SINGAPORE – The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) will sound an “Important Message” signal through the islandwide Public Warning System (PWS) network of sirens on Feb 15 at 6.20pm.

The signal will also sound for 20 seconds on all smartphones with the SGSecure mobile app that have the app’s notification and alert settings enabled, said the SCDF on Feb 13. This will be followed by a brief text message on the PWS sounding.

Upon hearing the signal, members of the public should tune in to any local radio station or Mediacorp TV channel to learn more about it.

The SCDF said they need not be alarmed by the minute-long sounding exercise.

The broadcast exercise is held to mark Total Defence Day, said the SCDF. It is also part of the agency’s efforts to familiarise the public with the PWS signals and to raise awareness on how people should react upon hearing them.
