Why not Indonesia produce it in large numbers like 150 as its a good fighter for light strike like Scorpion and training.

Yah I agree, this FA-50 aircraft variants is good enough to serve as a frontline patrol duties and light interceptor. Also we have a similar expectations when in the future our government can add additional numbers of those FA-50 light-fighter aircraft to fill our forward air squadron base which served to guard our border area..
But once again, with the limited defense budget that we have, and since we have a huge homework to modernize all of weaponry which is urgently need to be raplaced first. Surely we have to prioritize the first requirement which has become our program..

Kalo dilihat2, cakep juga SBS, cocoknya diplot buat gantiin apa ya? Denger-denger SBS dibuat basis pengembanganya dari AMX VCI/APC yang populasinya masih lumayan banyak, sekitar 200an unit..
I think this SBS vehicle its will be good if used as a multi-purpose platform which has seen in the pictures. Whether it's as an MLRS RHan-122 rocket launcher vehicle, or even its can be installed with V-shorad mistral anti-aircraft missile system turrets which is similar like mounted on our MPCV Sherpa vehicle..

Agree, we have Anoa as the common platform for wheeled armoured vehicle, and SBS should become common platform for tracked armoured vehicles.

ST Interview with President Jokowi:

Indonesia to widen anti-terror laws



Jakarta to close legal loopholes such as one that led to radical cleric's acquittal, President tells Warren Fernandez, Ravi Velloor, Zubaidah Nazeer, Wahyudi Soeriaatmadja and Neo Xiaobin in Bogor, Indonesia

Indonesia will beef up its anti-terrorism laws to give the authorities wider powers to take preventive measures and close legal loopholes that recently saw a radical cleric escape charges of joining the banned Middle East militant group Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

"It is very important to improve our regulations on this," President Joko Widodo told The Stratis Times in an interview yesterday. "We will put more provisions in our laws so we can prevent anyone planning to launch a terror attack."

Mr Widodo, who heads a country with the world's largest Muslim population, was referring to last month's case involving 63-year-old Muslim cleric Afief Abdul Madjid, who was given a prison sentence of half the length prosecutors had demanded. The smiling cleric, who had gone to Syria for paramilitary training with ISIS, was sentenced to four years' jail for funding a terrorist paramilitary training camp in Aceh about five years ago.


The judges rejected the prosecutors' argument that joining ISIS constitutes a plan to launch a terrorist attack. Indonesia's anti-terrorism law, adopted in 2003 in the wake of the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people, can punish anyone who runs a terrorist group, but falls short of extending punishment to anyone pledging support or joining the group.

Mr Joko said he has asked his law and human rights minister to work on this with Parliament so that Indonesia could have a more preventive law on terrorism.

The threat from ISIS, he said, is one of his biggest concerns, noting that as many as 500 Indonesians had travelled abroad to support the terror group.

"For me, stability, security is very important, in our country and in our region," he said. "That means working together, working closely with all countries to solve the terrorism problem because we have zero tolerance for terrorism."

For this, he said, sharing information and intelligence among countries to fight terrorism is a must.


The acquittal of Afief, the first Indonesian to have been tried for involvement in ISIS-related activity, has raised worries as at least 13 alleged ISIS-related terrorists are slated to go on trial from next month in the West Jakarta court.

Many of the 13 have not gone to Syria. Some are accused of either creating a website to promote ISIS or funding and helping ISIS supporters to travel to the Middle East to link up with the militant group.

One of the men, Muhammad Amin Mude, 41, was arrested after police said they foiled his attempt to arrange for six people with fake passports to go to Syria. Amin is alleged to have arranged the trips of three batches of travellers to Syria prior to his arrest.

Another of those arrested, Muhammad Fachry, is accused of setting up and running a radical website that promotes ISIS and invites people to go to Syria.

Mr Adhe Bhakti, a researcher at the Centre for Radicalism and Deradicalisation Study, agrees with Mr Joko's plan to introduce a law to address the ISIS problem.

He told The Straits Times: "Afief went to Syria and pledged his allegiance to ISIS, attended a military training with ISIS. It is that clear, yet he could get off the hook."

Indonesia urgently needs a law that punishes anyone that supports a terrorist organisation, and another law that defines what qualifies as a terrorist organisation, instead of just declaring ISIS as a terrorist organisation, Mr Adhe added.

Cameron to hold talks in Indonesia and Malaysia in fight against Isis

PM hopes to build greater cooperation in countering terrorism during trip that follows reports he is considering sending special forces into Libya

David Cameron is to hold talks in Indonesia and Malaysia this week to build greater cooperation in the fight against Islamic State. The talks follow reports he is considering sending special forces into Libya, fearing the country is becoming the chief source of terrorism in north Africa, as well as a jumping off point for migrants seeking to enter Europe.

Speaking before his visit, the prime minister said he was keen to explore whether Britain could offer counter-terrorism advice to Indonesia and Malaysia, and suggested the UK could learn from their anti-extremism programmes.

“All of us face a threat from foreign fighters and from increasing radicalisation within our countries and it’s right that we look at what help we can provide to one another,” Cameron said on Sunday. “I think Britain can offer expertise on practical counter-terrorism work – dealing with the threat from foreign fighters and investigating potential terrorist plots.

“I think Britain can learn from Indonesia and Malaysia on the work they have done to tackle the extremist ideology and to build tolerant and resilient societies.”

He added that Isis will only be thwarted if countries unite against “one of the biggest threats our world has faced”.

Cameron is to offer to send British experts to Malaysia and Indonesia to help the two countries disrupt terrorist plots and improve airline security.

The prime minister has for months been expressing concern in private about the situation in Libya, but the case for a further military intervention depends on a political agreement and more stable government with which to cooperate.

It is thought the gunman who shot dead 30 British tourists in Tunisia is known to have been trained in Libya.

Four years ago Britain, France and the US, through Nato-backed no-fly zones and special forces on the ground, played a role in the collapse of the Libyan state after the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.

Alex Salmond, the SNP’s foreign affairs spokesman, said on Sunday he was concerned that Britain had not done enough to help Libya create a secure political order after the fall of the Gaddafi regime. Speaking on the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show, Salmond cited figures in the Sunday Herald showing the UK had spent 13 times more on bombing Libya than on rebuilding the country.

Official figures show that the eight-month military intervention ordered by Cameron cost £320m. But efforts to stabilise Libya following Gaddafi’s death and the collapse of his government have amounted to just £25m, which has failed to prevent the country from sliding into chaos as feuding militias battle each other.

Possible action could include sending in specialists to help the authorities organise their security operations, as well as military training teams to prepare local troops for the fight against Isis.

In a sign of concern about the state of Libya and Britain’s post-conflict intervention, the House of Commons foreign affairs committee is launching an inquiry into the government’s foreign policy with respect to the north African country. The inquiry has a parallel to the one into the invasion of Iraq, albeit on a much smaller, time-limited and less well resourced scale.

It will look at strategic analysis undertaken before the intervention regarding its implications and consequences; the extent and effectiveness of post-conflict planning by the UK and its allies; and Britain’s engagement with Libya in the aftermath of the fighting in 2011.

The inquiry will also look at the UK’s withdrawal in 2014, and its engagement with the two competing administrations and various militias in Libya since, including the extent to which it is still seen as an ally in the country.

True, we bought few units for recon vehicle and named it "ELANG". We also use this platform to further develop Komodo 4x4 armor vehicle.

Just for correction, from SIPRI database, turnout we order (licence) 100 units sherpa (elang), not just few units. My bad.
