TOTAL DEFENSE

WHAT IS TOTAL DEFENCE?
Total defence is just around the corner and it is important for us to know what it is all about. One of the five aspects of total defence is military defence. It is an essential aspect of total defence as it ensures the safety of Singapore citizens in war times. Civil Defence is another aspect of total defence as it is about taking care of your family, friends, and people around you in times of crisis. Economic defence, the third aspect of total defence, is about people upgrading their skills and knowledge to stay employed in this rapidly advancing island. Another aspect of total defence it social defence. This refers to when people of different races stick together and live in harmony, looking out for each other in tough times. The last aspect of total defence is psychological defence. It is put in place when Singaporeans are loyal to their country. It is also bout having the resilience to break through tough times such as economic crisis which we aer facing right now.

WHAT I WANT TO DEFEND?
Among all the things I have, I will definitely value and defend my loving and caring family. They have been there for me when I needed them the most and have supported my my whole life. In my opinion my parents ,who ensure a good and strong education, deserve more than just money- something which money cannot buy; love, care and concern.
I will also defend my muti-racial friends who have always been willing to lend a helping hand when I am in need. They are also ever-ready to listen to my problems and help me resolve them with an effective solution.
