Introduction
Perajurit has been and remains the only publication covering military and security affairs, as well as defence technology completely in Bahasa Malaysia or the Malay Language. In its second decade of publication, this bi-monthly is published in Malaysia by Inai Damai Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of SHPMedia Sdn Bhd, the publisher of Asian Defence Journal, Asia’s leading defence magazine.
Perajurit focuses on reporting and analysing defence and security issues involving the ASEAN/Southeast Asian region generally and Malaysia specifically. These relate to strategic and tactical land, naval and air subjects and includes analyses of procurement policies and programmes as well as inventories. Eventhough editorial coverage of Perajurit is from an Asian prespective, the global defence industry is also a one of Perajurit’s main components. Our contributors include academics, government and military officials as well as industry professionals from around the world. Product-specific articles are also regularly featured as are individual armed forces and units.
While our primary aim is to provide a platform to promote understanding of defence affairs among Malaysian public, thus enabling them to support and contribute to efforts at building an effective national defence. An important objective of Perajurit is to provide a medium for local and global defence industry players to introduce their products and services to decision-makers responsible for the region’s defence and security as well as to potential business partners.
Our Reach
Perajurit has a circulation approaching 20,000 copies per month and is circulated to the top echelons of the Malaysian government, including the Prime Minister’s Department and the Ministry of Defence, the Malaysian Armed Forces and Police. Similarly the magazine is made available to high-level officials of the ministries of defence/security, armed forces, police and diplomatic missions of Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia and Singapore. Copies of the magazine are also circulated to companies and other organisations related to the defence industry.
Nevertheless the magazine’s core readership is derived from the mass market, the magazine being widely available on newsstands in Malaysia. Perajurit can also be purchased online at www.lazada.com.
Perajurit merupakan satu-satunya majalah pertahanan, keselamatan dan teknologi pertahanan yang ditulis sepenuhnya di dalam Bahasa Melayu. Mula diterbitkan semenjak dua dekad lalu, majalah ini diterbitkan oleh Inai Damai Sdn Bhd, anak syarikat SHP Media Sdn Bhd yang merupakan penerbit Asian Defence Journal, majalah pertahanan terkemuka di Asia.
Perajurit memberikan fokus kepada laporan dan analisis isu pertahanan dan keselamatan yang melibatkan Malaysia secara khusus dan rantau ASEAN / Asia Tenggara secara amnya. Ini termasuk mengenai subjek-subjek mengenai strategi dan taktikal darat, laut dan udara serta rangkuman analisis dasar dan program perolehan serta inventori. Sungguhpun liputan editorial Perajurit adalah dari perspektif Asia, industri pertahanan global turut menjadi antara komponen penting di dalam Perajurit. Perajurit jugak sering mengetengahkan penulisan artikel dari para akademik, pegawai kerajaan dan tentera serta warga professional industri dari seluruh dunia. Artikel khusus mengenai produk juga sering dipaparkan seperti keperluan peralatan persenjataan individu.
Selain daripada menyediakan platform berbentuk informasi tentang hal ehwal pertahanan untuk pembaca dari kalangan orang awam, Perajurit juga menyediakan sebuah medium bagi pemain-pemain industri pertahanan tempatan dan antarabangsa untuk mempromosikan produk-produk dan perkhidmatan mereka serta menghubungkan mereka dengan rakan niaga yang berpotensi di dalam dan luar negara.
