AF 014: MAKTAB TURUS ANGKATAN TENTERA

"my staff course"
MTAT

HAIGATE 1999

  KURSUS STAF SIRI 28  

(JANUARI HINGGA DISEMBER 1999)

I attended Command and Staff Course  Maktab Turus Angkatan Tentera (MTAT or MAFSC) from January till December1999. It was Course No. 28 since its first inception in 1972. 150 participants including 24 foreign students; 23 RMN officers, 21 RMAF officers and the rest were Army Officers from various Corps and Regiments including 2 ladies officers; namely Maj Hamidah Hamidin (my cadet intake SSC37) and Maj Kamzaini Kamal (Regular 22). Kamzaini was my classmate in my BBA(HRM) Course in UiTM from 7/94 - 6/96).

MAFSC is the second highest higher learning institution in the MAF. The college located at Haigate (near to MINDEF Complex). It was established in 1971 with the primary aim of training selected officers to meet the increasing demand of trained staff officers by the Malaysian Armed Forces Officers (Army, Navy and Air Force). The first intake was in 1972 and students from foreign countries began in 1974.

The mission of the College is to conduct a command and staff' course to develop intellectual depth and analytical capability of selected military officers so as to enable them to have a comprehensive understanding in the conduct of operations and in the management of Service resources in order:

(1)   To prepare students to assume grade 2 staff officer and command appointments in the rank of Major or equivalent.

(2)   To qualify students for the assumptions of increasing responsibility both in staff and command appointments in the rank Lieutenant Colonel or equivalent.

AIR FORCE STUDENTS

Course Module

The course were divided into 4 modules; namely, UM Module, Military Staff Duty Module, Single Service Module and Joint Forces Module.

Military Staff Duty Module and Strategic Studies - UM Module

The first six months of the course, our curriculum was executed in 'L Shape' approach. The first one hour every morning and the whole Saturday will be 'Military Module' classroom, focus on Staff Duties (basically we are reviewing the T100), the MTAT Version!. In the Military module, the students were divided into numbers of syndicate which consists of 10-12 students and led by one DS.

My Syndicate members were:  Mej Abd Razak bin Othman (RMR), Mej Mohd Amin (RMR), Mej Sazali bin Puteh (Arty), Mej Ahmad Saifudin bin Talha (RSR), Mej Kamzaini binti Kamal (GSC), Lt Kdr Abu Bakar bin Idris (RMN), Mej Toharudin bin Abd Rasid TUDM (RMAF), Lt Col Osman Sid Ahmed (Sudanese Army), Mej Mohamed Rajibul Islam (Bangladeshi Army). Our Syndicate DS was Lt Kol Azzudin bin Othman Fuad. He was my neighbour in OMQ Block JKR 4501, Lorong Golok sometimes in 1994 to 1995.

I do not know, since when that T100 had been introduced and every course (every syndicate) of MTAT has to review line by line with hundred of amendments. However until today, I do not see the 'revised' or 'corrected' version!. May be, that T100 was purposely designed or drafted for MTAT students.

The other hours of the days (Mon to Fri) were allocated for 'UM Module' to qualifiy us to get our 'Diploma in Defence and Strategic Studies'. However effective from year 2013, this module was take over by UPNM.

1st Major Assignment: Battle Studies

This is our first major assignment. It is a group works. I was in the Group No 3 and our group was assigned to study and analyse the Battle of Austerlitz (1805), one of the battles in the Napoleonic Wars. It was also known as 'Battle of Three Emperors; namely Emperor Napoleon of France, Tzar Alexander I of Russia and Emperor Francis II of Austria.

    

Emperors: Tzar Alexander I, Napoleon and Francis II

My group members were:

1.  Mej Abd Razak bin Othman (RMR)- Gp Leader - retired Lt Kol

2.  Mej Sazali bin Puteh (RAR) - retired Brig Jen, Dato'

3.  Mej Mohd Saifuddin bin Talha (RSR) - retired Mej Jen, Dato'

4.  Mej kamzaini binti Kamal (GSC) - retired Lt Kol (Puan Sri)

5.  Lt Kdr Abu Bakar Idris (RMN) - retired Laksdya (Maritim), Dato'

6.  Mej Toharudin TUDM (RMAF) - retired Mej Jen, Dato'.

Battle of Austerlitz or Battle of Three Emperors

Our group advisor was Lt Kol Azzuddin bin Othman Fuad (RMR), the most talkative DS in MTAT. He was my neighbour in OMQ before (when he was a Major). He moved out for his Masters course in UK.

