Yes, but you should understand that the one that will do the order (if it is accepted as now it is still not sure) is not him, but Defense Minister Sjafrie Syamsoedin

So it is understandable he will have neutral comment, it is let to Sjafrie and also Prabowo to do that, Indonesian defense procurement is now more top down and centralized under Prabowo Administration

What is the reason for him to say that at this time, what does it mean of "be patience and wait"?

Dont know, but Defense Minister give mix signal, Sjafrie said J10 will fly in Indonesia at one time, but in the other time he said J10 is not fixed order and he just looking around

So as the Defense Minister Sjafrie (former Special Force Commander and buddy of Prabowo since they were both young in Special Force) has mixed signal, current Air Force Commander dont want to make statement that could go beyond what Sjafrie has said and dont want to go against him either, so it is pretty neutral comment that he said. It is my analisist

Not true ( giving time line )

It is answer due to journist question, so he doesnt said that as if it is a next execution. Some time if we dont understand context, we will likely be misguided, so it is important to use analisist from informed Indonesian analist regarding Indonesian issue

Our journalist is also not good enough for defense matter as they are not specialist, only 2 journalist that I see pretty informed among Indonesian journalists regarding defense issues

As for my knowledge, I am already following defense issue since 2013 ( for KF21 even since 2009) so it is already more than one decade with passion as well
