Perajurit Tanah Air Explained

"Perajurit Tanah Air" ("Soldiers of the Motherland"), also known by its incipit "Inilah Barisan Kita" ("Here We Are Standing United"), is a Malaysian patriotic song composed by Indonesian musician Saiful Bahri, who composed various state songs of Malaysia. The song extols soldiers' readiness to fight and die.

The song found renewed popularity among Malaysians in the wake of the 2013 Lahad Datu standoff and the COVID-19 pandemic as a song dedicated to the frontliners.[1] It is also sung by Ultras Malaya supporters of the Malaysian national football team.
