Do you think the recent claim (by Malays...Mr Boey,<br /><br />Do you think the recent claim (by Malaysia) and denial ( by Singapore) will end up in a stand-off between both countries? I doubt so. <br /><br />The issue was highlighted by the Malaysian Defence Minister when asked for by an MP in the Parliament. Otherwise, the issue would be silenced although, I believe, notes of (diplomatic) protests are occasionally sent to Singapore MFA by its Malaysian counterpart over claims of airspace intrusions.<br /><br />The figure 2058 may appear to be alarming.Lets assume that it is overly exaggerated and just work on 1% truth. It is still considered as an intrusion of the Malaysian airspace.<br /><br />Although the airspace intrusion is an "irritant" in our bilateral relations, there are ways and means to resolve it. Leave the politicians apart, we still have other experts in the MAF/SAF and both the MFAs to work out solutions to this problem.ben sungibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07365813452074891311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2348464617577736454.post-38833119484922008592011-06-26T12:36:40.222+08:002011-06-26T12:36:40.222+08:00David, I hope you are able to speak to some of our...David, I hope you are able to speak to some of our highest policymakers on this vital lesson (bypassing the careerist pigs at PAFF). Put your faith (and your chain of command and your tax dollars) in pigs who will oppress and propagandize and do almost anything else for the sake of advancement, and you will get poll results like these. MINDEF "grassroots" are not working.anonymhttp://anonym.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2348464617577736454.post-26313104546204073162011-06-24T00:31:46.485+08:002011-06-24T00:31:46.485+08:00A timely reminder that despite the improvement in ...A timely reminder that despite the improvement in bilateral ties as demonstrated by the signing of the POA, neighbours will still step on each other toes, either intentionally or accidentally.<br /><br />One might notice that the timing of the press release is near to the closure of KTM Tanjong Pagar. <br /><br />The argument that the RSAF seems quick to act against air intruder could be argued that the locations of the airbases (ie TAB) are nearer to the Malaysian airspace and Singapore's relatively smaller airspace may result in accidental incursions by RSAF planesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
