The Rising of Anoa?

SHAH ALAM: IN my report on the IndoDefence 2014 in November, I mentioned that “according to a report by Jakarta Post, PT Pindad officials claimed that Malaysia had bought 32 Anoa APCs from them.
The Post story stated that deal was on hold due to Malaysia’s insistence that part of the procurement be paid partly through a barter trade involving Proton made cars.
Late last year, an industry source told me that an LOI to procure the Anoas had indeed been issued to Pindad several years ago. But even this source was unable to say when the deal will be finalised.
Today (Feb 7, 2015), that mystery is answered, sort off following the visit of Indonesian President Joko Widodo. As reported by The Star newspaper:
“Proton Holdings Bhd has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to develop and manufacture an Indonesian national car.
The MoU was signed between Proton and its Indonesian partner, PT Adiperkasa Citra Lestari, at a ceremony at the Proton Centre of Exellence here yesterday
The signing of the MoU was witnessed by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, Proton chairman Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Indonesian President Joko Widodo.” The full story here
I know I am assuming too much here but it pretty looked like “National Interest” card is being played out. And as usual it is the Malaysian Armed Forces that will have to carry the burden.
If the statement made by the Pindad officials as reported by Jakarta Post is true, the MOU signing with Proton yesterday probably will lead the way to the final contract.
In the 90s, a similar deal involving Proton was inked with Indonesia (Proton cars for SME Aerotiga trainer aircraft) though it did not translate into any meaningful business relationship between both countries. Indeed the export version of the Aerotiga aircraft ended up with the RMAF instead with only a small number of Proton cars actually exported to indonesia.
Apart from the Anoas, it is also likely that if we choose to fund MPAs in RMK11, we will be ordering CN235s from Indonesian Aerospace, formerly known as IPTN. The siX 235s already in service with RMAF were also manufactured by IAE.
