Malaysia to allow visa-free entry of Indian and Chinese tourists from December 1 | Oneindia News
In a significant move to boost its tourism, Malaysia has declared it will be scrapping the entry visa requirements for citizens of India, starting the 1st of December.
This announcement, made by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, follows similar actions taken by Vietnam, Thailand, and Sri Lanka in recent times.
A dramatic accident has rocked the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) as one of its US-made F/A-18D Hornet fighter jets crashed during a night operation at Sultan Ahmad Shah Airport in Kuantan on Thursday, Aug 21. The incident occurred around 9:05 pm, prompting immediate response teams to secure the area. Thankfully, both the pilot and co-pilot managed to escape unharmed, confirmed Pahang police chief Commissioner Datuk Seri Yahaya Othman. The RMAF issued a statement assuring that urgent measures are underway and further updates will follow. This accident has sparked renewed attention on Malaysiaâs Hornet fleet, which has faced issues before. In 2019, a similar F/A-18D jet at the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition ingested a foreign object mid-display, leading to an engine fire, though it landed safely. Malaysia currently operates just eight F/A-18D jets, raising concerns about the future readiness of its aging fleet.

Cambodia is set to nominate U.S. President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, crediting his pivotal role in negotiating a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand after a deadly five-day border conflict. Cambodiaâs Deputy Prime Minister Sun Chanthol hailed Trumpâs âgreat efforts for peace,â saying his intervention â including threats to pull out of trade talks â forced both Southeast Asian nations to come to the negotiating table.
The ceasefire, brokered in Malaysia, ended the regionâs worst violence in over a decade, which left at least 43 people dead and displaced over 300,000. Trump said the war âwould have turned nasty,â but was halted by leveraging trade diplomacy. This marks Trumpâs third recent Nobel recommendation, following nominations by Israel and Pakistan for mediating other global crises. The Cambodian leader also praised Trump for reducing tariffs on Cambodian exports, sparing the nationâs garment and footwear sector from economic collapse.

Tens of thousands rallied in Kuala Lumpur demanding Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahimâs resignation over rising living costs and tax policies. Protesters, clad in black âStep Down Anwarâ shirts, marched to Independence Square as police estimated over 18,000 attendees. Former PM Mahathir, 100, joined the protests, accusing Anwar of misuse of power and judicial interference. Public anger has surged after subsidy cuts, expanded taxes, and dropped graft charges against Anwarâs allies.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan â Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Trump used India as a Pawn to pressure Putin into a Summit. Vlada however clears that the sanctions on India were nothing personal against India and only a pressure-tactic against Putin, which played a role to some extent to get the Alaska meeting in place.

During the live coverage of the historic TrumpâPutin meeting in Alaska, a heated debate broke out between Burzine Waghmar SOAS, University of London, and journalist Nagen Singh of OneIndia News. Waghmar argued that Russiaâs economy is overheated and claimed Putin cannot sustain the Ukraine war beyond a year. He also questioned Indiaâs obsession with Moscow and the romanticization of Indo-Russian ties. Countering him, Singh accused the West of hypocrisy and blamed the UK and U.S. for Indiaâs deep-rooted closeness with Russia.

South China Sea Breaking: In a significant escalation of defensive capabilities, Taiwan has officially formed its first combat-ready HIMARS rocket unit. This move is designed to strengthen deterrence against increasing threats and military pressure from China. Taiwan's Defense Minister, Wellington Koo, lauded the new unit as a "significant boost" to the island's defensive power, underscoring the strategic importance of this deployment. The soldiers operating these advanced systems have completed specialized training in the United States, highlighting the close military cooperation between Washington and Taipei.
The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) is a game-changer for Taiwan's military. It can fire six 227mm rockets or a single Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missile, the latter boasting a range of up to 300 kilometers. This impressive range means that key military and strategic targets deep within mainland China's coastal provinces are now potentially within Taiwan's strike capability. Reports suggest that Taiwan may have already acquired these long-range ATACMS missiles, a detail that is sure to alarm military planners in Beijing.
This deployment is part of a larger arms deal with the U.S., with 11 of a total 29 HIMARS systems already delivered. The move aligns with America's broader strategy to build a strong coalition in the Indo-Pacific to counter China's growing military and economic dominance. While the HIMARS system has proven its devastating effectiveness in the Ukraine conflict, analysts note that China's more advanced air defense systems could pose a greater challenge. The activation of this unit comes as Chinese military aircraft and vessels continue to cross the sensitive median line of the Taiwan Strait, prompting regular intrusion warnings from Taipei and keeping the region on high alert.
