Together, We Keep Singapore Strong: Total Defence 40 Dynamic Defence Display

To mark 40 years of Total Defence, NDP 2024 will feature the inaugural Dynamic Defence Display at the Padang, with the segment named “Together, We Keep Singapore Strong”. To extend the experience to more Singaporeans, it will be expanded to the waters at the Marina Bay area. The TD40 D3 will emphasise the importance of all six pillars of Total Defence – Military, Civil, Economic, Social, Digital and Psychological – through multimedia films and live-action sequences. It aims to impress upon Singaporeans that everyone has a part to play in supporting the different pillars of Total Defence.

The TD40 D3 will comprise four parts, simulating threats and disruptions across the air, land, sea, digital and civil domains. The segment will involve 40 assets and over 400 participants and supporting personnel from the Singapore Army, Republic of Singapore Navy, Republic of Singapore Air Force, Digital and Intelligence Service, Singapore Police Force and Singapore Civil Defence Force. For the first time, national water agency PUB will be part of the display to demonstrate the provision of temporary water supply during disruptions, highlighting the resilience of our water supply system. The TD40 D3 will also see the inaugural participation of the Singapore Red Cross, emphasising the role of our community in responding to disruptions and crises. Together, the diverse group will demonstrate their coordinated efforts and showcase their readiness to respond to various threats and disruptions, safeguarding Singapore across all six pillars of Total Defence.
