But what is total defence?
Introduced in 1984, the concept of Total Defence was adapted from the experiences of countries like Switzerland and Sweden. As a young nation with a small population and conscript armed forces, we needed to draw on the different strengths and abilities of our community to augment our defence capability.
Total Defence has five aspects – Military Defence, Civil Defence, Economic Defence, Social Defence and psychological Defence. These five aspects represent the key factors of society. They also help Singaporeans understand how they can be involved. When we take national service seriously, volunteer in civil defence exercises, help build a strong economy, strengthen community ties with one another regardless of race or religion, and stay committed to defend the country, we are doing something in every sector of our society to strengthen Singapore's resilience as a nation.
