The Indonesian Navy made a strange find recently when they busted a smuggling operation near Pulau Galang, an island located southeast of Batam.
Among goods like used television sets, washing machines and other electronic equipment, they found used camouflage uniforms that were originally issued by the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), The Straits Times reports.
On Wednesday, a team from Indonesia’s Western fleet saw a vessel unloading goods near the island and busted the operation. A total of 19 truckloads of smuggled goods were found — but only one carried military attire. Both the old and newer versions of SAF No. 4 uniforms were found, along with combat boots.
The alleged owner of the goods remain unclear, but the boat captain and the truck drivers are currently being held for questioning in Tanjung Pinang. We doubt that folks would want to buy them in the first place though — do they know how much each national serviceman sweats per day? Too much really, even when doused with multiples spritzes of Febreeze.
