Why was Kim Jong Nam assassinated in Malaysia and not in Macau or Singapore?

I received the below from an anonymous contributor and very interesting and let see if the readers have an opinion of theirs too and leave it in comments section. A very intresting read

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.

Yup Malaysia is always famous for the wrong reasons and heaven for the rogue elements and criminals.

Why Malaysia can’t be recognized for good things because when you do good things you end up in prison
