SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN) A strong and effective Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) is the Republic’s most important insurance policy in an increasingly dangerous and troubled world, said Prime Minister Lawrence Wong.
And national service is the backbone of this, he told a group of about 420 recruits, trainers and staff during a visit to the Basic Military Training Centre (BMTC) on Aug 27.
