Jp66 5th Gear March 1, 2012 Share March 1, 2012 (edited) [sorry! Title should be Mcfer, let's join SPF] My dear Diploma mcfer, sign on for 2 years, $10K is yours http://www.asiaone.com/News/Latest%2BNews/...301-331081.html Diploma holders to get $10k incentive for joining police Diploma holders who intend to join the Singapore Police Force (SPF) will have more incentive to do so with the implementation of a $10,000 sign-on bonus. They can also look forward to a starting salary of $2,370 which is $100 more than current ones. Not leaving out existing police officers, Second Minister for Trade and Industry S. Iswaran announced today in Parliament that more senior officer positions will be created within SPF to provide more opportunities for career advancements. Selected frontline officers will also receive a $200 allowance per month on top of their current salaries. Also speaking in Parliament today, Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean said that the monetary incentives, which have been in place since February 1, 2012, will help with recruiting more officers. Speaking after DPM Teo, Minister Iswaran announced a slew of changes to SPF's policing model Community Policing System (COPS), to address anticipated changes in Singapore's security needs in the coming years. The changes include increasing the police force by 450 more officers, introducing two new units at each neighbourhood police centres (NPCs) and the opening of two more NPCs in Punggol and Woodlands West late this year. Mr Iswaran said the officers, to be recruited over the next few years, will supplement two new departments within each of the 35 NPCs. In an attempt to broaden and deepen officers' involvement with the community, the current Community Liaison and Preparedness team will be expanded into a Community Policing Unit (CPU). Officers of this larger team will be assigned to specific beats, and will conduct foot and bicycle patrols to build closer relationships with community stakeholders. Further to this, a Crime Strike Force will be introduced at each NPC as currently; crime fighting teams are largely restricted to the six police divisional headquarters. With the introduction of the strike forces, Mr Iswaran pointed out that the police's crime-fighting capabilities will be brought closer to the community. He added that officers will be more familiar with the local terrain and hence more effective in fighting crime. Bukit Merah East NPC and Tampines NPC will be the first NPCs to be reorganised in May 2012, and the rollout to all NPCs is expected to be completed by end-2015. Leveraging more on technology, Mr Iswaran also announced that police cameras will be installed in all of Singapore 10,000 carparks and HDB blocks by end-2016. The cameras will be set up at strategic points of ground floor lift lobbies and staircase landings to cover key entrances and exits. The recorded footage from these cameras can help post-incident investigations. A pilot programme will begin in May 2012 covering 300 HDB blocks and multi-storey car parks at selected locations which revealed at a later date.

MacDuck 1st Gear March 1, 2012 Share March 1, 2012 I think they are short of manpower ... I heard from a property agent that Singapore prison service provides housing for their staff. I initially though that Compass Green along Tanah Merah Besar Road is a new condo development but was told its actually staff housing for prison staff. They even have penthouse!
