Interactive Battlefield Trail

The Interactive Battlefield Trail takes you through the many icons and monuments of modern-day Singapore, all unique in their own way! We’ll show you how they’ve helped transform Singapore into the country we know today, and their relation to the five pillars of Total Defence- psychological defence, Social Defence, Civil Defence, and Military Defence. Together these approaches allow Singapore to tackle threats and are an integral aspect of Singapore’s prosperity and success as a nation today. As you embark on this trail, you’ll see their relevance in the everyday lives of Singaporeans and learn how you too can play your part.
