[b]6 SIR Turns
Operational
Our Army has taken a decisive step forward in its transformation
journey. To create better mission responsiveness and a
high-readiness core, the 6th Battalion Singapore Infantry Regiment
(6 SIR) was designated to be the first Protection of Installations
(POI) battalion, vigilant round the clock. A new chapter in 6 SIRs
history began as the unit held its turn-operational parade at Maju
Camp on 19 November.
At the parade, Chief of Army, MG Desmond Kuek and many senior
commanders witnessed as Commander of 2nd Peoples Defence Force, BG
Tay Swee Yee, declared 6 SIR operational. The soldiers of 6 SIR
also put up an impression display of their operational proficiency
acquired after months of specialised training.
6 SIR will work round the clock and enhance security at four key
civilian installations Changi Airport, Jurong Island, Sembawang
Wharf and Exxon-Mobil. The men, rigorously trained in rules of
engagement, will have the capability to deal with higher security
threats when needed.
Commander of 6 SIR, MAJ Kong Kam Yean, said, This will be a new
challenge for the battalion. We do not have guiding posts to look
for, our enemies will always have new tactics. We must learn to
leap ahead, and be able to fight tomorrows war with tomorrows
strategy and tomorrows tactics. That is what we are trained to do,
and Singaporeans can now be more assured knowing there is a
dedicated force that can carry out its mission of protecting
installations well.
