Our Mechanized Warriors - SAF Terrex

Gone are the days whereby our infantry troopers have to march miles before engaging their enemy. By the time they get to the battle zone, they are already tired.

Welcome the Terrex.  Equally important is the networked battlefield management system.

Part 2


I think the Terrex is a real force multiplier.  All the best to our infantry soldiers.  Thanks for keeping us safe.

In case you are wondering, Singapore built these vehicles ourselves.  Check out the next two videos for a documentary by Singapore Technologies.

Hans @ Chevrons (SAF Warrant Officers and Specialists Club)

Hans @ Chevrons

The Chevrons is the Singapore Armed Forces Club for Warrant Officers and Specialists, located along Boon Lay road near Jurong East, IMM Building.  Their website is - http://www.chevrons.org.sg/

The club is open to public, well at least the public areas like restaurants are opened to public. There is a Hans cafe and eatery located on site.   Hans is a traditional Hainanese eatery, with outlets all over Singapore island.   The outlet at Chevrons is large and spacious.

Hans serves a mixture of chinese and western food, at reasonable prices.

Here are some specials available.

The counter where you place your orders.  They will give you a buzzer which will buzz when your order is ready.

I was here on a lazy afternoon.  It was tea time for me and I decided to get some coffee (feeling sleepy!) as well as a sandwich.  You can see the prices in the receipt below.

That was my Kopi-Si.  Good taste.

They had a machine selling speciality coffees, however, it wasn't in use.  Given the price different, I'm perfectly fine with my kopi-si.

Here was my sandwich. Freshly prepared, toasted wholemeal bread, tasted awesome!


Here is the Sandwich menu.  All freshly prepared.  I did not see that they had any pre-packed sandwiches.


Good coffee, great sandwich.  A very good experience for tea.

 Happy reading!
