Guided Walking

Tour Apart from an intriguing storyline for each tour, our guides deliver content through the use of visual aids such as photos, videos and maps. Participants will be engaged in two-way interaction with our guides through quizzes and experiential activities (e.g. hands-on cultural activities, food sampling) to reinforce their understanding and learning of NE messages.

Learning Objective / Total Defence Pillars

For servicemen to:
1. Understand the importance of racial and religious harmony in Singapore and realize that this sense of tolerance and integration was already present since the early days.

2. Get a sense of the “Kampong Spirit” that has characterized so much of the social and community interactions in Singapore. See how this is still relevant today, especially in the technology age when many polar influences threaten the social fabric of Singapore.

3. Get acquainted with Singapore’s former royal family, and the royal compound they lived in. Find out their contributions to the local community, and see the efforts placed in conservation of heritage buildings.

Aspect of Total Defence:
1. Social Defence - Singaporeans of all races and religions living and working in harmony and helping fellow Singaporeans.
2. Psychological Defence - Having pride in and being loyal and committed to our country, and having the will, resolve and resilience to overcome challenges.
