The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) will deploy in early 2023 a pair of its new emergency vehicles that will take its firefighting and rescue capabilities to new heights. READ MORE: str.sg/w9pD

Civil Defence have come a long way...
The modernisation from beginning the late 90s to now is impressive.
Lies again? Soccer Club Delicious Food
Zzz all these vehicles but where's the manpower? Those who know, knows.
Those who don't know, won't know!
Ya, the Civil Defense really come a long way. I remember during the 60~70s Kampong days, the CD was formed by villager volunteers on duty, with backets of sands and water and fire bells .....I don't remember there are water hoses. Now we have the motorbikes, ambulance, the fire engine at different parts of Singapore. Still we all must do our part to prevent unnecessary fire break out !
I remember back in the early 90s there are neighbourhood exercises where the adults will do rescue exercises , I don't suppose they have that now anymore ?
We can hv the best equipment but there r still limitations to save lives if many are trapped by cluttering in corridors over all HDB flats exceeding SCDF guidelines. Anyone in high post willing to solve this?
Fire on the 31st Floor: *I'm about to end this man's whole career*
Well then I pray for your safety hahaha
Burj khalifa: HAH!!
Just drive to the 2nd floor easy
Def should not be afraid of heights whoever is on that
Don’t buy non-local no safety mark electrical items, unless you want to risk being burnt to death or have 3rd degree burns and scars
Remember you generally fight high rise fires from inside the building so whilst these platforms are good for tactical options, they're not the primary method of fighting tower fires at all
One in punggol and one in kallang. What if got high rise fire in other parts of Singapore? How fast can the fire engine reach?
depends on the bustling city traffic...its only getting worse
Then u can prepare your insurance paper!
Not very fast. Didn’t you read the article? You get a F for reading. Do better next time k
Plane is faster lah🛬
@@jessicaregina1956 visit Singapore fire stations. Open to public from 9am-11am, to understand how it work.
But we have hdb of more than 30 storeys
Singaporeans never like to think about what worse can happen to them, but think the worse about others, especially those different than themselves ... Yet do they self-reflect about how the highest these ladders can go (90m?) but still build taller and taller until the people high up can't be reached (puns intended)...
If you want to feel really safe only live up to the 7th floor that is usually the max height that fire truck ladders can reach.
any flat above 10storeys unit owners should install fire sprinklers themselves
I want to feel even safer, can I stay next to the fire station?
If I want to feel safest can I stay under the sea?
Can I just become a mermaid and stay in water???????
@@jessicaregina1956 you have pineapple
This 30m fire fighter come to just … hmmm sarcastic to China Urumqi fire incident ?
woah so many high rank officer sit down there watch show hope they dun fall asleep
How does the SCDF extinguish super high rise building fire? say level 50 plus
You call in an orbital laser strike!
drones
You got one last chance: the wet rising mains. Try look for it!
Dry riser: a system of valves and pipe work which enables the fire service to pump water onto upper floors of a building. Wet riser: a system of valves and pipe work which is kept permanently charged with water, generally utilising pumps and tanks.
What are they going to do when the fire is at 91 meters high 🤣
Stand on a ladder
How about 95 meters high 🤣
From 30th floor, firefighters will walk up the stairs
helicopter
Yes, because Singapore have developed firefighter helos with side mounted firehose 🤣
Oh wow, is near my house 😩👏🤌
You are all not taking the account of winds.. is the boom stable enough to not shake when it’s that high? Will the operators be safe up high whilst wind is gusting. There’s a reason why CPL is deployed during house fires but never utilised
do you seriously think the engineers who designed this wouldn't take that and a thousand other factors into account?
@@aeris1109 I’m talking about the part where everyone thinks it will be deployed when a high rise fire occurs. Furthermore that’s the engineering safety side, SCDF has their protocols to operation as well.
It says 500kg weight limit. At 90m reach, that’s some serious steel. I won’t be surprised it cost a few million dollars. Of coz wind loads are considered in the design and have some safety factor to spare. Scania truck frames are the strongest in the truck industry. Scadanavian steel is naturally superior
Seems similar to a concrete pump truck... ...
Hope is not for wayang purpose. Lol.
How about 50 storey building?!
Dry riser: a system of valves and pipe work which enables the fire service to pump water onto upper floors of a building. Wet riser: a system of valves and pipe work which is kept permanently charged with water, generally utilising pumps and tanks.
What happen if at 50th floor high?
31 storey HDBs be like
During my time only have Scania R143EL Simon SS600 60M AP5
Bapak tinggi ah
HDB carpark cannot turn. Can karanguni already
i Had a certificate .MEDiC course . SCDF . Only
West Bengal fire and emergency services me bhi hai yeh,
currently alot of hdb flats built are 40 stories high ...
Wow very scary from such height
10 to 20 floors.. those above 20 good luck.
Good luck singaporeans --more hdb so more fire
Bad hearted
that's very true

PMDs left the chat ...
Pmds were never in the chat!
@@jessicaregina1956 theyre the main cause of fires today afterall..
oh boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can have great equipments and ambulances but are there enough good doctors in hospitals? Most of them comes from India. Local doctors are moving to private hospitals due to overwork load and long working hours. Our SG health care needs a major revamp
How did you arrive at this conclusion?
There needs to be firefighting facilities @ newer high rise HDB buildings that can reach up to over 30 or even 50 storeys high. Lacking firefighting facilities or even booster pumps to boost & increase water flow capacity for putting out fire at such tall buildings only puts safety @ risk.
anything above 10floors better fix their own fire sprinklers in their units
Sure, and is there any such facilities for this anywhere in the world 🤣
@@jessicaregina1956 Singapore should be the one setting the standards & framework, and not the other way around. Singapore prides itself in taking a proactive approach & not a reactive approach, in turn setting global standards for other countries to follow.
Anyhow, your account was just created yesterday, probably just to stir up trouble & being an anon/bot.
Just get drones to do the work. Im still waiting for the day when drones can replace a good part of civil and emergency services
@@za7v9ier 😂i just love it when all you people do is check out “date created” , it doesnt change the fact that the point is relevant, there do not exist any facilities for extreme high rise fires anywhere in the world so why should we take the lead?
DONT BUILD
Got fire? Just don't build.
Got homeless? Just build.
People not interested go there. 🙄🤣 they prefer game , clothes , supercar and more at expo
Good luck singaporeans can only afford hdb flat
You will be shocked to know high rise HDB and high rise condo do have similar, if not equal, firefighting systems.
@@Koh-Wei-Jian i am so shocked
learn from china.
thanks government