Frankly, until today, I was not satisfied with my works. This first assignment was not so successful because of lack of cooperation among the group members especially the green members. I expected they will be the main player because land battle is their bread and butter in their life. We, the AF and Navy were alien to all those things. The first assignment was not successful because lack of cooperation between the syndicate members. Nearly REDO. I am not boosting to tell that most of the job was from my hand, either the write up or the Power Point preparation. I got to admit, since I was not so familiar with the land warfare (nothing better in air warfare), parts of the presentation was plagiarized from the previous intake (I think, not worth for me to work too hard to show that I am  expert in land warfare since the Army members were not serious about it). Off course, I modified here and there especially the pictures, words and colour scheme. Our presentation received 'severe comments' from the CDS and nearly to 'redo'. First lesson!.

The next writing assignment was individual assignment, that was on Leadership. The topic given to me was Admiral Lord Mountbatten of British Royal Navy.

Lord Mountbatten

The first of three module in MAFSC is Diploma in Defence and Strategic Studies, a collaboration programme with University of Malaya. The six month module was full with academic classes (lectures) and also non-stop assignment. This programme covers the following 5 subjects;

1.  Research Methodology and Research Paper, facilitated by Assoc Prof Khairulmaini Salleh and Assoc Prof Hashim Awang.

2.  Malaysian Studies by Prof Datuk Dr Mahathir Mohd Khir (he was later become a Member of parliament for Sungai Petani (2004-2008) and appointed as a Deputy Minister of Education)

3.  National and Regional Studies by Prof Dr Ranjit Singh Gill and Puan Ruhanas Harun;

4.  International Relations by Mr K Balakrishnan; and

5.  Security and Strategic Studies by Assoc Prof Mohd Idris Ismail (Lt Col retired)

Dalam keputusan akhir peperiksaan saya mendapat 3A (Malaysian Studies, National and Regional Studies dan International Relations)  2B (Research Paper dan Security Studies) untuk Modul Diploma UM saya, di antara 5 teratas di kolej. Kami tamat pengajian bersama dengan graduan UM lain dalam Konvokesyen bulan November. Walau bagaimanapun, kami (graduan diploma) tidak dijemput untuk menerima skrol kami di atas pentas. Hanya berdiri beramai-ramai untuk menunjukkan muka.

Cultural Nites

This was an annual events. Students were required to organise the cultural nights. The organising committees were set up at the early stage of the course. The cultural nights were:

Malay Cultural Nite organised by Malay students. 

Chinese Cutural Nite by Chinese students. 

Indian Cultural Nite by Indian students.

Gawai Nite. Since there were no Iban student in our course, the responsibilities were given to students from Royal Ranger Corps.

International Cultural Nite by the foreign students.

Serbanika Nite. This was the final show (performance) by the students according to the Regiments or Coprs, RMN, RMAF and foreign students group. The RMAF group presented 'Chinese Opera' titled 'Sun Tzu- The Arts of War' and I was one of the actor.  The director was Mej Mohammad Noor Akmar TUDM.

Diner's Club 

We have 3 invited speakers for our Diners Club. Our first guess was Dato Seri Najib Tun Razak (Minister of Education), followed by Dato' Dr Lim Kheng Yaik (Minister of Primary Industries)- later 'Tun'. Throughout his lectures was full with jokes and joys. None in his speech had 5 minutes without big laugh. And, for the first and only, throughout the course that nobody fell into sleep during the lecture in 'comfortable' auditorium of Dewan Hikmat. The third guess speaker was Prof Dr Sidek Baba from UIAM.

Regional Visits under KESBAN

Our Course consider the unlucky year due to economic recession. All the overseas trips which were enjoyed by the previous batch were cancelled. The only long distance visits were under KESBAN. The course participants were divided into 3 groups; first group went to Johore and Singapore, second group travelled to east coast via Pahang, Terengganu, Kelantan and ended up at Pattani and Yala; and my group went to the northern part, visit Penang, Kedah, Langkawi and cross to Hatyai and Songkhla in Thailand. All groups were moved by buses.

Profitable Course

Most of the MTAT graduates said that Staff College was a hectic course. No time to relax, overlapping assignment, especially during the UM Module. But not for me. I made a lot of money in this course. My hobby is writing, so I read books, materials from websites, lecture notes and retype my note properly. Reproduced, binded and sold to the other students. Like 'goreng pisang panas'. I found that my notes were reproduced and inherited from one course to another until the photostat copy can't be seen anymore.

Another way of making money. I like to finish my assignment early. I hold the principle of "do not procrastinate your works'. So, I got more free time. I found that, most of the foreign students like to send their assignment to the typist outside. The civilian typists were not good in 'staff duties' so they made a lot of mistake in the typing. So, I offered my self to take the job with cheaper rate, about RM1 per page. I managed to do for 3 students; Rajibul Islam (Bangladeshi), Osman (Sudanese) and Pizan (Filipino). Lucrative business isn't it?

Do you know that, my first adventure in surfing and my first chatting activities in ICQ and hotmail was I was in MTAT? I learned it from Maj Ganeson (retired Lt Col)
