    • Hi everyone, can anyone share how was the training like for the duration of 6mths? I would like to know more about it so that I can get myself prepared before enlistment. Thank you very much from sharing :) Have a great day ahead!

    • Police Training involves two components:

      1) Physical Training (Drill, self-defense, swimming, arm-tactics, IPPT, etc)

      2) Law stuff

      If you're physically fit when you were in school (e.g. at least a Bronze in NAPFA/IPPT), then the physical part would be a breeze.

      Law can be tuff for those who are weak in English but don't worry, somehow, you'll pass :p 

      Having a positive attitude helps too because the things that make your life in HTA fun or hellish depends a lot on your squad-mates. 

      Need a bit of luck too on the kind of trainers you'll be getting. In general, most trainers are bastards at the beginning (1st month) but they'll slowly become friendly towards the end. Most of us don't want to have a bad reputation because words spread easily in SPF. Even after 6 years later, people can still recognise me as an FI when I go for reservist. 

      In summary, just go there with an open and positive mindset. It's bad enough that we have to do NS... hence, might as well make the best of it while you're serving :)
