Malaysian Military Ranks?

Question

Can anybody please tell me what are the ranks called in the Malaysian Army for officers (captain, generals) and men (corporal, sergeant...warrant officers)?

I just want to know the ranks for men and officers of the Malaysian Army.

Answer 1

General, Flag, or Air Officers
Officers who typically command units or formations that are expected to operate independently for extended periods of time (brigades and larger, or flotillas or squadrons of ships), are referred to variously as General Officers (army, marines, and some air forces), Flag Officers (navy), or Air Officers.

General Officer ranks typically include (from the top down) General, Lieutenant General, Major General, and Brigadier General, although there are many variations like Division General or (Air-, Ground-)Force General.

Flag Officer ranks, named after the traditional practice of showing the presence of such an officer with a flag on a ship and often land, typically include (from the top down) Admiral, Vice Admiral and Rear Admiral.

Air Officer ranks usually include Air Chief Marshal, Air Marshal, Air Vice-Marshal and Air Commodore.

In some forces there may be one or more superior ranks to the common examples, above, that are given distinguishing titles, such as Field Marshal (many armies), Fleet Admiral (U.S. Navy), Marshal of the Royal Air Force, or other national air force. These ranks have often been discontinued, such as in Germany and Canada, or limited to wartime and/or honorific promotion, such as in the United Kingdom and the United States

In various countries, particularly the United States, these may be referred to as "star ranks" for the number of stars worn on some rank insignia: typically one star for Brigadier General or equivalent with the addition of a star for each subsequent rank. While in the United States five stars has been the maximum used in all services (excluding the Marines and Coast Guard which have only used four).

Some titles are not genuine ranks, but either functions assumed by generals or honorific titles. For instance, in the French Army Général de corps d'armée is a function assumed by some Généraux de division, and Maréchal de France which is a distinction denoting the most superior military office, but one that has often neutered the practical command powers of those on whom it is conferred. In the United States Navy, a commodore currently is a senior captain commanding a squadron that is too small for a rear admiral to command, although that name has historically been used as a rank.


Field or Senior officers
Field officers, also called "field-grade officers" or "senior officers", are officers who typically command units that can be expected to operate independently for short periods of time (infantry battalions, cavalry or artillery regiments, large warships, air squadrons). Field officers also commonly fill staff positions.

The term "field(-grade) officer" is primarily used by armies and marines; air forces and navies generally prefer the term "senior officer." The two terms are not necessarily synonymous.

Typical army and marine Field Officer ranks include Colonel , Lieutenant Colonel, and Major. In many Commonwealth countries the field rank of Brigadier is used, although it fills the position held by Brigadier General in other countries.

Typical naval Senior Officer ranks include Captain, Commander, and Lieutenant Commander. In some countries, the more senior rank of Commodore is also used, a position that follows the flag flying tradition (above) of Flag Officers but through the use of a dove-tail pennant of rank instead of the flag or triangular pennant of other senior officers.

Commonwealth air force Senior Officer ranks include Group Captain, Wing Commander, and Squadron Leader.


Company Grade or Junior Officers
The ranks of junior officers are the three or four lowest ranks of officers. Units under their command are generally not expected to operate independently for any significant length of time. Company grade officers also fill staff roles in some units. In some militaries, however, a captain may act as the permanent commanding officer of an independent company-sized unit, for example a signal or field engineer squadron, or a field artillery battery.

Typical army Company Officer ranks include Captain and various grades of Lieutenant. Typical naval Junior Officer ranks include various grades of Lieutenant and/or Ensign. Commonwealth air force Junior Officer ranks usually include Flight Lieutenant, Flying Officer, and Pilot Officer.


Warrant Officers
Warrant officers (as receiving authority by virtue of a warrant) are a hybrid rank treated slightly differently in each country and/or service. WOs may either be effectively senior non-commissioned officers or an entirely separate grade between commissioned and non-commissioned officers, usually held by specialist personnel.


Enlisted personnel
Enlisted personnel are personnel below commissioned rank and make up the vast majority of military personnel. They are known by different names in other countries, such as Other Ranks (ORs) in the United Kingdom and some Commonwealth countries, and Non-commissioned members (NCMs) in Canada.


Non-Commissioned Officers
Non-commissioned officers (NCOs) are enlisted personnel, under the command of an officer, granted delegated authority to supervise other military members or assigned significant administrative responsibilities. In U.S. Army parlance: "NCOs are the backbone of the Army!"[3] They are responsible for the care and direct control of junior military members, often functioning in the smaller field units as Executive Officers.

Even the most senior NCO officially ranks beneath the most junior commissioned officer or warrant officer. However, most senior NCOs have more experience, possibly including combat, than junior officers. In some organizations, senior NCOs may have formal responsibility and informal respect beyond that of junior officers, but less than that of warrant officers. Many warrant officers come from the ranks of mid-career NCOs. In some countries warrant ranks replace senior enlisted ranks.

NCO ranks typically include a varying number of grades of Sergeant and Corporal (air force, army and marines), or Chief Petty Officer and Petty Officer (navy and coast guard). In many navies the term rate is used to designate specialty, while rank denotes paygrade.


Other enlisted ranks
Personnel with no command authority usually bear titles such as Private, Marine, Airman/Aircraftman and Seaman. In some countries and services, personnel in different branches have different titles. These may have a variety of grades, but these usually only reflect variations in pay, not increased authority. These may or may not technically be ranks, depending on the country and/or service.

Answer 2
