Project Guardian

Project Guardian is a public-private partnership to enhance the skills capabilities of private security personnel to augment the police in mitigating a national crisis. It aims to encourage many agencies to pledge their support and assist the authorities in fight against terrorism.

The aim of Project Guardian is:


 * Raise awareness and seek solutions to current terrorist and crime issues;
 * Share and gather intelligence and information;
 * Build and maintain effective working relationships;
 * Maintain public trust and confidence through extended security presence
 * Facilitate community ownership in security especially in the immediate response to crisis

Under the PG scheme, SPF will collaborate with private security agencies in various places to reach out to security personnel, and they were given opportunity to attend workshops and participate in ground deployment exercises to react to terrorist scenarios or mock terrorist scenarios.

Equipped with the necessary knowledge and a vigilant mindset, these security personnel are thus able to provide the necessary support functions effectively during crisis:


 * Evacuation
 * Cordon Support
 * Crowd Control
 * Traffic Diversion
 * Emergency Communications
