Dear All


I believed alot of you doesn't know how to wear your badges and seriously your beret is badly season. I wonder did the seniors pass down the correct values ?

I will conduct the uniform inspection this Saturday, PL please ensure your members' uniform is well present. Please refer to the attach files and understand it.


Lastly belt buckle should be tight and not loose.


P.S: Iftikhaar,we spoke please settle the iron, i going to show you guys how to season your beret!

Please kindly fill up the form and submit to your Patrol Leader not later by 14 August 2010. TL , please collect all and pass it to me on 14 August.

Dear All


During the submission of NYAA, I discovered few mistakes by you guys, which are not accepted. Please take it seriously and prevent such thing happen in future for any submission.


a) Wrote the entries in ‘RED’ Ink. (RUDE)
b) Entries not in chronological order, very untidy
c) Rubbish entries which don’t contribute to the fact.
d) Year not stated
e) Missing NRIC no
f) Doesn’t meet the requirement.


Learn from it and don’t make the same error. All TL, SPLs and PLs each deducted 200 points for failing to ensure. On the same note, TL and SPLs awarded points still goes to their patrol until 31 Dec 2010. To be fair, deduction should be also counted.

Vet and ensure before submit. Complacency doesn’t contribute to the better of excellence.

Bear = -200
Tiger = -200
Elephant = -400
Lion = -400
Jackal = - 200
Panther = -400
