The
Grup Gerak Khas (
English:
Special Service Group) is a special forces regiment of the
Malaysian Army which conducts special operations missions for the
Malaysian government, such as direct action, unconventional warfare, intelligence, counter-terrorism, and sabotage gathering. It is the administrative and operational group to which the three regiments of the
Rejimen Gerak Khas and its supporting units are subordinated.
While the GGK traces its origins to
1965 and the post
Indonesia-Malaysia confrontation, they gained fame and recognition worldwide after successfully pacifying a communist insurgency in the jungles of Malaysia during the
Communist Insurgency War.
21 Gerup Gerak Khas is commanded by a
Brigadier General and is currently located at
Iskandar Camp, in
Mersing,
Johor comprising 11
Gerak Khas Regiment tasked to counter-terrorism, 21
Commando Regiment and 22 Commando Regiment. The three regiments' tasks are guerrilla/anti-guerrilla warfare, escape and evasion, subversion, sabotage, counter terrorism, asymmetric warfare and their most highly regarded expertise-- jungle warfare.
The commando units were then redesignated and 1st
Special Service Regiment became
21st Regiment Para Commando and 2 Special Service Regiment became
22nd Regiment Para Commando. Further to this development, the designation for the Para Commando Regiment was changed to the Commando Regiment. The 3 regiments again had a name change, becoming known as 11th
CRW Regiment,
21st Commando Regiment and
22nd Commando Regiment.
Sungai Udang Camp was certified as the '
Home of the
Commandos'. Its achievements attracted many volunteers from other corps.
Lieutenant Colonel Borhan bin
Ahmad was the first administrator of MSSG responsible for expanding the
Special Operations Forces.
Various activities including sports and other
Army activities were organised to get the
SOF involved.
Joint programs are conducted with other countries such as
Britain,
New Zealand,
Australia and the
United States of America to improve knowledge and to get new experience in certain aspects of SOF operations
.
In the Third Malaysia
Plan and the expansion of the
Armed Forces,
Special Warfare Training Centre (SWTC) was established on
1 August 1976. The
function is to fulfill the training requirements for the Special Forces
Team. After the establishment of SWTC, the
Second Regiment of Special Service was established on 1 January
1977. All the three units were based in Sungai Udang,
Malacca. In
1979, SWTC was fully established with
Colonel Borhan bin Ahmad as the Commandant.
The commando units were then redesignated and 1st Special Service Regiment became 21st Regiment Para Commando and 2 Special Service Regiment became 22nd Regiment Para Commando. On 1
April 1981, the 12th and 11th Special Service Regiments were formed to provide support to 21st Commando and 22nd Commando. Further to this development, the designation for the Para Commando Regiment was changed to the Commando Regiment. The 3 regiments again had a name change, becoming known as 11th CRW Regiment, 21st Commando Regiment and 22nd Commando Regiment.
