  The military as an integrating force in nation-building: The case of Malaysia

  The process of nation building in Malaysia started since its independence in 1957. The process of nation building involves the development of its members and communities, politically, economically and socially. This process of modernisation is not a mere and easy task to perform.
  
  Malaysia has since then prosper and is moving forward toward a fully developed nation by 2020. It has managed to attain an impressive economic growth of above 8% for the last one decade. All this achievement has not come easy. Malaysia faced various threats and challenges both internally and externally in developing its nation. Therefore the process of nation building is neither autonomous in its dynamics nor free to select at random its goals.
  
  Military in its professional entities is the provider of security and stability towards a nation. This condition is imperative in ensuring the economic growth and the process of nation building to proceed and developed. In this case the Malaysian Armed Forces has and will continue to contributes toward this process, especially with the future challenges which will be more complex in its dimensions.

  The military as an integrating force in nation-building

  The military is an instrument that plays important roles and functions both during war and in peace time. During war, the role of the military is clear; to defend against the enemy attack or to recapture fallen territory. In peace time, the military train for war and to create a picture that the potential enemy will have a second thought to attack the country it is serving. The latter role is not very clear to the general public or the politicians, as such misunderstanding exists among non-intellectuals as to the role the military plays in nation building. Is ensuring national security part of nation building? Does nation building and national security be planned and executed independantly?
  
  Many scholars agree that security plays an important part in any nation's development process. Military is the force that can ensure security beside the police force and other agencies of the Home Affairs Ministry. Security will stabilise the country and subsequently nation building will come.
  
  Presently all countries have some form of military forces to defend the nation-states. Defense of nation state is the subset of national security. From the security provided by the military, Malaysia has achieved enormous success, in terms of political stability, economic prosperity and social cohesion. Military will continue to provide service as long as it is needed so as to allow Malaysia to strive forward and achieve the vision of turning her into a developed nation. While it aspires to be a developed nation, Malaysia does not neglect the need for national security for it is the foundation on which peace and prosperity is built.
  However, Malaysia's emphasis on deterrence through diplomacy though politically justified, did not by itself provide the means to guarantee national integrity and the preservation of its sovereignty. For deterrence to be credible, it must not only be seen in physical form but also in the sustained will, resilience of its people and the ability to mobilize in shortest possible time its economic, social, psychological and military power of nation to meet a threat.

  The Malaysia must have known the Jakun...

  "The Malaysia must have known the Jakun from earlier times, by the very name Jakun. In Malay idioms, anything that refers to an aspect of folkways that was considered unMalay, or deeply rural, was said to be "Jakun". This idiom is no longer in use, for two reasons. Firstly, the Malays themselves have realised that it is rude and crude to use such langauge, and parents as well as editors of publications have taken unto themselves to see that expressions that denigrate a particular group, not just the Jakun, are wiped out of usage. Secondly, people's perception as transmitted by such idioms does not reflect the Jakun of today who have come out of the jungles and live in settlements next to the Malays and other races of Malaysia, with some in the urban or semi-urban centres."

  The Malay defence system

  Alan Renswick dan Ian Swinburn dalam buku mereka (K.Ramanathan, 1987), "Basic political Concept", membahagikan kuasa kepada tiga bahagian iaitu kuasa politik, kuasa ekonomi dan kuasa ketenteraan. Kuasa politik ditakrifkan sebagai nadi penggerak utama dalam masyarakat dan tidak boleh digugat. Kuasa ekonomi pula disifatkan sebagai satu "compensatory power" di mana orang akan patuh kepada yang berkuasa dengan harapan mendapat satu ganjaran. Selanjutnya, kuasa ketenteraan adalah merupakan ukuran kepada kekuatan. Dalam konteks ini ketiga-tiga elemen di atas adalah berkait rapat antara satu dengan lain dan memberi sumbangan dan mempunyai pengaruh besar kepada Sistem Pertahanan sesebuah negara.
  
  Menyentuh tentang masyarakat negara kita Malaysia, komunitinya adalah terdiri daripada berbagai kaum yang kini menuju ke arah negara-bangsa (nation-state) yang berorientasikan perkongsian secara bersama di bawah wadah yang dikenali sebagai Integrasi Nasional. Melalui bukunya "Pentadbiran Awam: Asas pemikiran dan falsafah" (Ahmad Atory Hussain, 1990) tidak menyentuh langsung tentang Polisi Pertahanan Negara dan sehingga hari ini polisi tersebut tidak jelas tetapi sekurang-kurangnya mampu ditafsirkan di dalam Dasar Pertahanan Negara.
  
  Penerokaan terhadap kajian "Sistem Pertahanan Melayu: Mulai 1400 sehingga sekarang" tidak hanya dipandang kepada sudut keselamatan sahaja, tetapi juga turut merangkumi corak pemerintahan, kuasa politik dan sosioekonomi Melayu bermula dari zaman kegemilangan Kerajaan Melayu Melaka sehingga sekarang.

  "The main thrust of these recommendations is that Orang Asli want development and integration into mainstream society, but with their ethnic identities intact. In many ways the recommendations recall the Statement of Policy of 1961, which was abandoned in part after the government adopted the assimilation policy. These recommendations also echo those in the "Memorandum" that came from a conference of twenty-sever Orang Asli headmen from numerous groups in 1982 (Means 1985-1986:649-652; New Straits Times 1982a)."
