MERSING: The country's Grup Gerak Khas regiment must be equipped with the best and latest equipment in order to efficiently carry out their duties, whether on land, at sea or in the air. Sultan of Johor Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar said besides having a good organisation and skilled personnel, the regiment must also be equipped with the latest and most suitable hardware. The equipment needs to be tested, and the suppliers have to prove the ability of the products that they are supplying. "For example, the supplier of bullet-proof vests needs to wear the vest and allow a commando to shoot at him. "All outdated equipment has to be replaced with the newest and most advanced equipment that is up-to-date, with the latest technology," said Sultan Ibrahim.
