“National defence is not what it used to be because the country is now facing new threats, cyber threats. “Therefore, we need to monitor the sea now with vessels equipped with modern and sophisticated equipment, especially in facing pirates and smugglers, but I believe Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad is very responsive to this development,” he said.
