Masalah dalam Logistik ATM dan Kesan Ke Atas Dasar Pertahanan Negara Malaysia
Pembangunan logistik Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM) yang membabitkan Tentera Darat Malaysia (TDM), Tentera Laut Diraja Malaysia (TLDM) dan Tentera Udara Diraja Malaysia (TUDM) telah dibangunkan semenjak tahun 1957 lagi. Semenjak tahun 1990-an, ATM telah melalui proses pemodenan yang pesat dan dilihat memiliki keupayaan yang kukuh dalam aspek logistik. Pembangunan DPN telah melibatkan pembangunan aspek logistik ATM. Pembelian kelengkapan pertahanan seperti kapal perang termoden di AT pada tahun 1990-an, kapal selam Scorpene, pesawat pejuang yang diguna pakai oleh negara maju seperti MiG-29, FA/18 Hornet dan Sukhoi 30MKM, kereta kebal tempur daripada Poland dan sebagainya dengan pakej pemindahan teknologi adalah usaha untuk memastikan prinsip pertahanan self-reliance ATM dapat dicapai. Proses ini telah menyebabkan kerajaan terpaksa memperuntukan jumlah yang besar dalam menyediakan kelengkapan logistik yang moden agar ia dapat digunakan secara maksimum oleh angkatan pertahanannya. Malah pembangunan pertahanan dan ketenteraan ATM turut dilihat berkembang seiring dengan perkembangan teknologi, dasar pertahanan, doktrin kelengkapan logistik semasa dunia. Namun pembangunan logistik telah menimbulkan persoalan mengenai kemampuan logistic dan ATM itu sendiri akibat timbulkan pelbagai kes kemalangan dan isu yang membabitkan ATM

Kepentingan Amerika di Timur Tengah: Program pembangunan nuklear Iran
Sejak akhir-akhir ini, senario isu dunia telah digemparkan dengan masalah pembangunan nuklear Iran yang telah dilabel sebagai mengancam keselamatan, keamanan dan kestabilan dunia. Korea Utara, China dan Rusia sering kali dituding sebagai negara yang bertanggungjawab menyebar dan membantu Iran dalam memiliki senjata pemusnah besar-besaran Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). Namun secara realitinya Amerika Syarikat juga merupakan negara yang bertanggungjawab membantu Iran membangunkan program nuklearnya. Penglibatan Amerika Syarikat dalam pembangunan nuklear Iran adalah berlandaskan kepentingan peribadi dan dalam era awal pembangunan nuklear Iran ini Amerika telah merestui program
pembangunan nuklearnya. Sebaliknya kini, Iran telah ditekan dan dilemparkan dengan tuduhan-tuduhan mengancam keselamatan dunia dan dianggap sebagai negara yang berpaksikan kejahatan. Perubahan senario hubungan antara negara daripada hubungan yang bersifat sekutu kepada seteru ini turut dikaitkan dengan masalah nuklear. Justeru, penulisan ini cuba menjelaskan perkembangan program
pembangunan nuklear Iran dan perkaitannya dengan kepentingan
Amerika Syarikat di Timur Tengah

di peringkat rantau tetapi juga di peringkat antarabangsa.
Namun, kemunculan China sebagai kuasa tentera ini tidak dicapai dengan mudah.Sebaliknya, proses kebangkitan 'gergasi merah Asia' ini telah melalui pelbagai dimensi pembangunan berdasarkan kepemimpinan semasa China. Realitinya kejayaan mereka berdiri sebagai kuasa besar
dunia dan kuasa ketenteraan adalah kejayaan yang melalui pelbagai fasa pemerintahan. Umumnya kemunculan China sebagai kuasa besar ketenteraan telah melibatkan tiga fasa utama iaitu ketika Mao Zedong (1949-1978), Deng Xiaoping (1978-1997) dun selepas Deng (1997-2009). Justeru, penulisan ini memfokuskan penjelasan mengenai usaha pembangunan dasar dun ketenteraan China menurut fasa-fasa pemerintahan para pemimpin China
Dasar pertahanan negara Malaysia: Analisis ke atas prinsip pertahanan self-reliance
The development of The National Defence Policy (NDP) since 1957 has been influenced by various factors whether internal or exterior factors of the country’s domestic affairs. Malaysia’s defence policy has three main components which are the nation’s essential and strategic area, defensive principle and national defence concept. The NDP ensures the country’s stability, peacefulness, safety, and survival. Since 1970, Malaysia has carried out the self- reliance principals which consist of six main components. The components are developing the firm defence posture, defensive strategy, defensive source, defensive logistic, defensive industry and revolution of military affairs. The implementation of defensive principals was questioned as few issues and cases regarding asset and management ability involving the Malaysian Armed Forced (MAF) surfaced. The practice of self-reliance principal arouses issues particularly on the ability to attain the self-reliance principle, problems faced by MAF, and the effects of the practice of self-reliance principals. In order to clarify the issues, a researched had been carried out by applying the realism theory in identifying and analyzing the research. Moreover, the research also referring to the implementation and defensive self-reliance model that was practiced by three countries which are South Korea, Australia, and Singapore as the indication to analyze the self-reliance principals as practiced by Malaysia. To ensure the accuracy of the data and information, the research applied the qualitative method which consists of triangulation method to gather the primary and secondary data. Interviews with the Defence Minister and the senior military officers were also carried out in gathering the information. The findings show that the practice of self-reliance principals as carried out by MAF is frail and unable to achieve the independence level of the national defence. It is because each component in the self-reliance principle is closely related and had faced various problems that effect directly to the country’s defence. Therefore, in order to make sure the effectiveness of developing the defensive principle, this research had proposed few suggestions which are strengthening the self-reliance defensive component and reorganizing the NDP structure with the intention of increasing the structural precision and enable Malaysia to be independent in maintaining the country’s safety and defence
The emergence of India as new military power: Threat or opportunity to Southeast Asia?
South Asia is a region often tinted with crisis, conflict and war.Historically, this region is undeniably a region exposed by military activities or 'use of force'.Therefore, military development has become a main agenda in South Asian countries in hope to strengthen the defense system and ensure security and national sovereignty. The need of this military development agenda has successfully made India, which obtained independence in 1947, to emerge as a new military power through certain stages to date.
