I think Malaysia should cancel FA50 from south Korea and buy J10 for the same price.

Malaysia Airforce is just like IAF, they have UK/ US / Russia fighters systems that prevent in-depth system integration to enhance their success rate

Buying China system will just be another further effort to diversify, which made Malaysia Air Force more inclusive like DEI

As a Sinki, I fully support your recommendations whole heartedly

Buy more if you dare. Side effects may include joy, confusion, and spontaneous kung fu.

Buying big ticket items like fighter jet, AWACS, SAM etc are based on half technicalities and the other geopolitical considerations. Particularly for fighter jets, they need long term maintenance and training supports from the selling country. In other words you are entrusting your security on the goodwill of the selling country. .

Reason why Rapistan buy from multiple sources. They don't want to be held politically ransom by major powers. Unlike China, Rapistan don't have the ability to produce themselves.

Sinkiestan is on the other extreme, we only buy from single source which means we are beholden to the Mericunt politically and diplomatically.

So as a Sinkistan Bumi…I highly recommend Jiuhuistan to diversify and be inclusive to source from Cina as well

My 1cent idea

Rmaf sukhois uses NATO electronic gear. And hence train regularly with US .. Airforce. They even send their F22 to Butterworth to train with rmaf sukhois.
