KETUA PENGARANG “Selaku penyambung warisan, harus memainkan karakter sebagai pembela nusa dan bangsa dengan terus berjuang, terus bekorban dan terus berusaha mengekalkan apa yang dikecapi kini” lhamdulillah merafak kesyukuran kepada Yang Maha Esa di atas nikmat kesihatan yang baik seraya rezeki yang dilimpah- Akan kepada kita dalam menongkah arus perjalanan kehidupan dalam mencari keredhaanNya. Sebagaimana telah kita sedia maklum, dalam tempoh ini pelbagai hari peristiwa yang mencalit tentang pergorbanan telah kita raikan seperti Hari Raya Aidil Adha, Hari Kemerdekaan, Hari Pahlawan, Hari Penubuhan Malaysia dan tidak dilupakan juga Hari Angkatan Tentera Malaysia. Hatta, bersempena dengan peristiwa-peristiwa tersebut, terpalit diri untuk menyampaikan serta memperingatkan akan semangat perjuangan yang harus terus dipupuk dalam jiwa selaku warganegara juga sebagai anggota badan beruniform. Keamanan dan keharmonian yang dikecapi kini umum diketahui adalah hasil keperihan dan pengorbanan insan-insan terdahulu, selayaknya digelar pejuang, bermati-matian dalam usaha untuk mengembalikan kedaulatan Tanah Melayu pada suatu ketika dahulu. Semangat kepahlawanan serta keberanian jelas terpampang di setiap bait tuturcara, tingkah laku serta pemikiran setiap individu dengan tujuan yang satu iaitu demi mengembalikan senyuman serta gelak tawa pada generasi mendatang. Oleh hal yang sedemikian, pengorbanan pejuang-pejuang ter- dahulu janganlah dipersia begitu sahaja. Usai sudah peranan mer- eka dan kini kita selaku penyambung warisan, harus memainkan karakter sebagai pembela nusa dan bangsa dengan terus berjuang, terus bekorban dan terus berusaha mengekalkan apa yang dikecapi kini. Benar, ada mungkin kita tidak punyai kekentalan seumpama Lt Adnan, tidak punyai keberanian seumpama Kapt Hassan serta tidak segagah pejuang-pejuang lagenda pada masa dahulu. Namun, tidak mustahil untuk kita miliki semua itu sekiranya semangat pengor- banan telah kita pupuk dan pujuk dalam jiwa ini dari masa ke semasa.

  • Extremism and Terrorism
    Malaysia: Extremism and Terrorism On May 17, 2021, Malaysian police carried out a raid on suspected Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) members in Sabah, on the Malaysian portion of Borneo. A shootout ensued that left five militants dead, including Mabar Binda, an ASG sub-commander on the Philippine government’s wanted list. Earlier on May 8, Malaysian authorities arrested eight suspected ASG militants in Sabah. Philippine military officials said they provided information that helped lead to the arrests. According to Philippine marine brigade commander Col. Hernanie Songano, the members of the Philippine-based terrorist group were planning to use Sabah as a hub for kidnap-for-ransom activities and to facilitate the travel of foreign fighters to the southern Philippines. A Malaysian police commissioner, however, claimed that the ASG detainees were not engaged in kidnap-for-ransom when they were captured, but were in hiding after escaping a military operation in the southern Philippines. Among the arrested was a sub-leader of the Sulu-based faction of ASG, Sansibar Bensio, who was allegedly previously involved in deadly clashes with the Philippine military and the kidnap of foreign citizens. Philippine authorities had initially claimed that Binda was among those arrested, but the Sabah police commissioner later clarified that he and several others had escaped the arrest operation. (Sources: Reuters, Bernama, Associated Press, Rappler) On November 20, 2019, Malaysian authorities released Yazid Sufaat from the Simpang Renggam penitentiary in Johor and sent him to his home near Kuala Lumpur. Sufaat, a U.S.-educated biochemist, has served a string of jail sentences for his involvement with both ISIS and al-Qaeda.

  • Malaysia-China Defence Relations: Disruptions Amid Political Changes and Geopolitical Tensions
    ISSUE: 2021 No. 57 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 29 April 2021 Malaysia-China Defence Relations: Disruptions Amid Political Changes and Geopolitical Tensions Ngeow Chow Bing* While domestic changes in Malaysia largely accounted for the slowing down of Malaysia-China defence interactions, China’s actions in the South China Sea dispute contributed to the reduced enthusiasm and increased scepticism among the defence establishment on the efficacy of developing defence relations with China. In this picture, the Malaysian (left) and Chinese (right) Defence Ministers. Photos: Sophie ds15 for Defense Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob (left) and James N. Mattis for Defence Minister Wei Fenghe (right) via Wikimedia Commons. * Ngeow Chow Bing is Director of the Institute of China Studies at the University of Malaya. 1 ISSUE: 2021 No. 57 ISSN 2335-6677 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • Malaysia’s defence relations with China improved steadily in the early 1990s and especially since the 2005 MOU on Bilateral Defence Cooperation was signed. • Under Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak, Malaysia’s defence cooperation with China reached its height in 2017, with many top-level exchanges, large-scale bilateral exercises, a breakthrough in defence industry cooperation, growing naval visits, and continued military academic exchanges. These activities were overseen by Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein. • With the change of government in Malaysia in 2018, Malaysia-China defence ties cooled. However, a bilateral combined military exercise took place and the contract to procure Littoral Mission Ships from China continued with modifications. • The sudden change of government in Malaysia in 2020 and the pandemic further disrupted the momentum.
