SCDF will sound alarms this
Tuesday
Don't be alarmed when you hear the loud sound of sirens in the
air on Tuesday next week, lasting about a minute.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force will be sounding the Public
Warning System islandwide at around noon that day.
You will hear the "Important Message" signal and after doing so,
you can immediately tune in to any local FM radio station to listen
to a special info-mercial broadcast to learn more about the
sirens.
The warning system is a network of sirens placed at strategic
points throughout the island to warn the public of imminent threats
that could endanger lives and property.
The sounding is part of SCDF's continuous effort to familiarise
the public with the signals, also to raise awareness on what they
should when they hear them.
You can find out more about the signals and other emergency
procedures by logging in to the SCDF website at
www.scdf.gov.sg.
