How does Malaysia Army 10th Parachute Brigade video related to Singapore??

This is the thread I'm talking about.

Reading all the comment, it seem a lot of r/malaysia Redditor agree that the video release by Malaysia Army is referring to Singapore, but I don't see anyone prove it other than "Oh, the officer speak English" and "capture of two-croosing (Johor - Singapore)".

I would be glad to prove wrong, but here's my argument (also sorry for my ENG).

English is a common language when giving announcement or communicating, especially in air force and SF (10 Bridgade Paratrooper), BM is only for small talk among squad and platoon. Beyond that, during operations or exercise you will use English (arti, JTAC support, briefing, debrief, etc). 10 Para especially use English because they're involved with eks with Western country, and involves in international operation (UNIFIL, ISAF, Astute), and all their para equipment manual are in English.

Two-croosing sites is referring to Singapore? Then what's the point of 10th Parachute Brigade then? It's literally their job to fly behind enemy line and jump behind enemy position, it's fundamental of airborne operation. In this case, it was a Malaysia island captured by fictional enemy. We have alot of island. Pulau Pinang and Spratly Island is one of them. (I mention this 2 island because of SCS dispute with China).

Finally (my main point), the large scale tactics used by Malaysia Army during Eks Para Predator is not design to invade Singapore in the first place. There is NO WAY A400M and C-130 can deploy 10th Parachute Brigade into Singapore "center of gravity" without getting shot down by AA. Our military is not design for invasion, we don't even have Marine Corp (unless if you count 9th Royal Malay Regiment and 8th Royal Ranger Regiment as "marine").

If its another joint-exercise similar to Malindo Darasa 3AB (which is 30 years ago) then I can understand, but this is literally just a FB video, a propaganda video. Not to mention that the large scale exercises is conducted few week ago before Singapore national day. The cringey video need to be approved by both Kor Risik DiRaja and MinDef before release it on Facebook which take time, and even then the video is just "meh".

I would like to heard your opinion. (No, I'm not Ismail Sabri supporter, yuck.)

CORRECTION: Did I really just put 10 Para and SF on same sentence? Sorry. 10 Para is elite troop

Can you customise premium squads, for example add extra soldiers through the skill tree and get upgrades like a regular squad, or are they just locked as they are?

What contribution (if any) would the 1st Polish Parachute Brigade have been able to make if they participated in the Warsaw Uprising?

It’s well documented that the aforementioned unit of polish paratroopers were desperate to be dropped on Warsaw during the uprising to help their countrymen and most were probably aware they’d have ended up dead to the last man if they lost. But higher powers decided it was too much of a risk and kiboshed the entire plan due to Stalin’s refusal to allow allied planes to refuel in the Soviet Union, or at least that was the reason they gave.

But say the plan went ahead, things went smoothly and the entire brigade including its heavy weapons were dropped outside Warsaw and were able to join the battle.

Just how much of a fight would they have given the Germans and would it have changed anything major?
