Formation of a close, long term military alliance between our two neighbours is unlikely due to nationalistic pride.

Indonesia is a large country and they do not wish to appear to be unable to protect their own country by joining alliances.

Well as for Malaysia, nationalistic pride eg 'Malaysia Boleh' mentality makes making military alliances unlikely.

i won't use the word alliance as there are implication to the terms. I think SG is already involved in Regional military exercise such as with India, Red Flags which has significant number of countries.

The primary concern would not come from MY and Indo as i believe they already have agreement on the "S" factor. But i believe if such an alliance were to form it would rise eye brown from PRC as it changes the balance of power. So alliance will be made between PRC and MY to contain the influence of western power projection thru Sg.

Prc and malaysia?Different race.....

to be honest....SAF not interested or dependent on any alliance at all.

It is only interested in partnerships for training, but for ops, SAF never wants to be even a little bit dependent on anybody...
