Another big catch ...
Indonesia police seize more than a tonne of crystal meth from ship

JAKARTA: Indonesian authorities early Tuesday (Feb 20) seized 1.6 tonnes of crystal methamphetamine hidden on a ship in their second major drug bust this month, officials said.
Customs inspectors said they spotted the vessel between Indonesia's Sumatra island and Singapore and reported it to police.
A subsequent search of the Singapore-flagged ship turned up the huge haul of narcotics stuffed into some 81 rice sacks. Four Taiwanese crew were arrested including a 69-year-old man.
"We are currently weighing the drugs and questioning four Taiwanese crew," tax and customs agency spokesman Deni Sirjantoro told AFP.
Indonesian authorities said they had been looking for the ship for several months on suspicion it was shipping drugs to Indonesia and Australia, adding that it may have flown flags from different countries to avoid detection.
Earlier this month, the Indonesian navy seized 1.3 tonnes of crystal methamphetamine from a ship spotted in the strait between Singapore and Indonesia.
Local media reported the drugs were smuggled in rice sacks and the boat MV Sunrise Glory, which was flying a Singapore flag, was operated by Taiwanese crew members.
Authorities suspect the vessel of being a “phantom ship”, which has likely used many names. Officials also suspect the crew of replacing the boat’s flag according to the country it passed by.
Indonesia has some of the world's toughest anti-drugs laws, including capital punishment for some trafficking cases.

Indonesia says Uncle Sam to lift last bans on Kopassus troops
Indonesia says the US has undertaken to lift the remaining restrictions on engagement with Indonesia’s Kopassus special forces, ending a 19-year ban on the unit. Former Indonesian military commander Moeldoko, now chief of staff to President Joko Widodo, said US ambassador Joseph Donovan had confirmed on Monday during a meeting at the presidential palace that the US would “gradually lift” the last restrictions on the military unit.
This follows a request last month from Defence Minister Ryacudu Ryamizard to his US counterpart Jim Mattis to end the ban, imposed in 1999, on US engagement with the unit.
Successive Indonesian governments have lobbied for the ban to be lifted, but have had only partial success despite support from the Pentagon. Former president Barack Obama in 2010 lifted the outright ban on US military contact with Kopassus, although its 6000 members are still banned from travelling to the US or training with US forces.
In a statement issued after Monday’s meeting, General Moeldoko said Mr Donovan had emphasised the importance of co-operation between the two armed forces in preserving stability in the Asia-Pacific region and said the US intended to “reopen the possibility of a military training co-operation, (beginning) with Kopassus”.
But the US embassy in Jakarta appeared reluctant to confirm General Moeldoko’s statement yesterday, or give a time line for when US training of Kopassus might resume.
Instead an embassy spokesman said: “As Secretary Mattis’ trip to Indonesia demonstrated, we are committed to deepening our defence co-operation with Indonesia and are seeking opportunities for further engagement in various areas. All engagement activities are conducted in accordance with US law.
“We support Indonesia’s efforts to promote human rights and the rule of law, and we continue to discuss the importance of accountability for past abuses.”
The move would be in line with the unveiling last month of a shift in US national security focus from counter-terrorism to contain the rising power of China and Russia.
American forces are prevented under the “Leahy Law” from providing assistance or training to units known to have engaged in human rights abuses, unless they have addressed the abuses and held those responsible to account.
Mr Mattis said last month he understood Kopassus had turned a corner and removed those from the unit believed responsible for a crackdown on student activists under the Suharto regime, as well as the deaths of independence and secessionist activists in East Timor, Aceh and Papua.
Australia also cut ties with Kopassus after its members fired on Australian soldiers sent to East Timor in the lead-up to independence in 2002. Its ban also cited links between Kopassus and the disappearance and killings of political activists and civilians.

Heli-Expo 2018: Lord to perform ‘Black Magic’ at show
19th February 2018 - 12:02 GMT | by Helen Haxell in London
RSS
To alleviate stresses and strains to platforms and to educate crews on how best to inspect elastomeric components, Lord conducts around the world training to ensure the long-term viability of rotorcraft and its products.
In 2017 this training was conducted at 45 operator facilities around the world. Also, last year, in partnership with Bell Helicopter the training was undertaken in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Rodolphe Leroy, marketing, sales and business development manager, has personally conducted training on Bell 412s in Bogota, Colombia. Lord has also worked with the Canadian Air Force and its fleet of Bell 412s.
Other military training customers have included the Chilean Air Force and the Indonesian Army. Not just exclusive to military customers, the company is bringing its training methods to Heli-Expo 2018 and will be informing clients on when it is appropriate to remove elastomeric parts.
‘It’s kind of a ‘Black Magic’ – it’s not very easy to inspect parts and we want to avoid the removal of our parts too early and we don’t want customers to leave parts that are completely delaminated because it’s going to increase vibration on the aircraft,’ Leroy commented.
‘It will also deteriorate other parts of the aircraft. We work with OEMs on how to design our parts so that they are fail safe,’ he added.
If the issue is not resolved the vibrations can affect the crew and passengers as well as the aircraft.
Leroy said it is vital that parts are not removed too soon or too late. Therefore, the elastomeric training teaches mechanics how to know when to make that call.

Its fore-superstructures shape looks like inspired by Singapore's LMV design.Note that the design of the bridge is different than the previous KCR-60M and is much more slope in design.

Indonesian Navy submits reorganisation plans, proposals for third fleet to President Widodo
Key Points
The Indonesian Navy (Tentara Nasional Indonesia – Angkatan Laut: TNI-AL) has finalised a set of proposals that will see the service reorganised into three geographical fleets, and submitted them to Indonesian President Joko Widodo for his approval.
The TNI-AL is currently divided into two geographical commands: the Western Fleet (Komando Armada Republik Indonesia Kawasan Barat: KOARMABAR), which is headquartered in Jakarta, and the Eastern fleet (Komando Armada Republik Indonesia Kawasan Timur: KOARMATIM), which is headquartered in Surabaya.
