Second Annual Australia-Indonesia Defence Ministers’ Meeting
26 Juli 2013 14:25:47
Media Room
Finally as a result of our visit to HMAS Stirling and Henderson, we’ve agreed there is collaboration we can do on lessons learnt for maintenance and sustainment of submarines.
Indonesia is currently in the process of acquiring up to five submarines in conjunction with Korea.
We of course have the Collins-Class Submarine and we have taken a range of steps in recent years to enhance the maintenance and sustainment of the Collins-Class Submarine to get greater availability and greater time in the water itself.
So we’ve agreed that there are lessons that we can share on submarine maintenance and sustainment and, importantly, we’ve also agreed to facilitate Indonesia’s access to our submarine rescue facilities at HMAS Stirling.
So cooperation on submarine maintenance and sustainment, experiences and lessons learnt, but also collaboration on submarine rescue.

Maaf mbak cuma mau ngasih tau, kalo mau ngepost postingan berupa gambar, sebaiknya kumpulkan dari satu post dan masukkan per tema, jangan random. Setiap photo beri caption, atau setiap judul dari kumpulan foto yang bertema sama beri caption. Kalau tidak rapih, threadnya jadi kurang menarik.
Trims, selamat melanjutkan postingannya.

Marciano Norman: Ending
the code of silence at
spy agency
Rendi A. Witular, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | People | Thu, December 22 2011, 10:42 AM
Newly appointed National Intelligence Agency (BIN) chief Lt. Gen. Marciano Norman is no typical Army general with a penchant for secrecy who blindly complies with strict military rules.
Less than three months after taking over the position, Marciano is taking the agency on a new journey that up until now was taboo within the intelligence community: ending the code of silence in intelligence work.
Marciano, born in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, on Oct. 20, 1956, is considering setting up a public relations unit with an appointed spokesperson for the public to interact with, and reopening BIN’s website, Badan Intelijen Negara Republik Indonesia, to receive public input and distribute information.
He will even welcome journalists for a rare tour inside the sacred BIN headquarters in Pejaten Timur, South Jakarta, and hold regular meetings with leaders of prominent media outlets.
“It is time to end the years of doing intelligence work in absolute silence,” he said recently.
“We want to change the impression of BIN as a dark, scary and unfriendly agency so that the public feels comfortable with what we’re doing,” said the father of four.
Marciano’s strategy to reach out to the public is actually a rerun of a similar policy applied by former BIN chief Lt. Gen. (ret.) Hendropriyono between 2001 and 2004, a period peppered with leaked BIN documents.
Analysts at the time believed the leaks were a counterintelligence strategy, with the media as the
battlefield.
But Hendropriyono’s period of openness was tarnished with the poisoning death of human rights activist Munir in mid-2004, some say at the hands of BIN agents, aboard a Garuda Indonesia flight en route to Amsterdam.
BIN resumed its iron-clad tactics during the period of Lt. Gen. (ret.) Syamsir Siregar (2004-2009) and police general (ret.) Sutanto (2009-2011), during which BIN shut down its public relations unit and website, and rarely engaged with the media due to concerns of security breaches.
Marciano’s awareness of the mass media’s influence could be tempered by concerns that the military (TNI) may return to dominate BIN, which is by law a civilian institution.
The TNI, according to critics, largely has an allergy to human rights issues and freedom of speech. It was not until the Sutanto period that many of BIN’s civilian career officers secured top posts at the agency.
“The dichotomy between the military and civilian is no longer an issue. Whoever is capable gets the job,” said Marciano.
Unlike Sutanto and Syamsir, Marciano speaks bluntly, and has an easygoing and enthusiastic manner that many hope will change BIN’s perceived sinister image of being a place packed with assassins, like in the days of former dictator Soeharto, whose rule ended in chaos in mid-1998.
But Marciano is known to have a limited intelligence background, spending most of his career in the cavalry and as an officer at the Jakarta Military Command.
Marciano’s career got a boost after he was appointed commander of the Presidential Security Unit between 2008 and 2010.
Marciano was promoted in 2010 to Jakarta Military Commander — a post usually assigned to the President’s most trusted general. His promotion seemed obvious as he had already forged close ties with President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono when both served in the Jakarta Military Command in the 1990s.
The job is not an unfamiliar one for Marciano, whose late father, Lt. Gen. Norman Sasono, held the same post of commanding Jakarta military personnel between 1977 and 1982.
Norman Sasono was a legendary general and Cold War hero after his success in uncovering a network of Soviet spies operating in Jakarta in 1982.
Norman’s covert operation foiled a planned transaction of leaked TNI documents between Lt. Col. Soesdaryanto and Soviet spy Alexandre Finenko, who worked as head of then Soviet airline carrier Aeroflot in Jakarta.
Presumably wanting to emulate his father, Marciano has put netting foreign spies on the top of his list
of priorities in his counterintelligence efforts.
“The operation of foreign spies is also of concern. It’s on my list,” he said.
Marciano also has a number of plans to boost BIN’s performance after the enactment of the Intelligence Law in October that for the first time grants a legal foundation upon which the intelligence community can operate.
“One thing is for sure, the quality of our agents is still poor by my standards. There’ll be an overhaul to upgrade their capacities,” he said.
BIN employs around 1,800 agents scattered across the archipelago and in more than 17 countries, with this year’s operation budget set at Rp 1.2 trillion (US$133 million).
Marciano’s other priority is to strengthen BIN’s newly established economic intelligence division, which was set up by Sutanto early this year as part of the agency’s reorganization.
The new division is in the process of training more agents to equip them with in-depth knowledge of business and economic issues.
“My ambition is to have agents with the capabilities of economists who can help anticipate and provide an early warning of a potential economic crisis,” he said.

Timor Leste Investigate Purchase of Weapons from Indonesia
PT Pindad MP-1 V2
TEMPO.CO, Dili - Timor Leste National Parliament urged the government to immediately complete the investigation into the purchase of 77 MP-1 V2 firearms type from Indonesia. Already a year passed, an investigation conducted by an independent commission, but there is no result.
"The Secretary of State for Security Francisco Guterres immediately complete the investigation. No firearm purchase process through the procedure. The price is still confusing, "said Cesar Valente, a member of the Commission on Foreign Affairs, Defense, and National Security at the National Parliament of Timor-Leste, Tuesday, July 30, 2013.
Parliament, said Cesar, do not know the process of buying weapons carried by the East Timor National Police Commander Longuinhos Monteiro. The ambiguity of the firearm purchase process was thought to be triggered by the hopelessness of communication and coordination between Fransisco Guterres and Longuinhos Monteiro. "There might be a conflict between the two," he said.
Cesar suspect firearm was already in the hands of police officers in East Timor-Indonesia border.
Francisco Guterres explained, parliament actually passed a budget for the purchase of weapons from Indonesia. However, the purchase process without the knowledge and consent of the Council of Ministers which was then led by Xanana Gusmao. Suddenly the weapon has entered into Timor Leste through customs port of Dili.
Inability to uncover weapons purchases from Indonesia's PT Pindad, Francisco Guterres establish an independent commission in 2012. "The process of investigation is still ongoing," said Francisco Guterres in Dili, Tuesday, July 30, 2013. He also ensures that all weapons still detained pending investigation is completed.
Director of the Institute of Governmental Affairs Security of Timor-Leste (Fundasaun Mahein) Nelson Belo suspected arms shipment through customs at the port of Dili without checking the contents of the container, so that it passes into Timor Leste. To that end, Nelson urged the immediate completion of the investigation because it would adversely affect national security.
