He was CDF before leaving SAF.

 

Confirmed liao? No news outlets reported it - and no press release from SMRT?

 

Edit - oh okay ST online reported it.

President of Train division only right? SMRT President sounds weird as an appointment.

I'm sure he can activate the whole army and hand them cable ties when there is any breakdown. Fasterer and bestester than activating technicians.
