What’s in for Life

May 22, 2008 By: darylim Category: events, life in blue 5 Comments →

It’s almost 6 months that i have been under the Enlistment Act serving my “term”. Well, now i have truly tasted what it feels like, when other people say that serving NS is just another 2years that you waste your time, doing things that are not your cup of tea.

Hearing this obviously is not good news. Well, i’ve got posting which apparently ain’t to my liking. I got posted to the charge office in alpha division though. Which i will be expecting to meet loads of criminals everyday, doing escort duties and such.

Hopefully i will get to experience more and learn more stuffs until i ORD which is like not very soon.

Currently attending the PIC course, which will end on Monday. Well, to a certain extent i like attending course is that it’s super slack and all we have to do is sit and listen, though it can be boring at times.

For the past one month, I have been opscon-ed. Shan’t elaborate so much, but my job is pretty much to prevent MSk from fleeing, since he’s so much on the run now.

What i can say after a month would be that division life and training command life is vastly different. What we learnt in theory might not come in handy when dealing in real life situations. More practical skills and tactics should then be applied to prevent the situation/issue to aggravate. Many of such things we do not actually learn during lessons, it’s more of realizing and learning on the way when we actually deal with it.

Man on ground is indeed the one that does the most work, sad to say though.

I realised i haven’t posted any of me in Police Uniform though being in the force for almost half a year.

Here are some, and the others taken at my point where i was stationed for 1 month.

I must special mention this dog. His name is Johnny. We believed that he was abandoned by his owner, as it is able to interact very well with human beings, esp POs. Hence it will follow us during our rovings, making us look like K9 unit somehow. It helps “guard” our post by sitting and sleeping in front of it though. Pretty lazy i must say, but its really obedient.

Well, if based on these pictures you can decipher where my post is.. Good for you then.

The next phase of police life is going to start, gear up and get ready to give it all..!

Juvenile Delinquent - Teenage

May 02, 2008 By: darylim Category: life in blue 5 Comments →

Wearing the blue uniform makes me have a different look and view of how teenage nowadays behave and act.

It’s rather shocking that such things are actually are happening and this really reflects on their parental upbringing and school’s teaching. On the bigger picture, the evolution of the whole society; where they’ve grown to become much more daring and oblivious to the people and things around them.

Well, i’m not trying to say that during my time i was a good boy the follow strict rules and such. But never have i tried to punk around with the hands of the law.

Just a few days ago, me and my partner came across these group of kids in school uniform sitting at the parapet near the beach. We decided to move in and conduct some checks on them.

Due to the landscape of the place, it is very easy to spot POs patrolling, especially in our distinct blue uniform and equipments.

So, when they saw us approaching. One guy stood up and walked further up the parapet to sit down.  So we started asking them what are they doing here, in school uniform and sorts. They seem to be a little defensive about their actions.

When my partner asked ” got smoke anot?” One of them replied almost immediately.

“we got no cigarette.” 

Such answers only lead one to more suspicion to whether to search their possession.

After taking down particulars, we got them to leave the place. We comb the surrounding a little and realised that there is a pack of Menthol Lights in the bushes. I went down and retrieve and there were still like 5-6 sticks left inside.

It’s quite obvious that they threw it there, in fear that we search their bags to finding contraband items.

It appears that earlier on the guy that walked further up threw the pack of cigarette there.

Those teenagers were only 14years old.

What is the world coming to..?
