Don't underestimate AMX-13 in jungle environment, particularly after receiving upgrade. It may not be as flashy as Harimau but it will get the job done.

20 years... thats basically the estimated time that global warming rears its ugly head in Asia.

I've read reports that major rivers that run through China, and the Mekong river that runs through Indochina will probably dry up in 20 years. In that case, a lot of people are going to go hungry. Good God, if even people in the government believe that the next 20 years the region will become heated, this is going to be worrying.

Jakarta (ANTARA) - Indonesian presidential candidate number 01 Joko Widodo (Jokowi) stated in the fourth round of the 2019 presidential debate that he still strongly believes in the capability of Indonesian Armed Forces (TNI) in defending the country's territorial sovereignty.

"Once again I still strongly believe in our TNI in defending Indonesia's sovereignty, I still strongly believe," Jokowi said during the fourth presidential candidate debate at Shangri-La Hotel here on Saturday evening.

The fourth presidential debate focused on the issues pertaining to Ideology, Governance, Defense and Security, as well as International Relations.

Responding to his contender Prabowo Subianto's critical question on budget constraints of the national defense, Jokowi admitted that his administration has currently given more priority to the national infrastructure development.

"At a time when our economic growth is getting better, the global economy revives, we will be able to provide more for our military budget in order to build better defense equipment in the future," he stated.

He also admitted that Indonesia's defense budget was smaller than those of many other countries.

"Our defense budget is indeed small compared to those of many other countries. However, I still believe in strategic intelligence information that I received stating that in the next 20 years, there will be no foreign invasion," Jokowi remarked.

Jokowi also argued that Indonesia, in the near future, has to be more focused on dealing with internal security challenges, particularly conflicts.

20 th gak ada invasi gan,

It is not that our defence budget is small. Rather because we have so much soldier to fed . Im all for decreasing the manpower of the army to increase fund for the air force and navy

400.000+ is not enough for you?

400.000+ is not enough for you?

Its quite adequate, i think. There is no need to reduce in size as a whole. But need adjustment as Army territorial unit need to be reduced to let combat capable units to be increased and Navy and Airforce to grow

 

[mandala]

Hm, good to know.

400.000+ is not enough for you?

I mean, depends on how we look at it. Compared to the equipments available, I guess we are doing all we can. But compared to the sheer population and the country's size....
