20 Thai-made armoured vehicles here to stay


THE Army has no plans to decommission its 20 Lipan Bara armou­red vehicles, manufactured by Thailand’s Chaiseri, as they remain actively used for operations and training, says Deputy Defence Minister Adly Zahari.

He said 14 of the vehicles are deployed with the Royal Armour­ed Corps in Kota Belud, Sabah, while the remaining six are stationed at the Armoured Training Centre in Port Dickson, Negri Sembilan.
