When Kim Jong Nam left Macau, he basically signed his death
certificate. He has been travelling extensive in Singapore without any fear.
Being bored of Singapore , he decided to travel in Malaysia. He did not realize
that death was nearing him in Malaysia where airport security is lacking.
Assassinating Kim Jong-Nam on Chinese territory would have been
a very serious act of war, comparable to a first strike. North Korea would have
gone for such an option only if it also intended to further seriously strain
its relations with China.
However, relations with China have indeed just recently
deteriorated over the North Korea’s latest missile test. China responded by
halting coal imports. North Korea may have wanted to demonstrate its capability
to strike distant targets even as its sphere of influence in Asia is further
curtailed.
Singapore is known to be a very safe country; which makes it a
less attractive location for such a violent crime. Singapore’s airport security
is internationally renowned as being one of the best so the assassins might
find it hard to kill him there.
Malaysia is notorious for its lax customs security at the
airport and is considered a very neutral and happy watered fertile ground.
Malaysia also employs a non-violent approach towards any conflict, and would favor
diplomatic discussions and global support.
An exception might be the Lahad Datu intrusion, which was fended
off successfully in Ops Daulat, but Filipino and Indonesian authorities were
also involved for a bit of it.
Now consider MACAU, a territory under Chinese authority and
SINGAPORE, a strategic point of world trade lines and a key US ally in
balancing the US-China South China Sea conflict. Should a North Korean
assassination happen in either, it could be pronounced as a declaration of war
and a threat to global peace, plus angering the US, the North’s nemesis and
China, it’s biggest supporter.
The most Malaysia would do is to open some investigations, send
some police to try to find the killer (since it’s a crime and they did detain
some people) and voice it out internationally.
THIS IS WHY THEY DECIDED TO KILL KIM JONG NAM IN MALAYSIA.
Why he killed , that’s another episode.
