Firstly, the so-called 'Malaysian Air Force' is called (correctly) the Royal Malaysian Air Force (TUDM or RMAF), not just Malaysian Air Force.

Secondly, the Royal Malaysian Air Force doesn't have the rank of ACP. That's a police rank denoting 'Assistant Commissioner of Police'.
Thus, we can conclude that the so-called 'Malaysian Air Force' mentioned by Mashor Jaini is actually the Air Wing of the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM).

This bloke doesn't even know the difference between the TUDM and PDRM - it's quite frightening.
