Actually there is no defense desk at our news papers or TV, I think they are all employed from domestic political desk, so except for our specialized magazine, the accuracy is still debatable if there is no quote from any military expert or high military officials. For this point I have to agree on you since the information didnt come up directly from source person himself.

Intelligence agency asks Australia to ensure Indonesian consulate`s security
Rabu, 4 Maret 2015 22:25 WIB | 808 Views

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Head of the Indonesian State Intelligence Agency (BIN), Lt. Gen. (Retd.) Marciano Norman has asked the Australian government to ensure the security of the Consulate General of the Republic of Indonesia in Sydney.

"We ask the Australian intelligence and police to look for those responsible for splattering red liquid around the Indonesian Consulate in Sydney and ensure the security of Indonesian diplomats," Marciano Norman said here on Wednesday.

According to Marciano, the Australian police should provide additional security.

"The Australian government should provide more security for Indonesian diplomats," he affirmed.

He also urged Australian authorities to investigate the incident wherein a balloon filled with liquid was pelted at the nations consulate 06.00 A.M. local time on Tuesday morning.

"They have evidence. So, they should investigate the case," Marciano stated.

Earlier, a professor observed that Australia should ensure the security of Indonesian diplomats there in the run-up to the execution of two Australian convicts in Indonesia.

"The government of Indonesia needs to ask the Australian police to ensure the security of its diplomats and representative offices in that country ahead of the executions," Hikmahanto Juwana, a professor of international law at the University of Indonesia, stated here on Wednesday.

Indonesia deploys its police officers at the embassies of friendly countries and the residences of foreign diplomats, he pointed out, adding that Australia should do the same in the wake of the imminent execution of the Bali Nine pair from Australia, Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran.

Juwana affirmed that Australia would be blamed if it failed to guarantee the security of Indonesian diplomats and its consulate offices in the country in accordance with the international law.

The execution of drug offenders can happen any time soon as two Australians and a Cordovan death row convicts were brought to Nusakambangan island in Central Java on Wednesday to face a firing squad.

The two Australians, Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran, who were members of the Bali Nine and were convicted of heroin smuggling in 2005, and Raheem Agbaje Salami of Cordoba, Spain, have been taken to Nusakambangan island where they will be executed soon.

Chan and Sukumaran were taken from Krobokan Prison in Denpasar to Ngurah Rai Airport where they were flown to Cilacap in Central Java by a chartered Wing Air plane with registration number ATR-72-600 PK-WGO amid heavy rain at 6.50 A.M. local time on Wednesday.

Escorted by two Sukhois and two F-16 fighter planes, the Wing Air plane with Chan and Sukumaran arrived at Cilacaps Tunggul Wulung Airport at 8.14 A.M. local time.

From the airport, they were transferred to the execution island of Nusakambangan under tight security; they arrived at the prison there at 8.50 A.M. on Wednesday. (*)

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Indonesias Chief Security Minister Tedjo Edhy Purdijatno revealed here on Tuesday that aspirants of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) use tour programs as a method to join the Islamic group.

"They have a new method---they join tour agencies programs," he said after attending a leadership meeting of the defense forces (TNI) and the police.

These people, he added, use travel agencies to get to their destinations in the Middle East and separate themselves from their tour groups after reaching there.

In cooperation with the police and the National Intelligence Agency (BIN), Purdijatno affirmed that he would increase alertness with regard to this information.

He also pointed out that he would take efforts to stop them, in collaboration with the immigration office, if their presence is known.

Moreover, while opening the meeting, President Joko Widodo ordered for the maintenance of the countrys security and stability.

With regard to terrorism, he observed that preventive efforts must be maximized.

"Intelligence must be strengthened and on-field data must be made available. We should not wait for an incident to occur to act," he remarked.

He added that overcoming the ISIS ideology is a common responsibility. "The challenge must be dealt with together," he stressed.

Terrorism still poses a threat not only to Indonesia, but to other countries as well. Jokowi mentioned that the ISIS is an eminent terror threat.

He emphasized that security and stability are crucial to help achieve the targets of economic growth and infrastructure development.

The meeting was also attended by Deputy National Police Chief Commissioner General Badrodin Haiti, Navy Chief of Staff Admiral Ade Supandi, Army Chief of Staff General Gatot Nurmantyo, Air Force Chief of Staff Marshall Agus Supriyatna, Administrative Reform Minister Yuddy Chrisnandi, BIN Chief Marciano Noorman, and other high-ranking TNI and police officials.

I have to say I like what Indonesia is doing. You guys are very focus & prudent in your defense spending, step-by-step approach & well-tailored to your needs. Everyone hype China or India as the next sea power, but I believe you guys are the one to watch, especially when Indonesia is the gatekeeper between the Pacific & Indian Oceans.

Thanks Mate, well I am quite agree on you on this. Currently we try to balance between economic development, our military industries capabilities, and our long term military goal. Those three things needs to be hand in hand to one another and also help each other during their individual progress. Currently, we dont have any immediate major thread but we are prepared to face multipolar phase of the world geopolitics (beyond 2024) and try to become one of the significant players during that moment. In order to achieve that, those three factors (economic scale, military industries, military power) needs to be in a good condition in order to project such power.
