red_amoeba SG

Tuki SG

lol pray u get posted to SIB or SC after your SOP…everyday wear civilian lol

Saint` SG

i m in mp rite now .. hmm .. can give u an insight on hws life in mp command .. as a trainee .. u r the lowest lifeform lol.. 5bx every morning n veri regimental .. u hav to march from place to place .. u cant play sports during ur trainee period .. n it is staying in .. onli bking out on wkends... u will hav lots of lectures everyday..ard 3 to 4 outfields in the whole course..basically the day will start ard 530 n end ard 7 or 8 most of the time .. n lights off ard 930 to 10++ depending on ur commanders.

after u pop from trainee phase .. there r some companies u can be posted to .. namely .. school .. hq .. apc .. zpc .. dog wing .. db .. gombak .. n other external units .. personally i m in zpc .. i can say life there is quite gd .. we do stay out .. zpc is enforcement company .. we go ard camps to raid n perform deserter ops .. n of cos we r in charge of mowbray station which is the linkup for all saf units sending in their personnel to db ..

apc is the company who specialise in precision drill n traffic platoon .. drill platoon basically will hav to go through OD ... orientation drills for abt 1 mth to get to flamilarise with the precision drill .. after which u will be activated for NDP , any special occasions , or even foreign VIP visits n u will be required to go IStana to perform some duties . Traffic platoon basically go for traffic rounds n oso required to go for ops n other stuffs

SIB is deal with mostly drug or special saf case which is quite classified too .

SB .. i nt quite sure what they really do ..

Dogwing basically u r trained to take care of the dogs .. n support zpc for camp raids as those dogs can be used to detect drugs n arms as some army personnel hid them .. dogs can sniff them out!

Gombak is something like guard duty ..

HQ n sch is more liek those clerk works ..

other external units .. there r alot .. u can get oversea attachment like going brunei for the whole of ur 2yrs -.- but mind u the pay is like .. 1.5k per mth .. of cos at brunei u sacrifice ur freedom n lifestyle in sg

Hope this piece of info gives u more on what u r going to experience in mp command ^^

gd4u SG

Wow, y do MPs need the overseas stint for ???

ToLox SG

Thanks man for the information, some of the stuff like the brunie stuff , i have never heard abt in MP before......But hows the selection like...after ur 2 mths, can you like choose where you want to go, or they just post u ....?

Saint` SG

overseas attachment is chosen during ur trainee course .. during my course .. there is 1 slot for brunei n some malay guy gt chosen over a few candidates due to the fact that he is a malay .. the commanders consider the fact tat malays communicate easier at brunei .. if i nt wrong there r post at taiwan oso .. jus depend on the availability of the post at the time u r posted in

Very Happy Hey im ex-mp too, ord-ed! I've seen so many mp juniors pass out lo. Mp after basic course is a very "xing jiao-lao jiao" environ, so beware. Anyway my batch get a slip of paper each to choose 1st chice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice of sub-unit to go to. Den all ur commanders will sit down, look at ur picture in the orbat chart and discuss where u shld go. But I heard subsequent batches of MP dont get to choose anymore. So depends on manpower requirement of various sub-unit. And wat I know just b4 i ord is APC nid ppl, so many of u will go there.

ya and I was frm gombak, u get to see all the big F of the SAF there. but gets very boring after a while. u get to learn how to serve the sometimes demanding staffs of mindef, as u man the MPcounters. The only perk is there u can get to see office girls Very Happy ...........

So where in MP command u wanna go to?

kiddyduck SG

MP Command is one of the best unit around...

Trainee, you will go for rigorious training and super high discipline course. Any trouble you give will make you OOC. Respect and greet all seniors if you want a good time.

You will learn MP wartime and peacetime roles and operations like body search and escorting, building PW cage and firing GPMG.... You will need to master your Military Law ( SAF ACT, CAP. 295 ).

Basically after you pass out, you will be posted to the different coys.

Some coys will need to work in mount dismount support styles, so forget your weekends.

The best coys around will be ZPC and DB.
ZPC is the most interesting and exciting coy as they went out for Ops and raids.

DB is the best place where you learn good interpersonal skills and there are many friendly MPs there! They organise a Happy Hour session every month!!

Enjoy your stay in MP Command... Its the best formation around... they organise runs every week to maintain your fitness level. Out-camp runs are also enjoyable as you go for runs in other places in Singapore!!

We always remember this: PRIDE, DISCIPLINE and HONOUR!!

BrUtUs SG

wat u wanna know? its all abt discipline and enduring... got a few coy u can go to after u pass out from the course like normal mata like tat... after tat is daily duties till u f off... but in the process might get bullied from lao jiao... lucky to no need chiong sua...

BrUtUs SG

only meant for either white horse or very lucky ppl...

STUU SG

if wear civilian means undercover mp rite? den go in public n catch those nsfs in uniform not behaving properly like smoking or hold galfren hand...

ijjit?

KoolKool SG

What’s this about not holding GF’s hands ? I thought the Army trying to blend in with society and encouraging soldiers to travel to and from home and office in uniform. Soldiers in uniform when out of camp should do what normal civilians do, walk casually, saying hello and waving hands, carry umbrella when it is raining. Of course, there are little bit of restrictions like no smoking while in uniform, to uphold some image.

will4 SG

I once caught by caught by an MP at a bus interchange for having the shoelace out from my boot.

STUU SG

KoolKool SG

MP just want to help you, in case you trip over your boot lace. Don't be too sensitive and we will all be OK.

waa u wan to mislead ppl ar.. db is by far the worst coy .. trust me .. i work in ZPC mowbray station n i wan to die already .. the system is mount dismount standby .. among P1,2,3 in zpc .. we r already considered mundane , no life , no joy .. imagine p2,3 go cohesion , fri half day off whilst performing the ever same duties is really really a pain in the ass . Nt 4getting we work section based , meaning 7men 1 spec roughly . This can lead to veri limited exposure to ppl .

Hwever compared to db , we r like heaven to them . Same system but harsher conditions , i would say it is a living hell . Moreover as saf is moving into 3G, manpower shifting n shortage is by far the most irritating problem . Working in section based enviroment means hell even 1 guy is missing from the post . Future mps do choose ur coy wisely if u hav a choice Laughing
