What would do if you have tons of second world war weaponary and a host of obsolete war ships stuck back in the naval backyard? Why sell it to the Malaysians of course!. You can never go wrong with that. There's always a fool here who would even buy your used millitary underware supply for a billion bucks. All you need to do is find the right ambitious fellow whose got connections with the defence ministry and pay him some commision.Yeap.That's it. In case you're wondering I'm referring to the two scorpene and a refurbised Agosta submarine( which costs us RM 4.5 billion) that we proudly display as part of our heavily under utilised naval fleet.If you take a look at the picture,you will beforgiven if you mistakenly thought it was pieces of Pringles(TM) welded together which is capable of boarding 100 very daring sea crew.Now i've wrote about this about a year back crying out to the goverment about the bad deal they're getting themselves into, but i guess it fell on deaf ears.
Now what would you make of this? Apart from a guy's greed to even sell his country off for some monetary gain I can't see anything positive at all.Maybe i'm not seeing it rightly.Maybe I should take a look from their point of view but i am having difficulty seeing that far off my arse.
Through our comical history of national defence we have seen how many of them, aircraft and helis crashing like there's no tomorrow.You name it, all the sawah padi had been visited by at least an aircraft.The Nuri's ? don't even let me get started.Sadly, none of the fallen angels was shot by a single stray missile.It seems nature itself is our worst enemy.We might need to form an alliance just to fend them off.
But accidents do happen, don't they?Maybe. Frankly i don't even trust the submarines in the hands of our national defence. After all they were easily robbed hundreds of guns from their armoury couple of years back.What would stop this from falling into the hands of smart pirates? In fact who figured that anyone would use the straits or any oceanic means to attack this country in the first place? If I were the enemy the best way I know to infiltrate this country is via down south.Thats where millions of Indons miraculously gain entry into Malaysia without trace.Heck they could send in a batallion with our lines not even take noticing. In fact, if they wave a jalur gemilang, they may even get to vote.
