@hilton_ctwh Singapore has created a virtuous cycle in regional security, where the SAF is seen as a partner, by the TNI.
The larger scale of Super Garuda Shield with the US, & extended participation of partners, like Australia, Japan & Singapore, is a “calculated decision” by Jakarta.

@hilton_ctwh The hostile bilateral relationship between Taipei & Beijing has created a security dilemma or vicious cycle in great power relations that alarms Jakarta & her close partners (at #supergarudashield); which is expressed clearly by the Australian Foreign minister below.

@hilton_ctwh As Senator Wong said: “Australia does not want to see any unilateral change to the status quo...”
Likewise Australia, Japan, Indonesia & Singapore have no desire to rock the boat & create a vicious cycle. To hedge it’s risks, Japan is building ties with Singapore & others.

@hilton_ctwh Below, Defence Australia at its best — hedging its security risks by drawing in the Germans, the Koreans & the Japanese closer (as 1st time at #PitchBlack22). The RAAF also enjoys the active support of allies & partners, like the USAF, RAF, Armée de l'air, IAF, TNI AU & RSAF.

@hilton_ctwh Unlike Taiwan, the RSAF team just visited LM’s F-35 facility in Fort Worth, to receive briefs on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) by the USAF. Thanks to these JSF briefs, the RSAF gained an understanding of the capabilities of the F-35 JSF & their employment in ops scenarios. 
@hilton_ctwh Unlike Taiwan, with the F-35B, the RSAF is not only more resilient to runway denial, via missile & bomb attacks, it’s 4 sister services are fluent at multi-domain coalition Ops, as the navy’s participation in #RIMPAC2022 & Ex Garuda Shield 2022 demonstrate.
