your arrogance amazes me. Indonesia only needs a good antiship missile to stop your big mouth.

And that was the guy you consider as a "friend"

Lesson to be learned, no chinaman is your friend

Really? You want to go racist with us? Think hard, is that really the route you want to go?


As to friends, that's between equals, in no way is Vietnam a equal of China, be it in total numbers or on an individual bases. You are not one of those countries that can say they got higher per capita, but lower total. You just suck from every angle.

IF you live in the US/Canada, you would know, while Americans, call UK, Canada, Europe "friends," most Americans including the government expects the Europeans just shut up and do what its told. Especially Canada, gets no respect, but then again, same is true for Europe in US.

Presidential airplane arrives
Indonesia's new $91 million presidential plane arrived Thursday
The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | National | Thu, April 10 2014, 6:50 PM

The Boeing Business Jet 2 (BBJ) presidential aircraft arrived at Halim Perdanakusuma Air Force Base Thursday.

State Secretary Sudi Silalahi said the country’s first ever presidential airplane would save state funds and become a symbol of national pride.

“We can save more by no longer using commercial aircraft,” Sudi said, as quoted by Antara news agency, during a ceremony to receive the new aircraft at Halim Perdanakusuma.

Sudi said the government had calculated that the airplane would save Rp 114.2 billion (US$10.04 million) a year. Previously, the government chartered an aircraft from flag carrier Garuda Indonesia.

“Previously, the airline had to reschedule its flights whenever the president needed an airplane,” Sudi said.

He said Indonesia would be proud of the special airplane, which was sophisticated, modern, secure and ready to serve the president and his constitutional duties.

The presidential airplane cost around Rp 820 billion and was manufactured in 2013. It is 38 meters long, 12.5 meters high and a wingspan of 35.79 meters.

The BBJ 2 can fly at a maximum elevation of 41,000 feet above sea level and fly for a maximum of 10 hours with a maximum range of 4,629 nautical miles, or 8,556 kilometers. Its top speed is 0.85 Mach.

The Indonesian Air Force is responsible for the aircraft operations while Garuda for its maintenance. The State Secretariat will bear all the costs. (put/nvn)

Regio Aviasi Industri to Manufacture Planes by 2018

Jakarta. Indonesian aviation company Regio Aviasi Industri plans to start local production of passenger aircraft from 2018, to tap local demand.

Agung Nugroho, president director of RAI, told reporters on Tuesday that the company was planning to build 400 units of the R80 turboprop passenger aircraft over 20 years.

He said RAI was now in the final stage of its preliminary design for the aircraft, which will have a carrying capacity of between 80 and 90 passengers.

The company will soon enter the second phase of the project, which involves detail design and prototype manufacturing.

Serial production of the aircraft will start in 2018.

RAI will collaborate with state aviation manufacturer Dirgantara Indonesia to produce the aircraft, Agung said.

RAI is affiliated with former Indonesian president B.J. Habibie and his son Ilham Habibie.

Agung said the aircraft will meet demand from local airlines. Indonesia’s aviation industry has grown by 19 percent per annum in the past few years.

“We have signed letters of intent with two national airlines — KalStar Aviation and NAM Air,” Agung said.

He said NAM Air — a unit of Sriwijaya Air — plans to buy 100 of the R80 planes, while KalStar, a Pontianak-based airline, plans to buy 25.

Agung said RAI’s biggest competitor in Indonesia was Italian-French aircraft builder ATR (Avions de Transport Regional, or Aerei da Transporto Regionale) and Bombardier of Brazil.

He said RAI’s aircraft will have bigger capacity and better fuel efficiency than the ATR and Bombardier aircraft.

Agung did not reveal the investment amount required to build the planes.

RAI president commissioner Ilham Habibie said the company planned to further develop the R80 to a capacity of 100 passengers.

“Indonesia, as an archipelagic country, will always need air transport. Smaller planes are also needed for island-hopping,” Ilham said.

He added that beside KalStar Aviation and NAM Air, other national airlines that were interested in the R80 were Wings Air, Sky Aviation, Citilink and Merpati Nusantara.

RAI on Tuesday signed a memorandum of understanding with France’s Dassault Systemes to help with the production of R80. Dassault Systemes will provide the platforms and solutions in detail design and manufacturing of the plane.

Citilink is the low-cost unit of Garuda Indonesia.

Indonesia aiming to be among key contributors of peacekeeping forces

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Indonesia is keen to be among the ten major contributors of peacekeeping forces in the world in the next one or two years time.

"Currently, Indonesia is ranked 17th in the world, but in the next one or two years time, we intend to be among the ten biggest contributors," President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono stated while inaugurating the Indonesia Peace and Security Center in Sentul, West Java, on Monday afternoon.

He explained that in order to achieve this goal, Indonesia has set up the IPSC in Sentul, which is a center for preparing the forces that will take part in peacekeeping missions across the world as mandated by the countrys 1945 Constitution.

President Yudhoyono elaborated that Indonesia has already deployed two thousand personnel for peacekeeping purposes, but in order to meet the target, two thousand additional forces will be required.

The IPSC has seven main facilities, such as the TNI Peacekeeping Mission Center, the TNI Operations Ready Forces Command, the Indonesia Defense University, the Indonesia Military Sports Committee, the Anti-Terrorism and De-radicalization Training Center, the Center of Disaster Management Training and Education, and the Center of Language Diplomacy and Strategy Development.

The IPSC sits on a 261.569 hectare plot of land.

Foreign aircraft forced down in Medan

The Indonesian Air Force forced a Swearingen SX300 aircraft to land at Soewondo Air Force Base in Medan, North Sumatra, on Thursday for entering Indonesian airspace without permission.

The red US-registered monoplane was forced down by two F-16 jet fighters. A number of fully armed Air Force personnel and sniffer dogs inspected the aircraft after it landed at Soewondo but no dangerous goods were found.

The aircraft will be impounded by the Air Force until the questioning of pilot Heinz Pieter, 65, is complete.

The National Air Defense Sector Command (Kosekhanudnas) III chief, Air Commodore Sungkono, said during an operation in Sumatra a foreign aircraft was detected in Indonesian airspace without a valid permit.

“The foreign aircraft was intercepted at 80 nautical miles [148.16 kilometers] west of Meulaboh, Aceh. The aircraft was then forced to land at Soewondo at about 12:44 p.m.,” he said at the air force base on Thursday.

Sungkono said the pilot had explained he was flying from Colombo, Sri Lanka, to Singapore and was not aware he had entered Indonesian airspace.

“The pilot said he was not aware of Indonesia’s borders that’s all,” he said.

Sungkono added that the pilot was a retired commercial pilot from Switzerland and that so far there were no threat indications from the aircraft.

Heinz told Air Force personnel that he was on a journey around the world in his private, home-built airplane. (nvn)
