James M Dorsey S Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore PUBLICATIONS 155 Recent Publications by HT officers HOME TEAM JOURNAL 3 Foreword In today’s volatile, uncertain, complex and ambigious (VUCA) environment, leaders need to transform in order to lead effectively. First coined as an acronym in 1991 by the U.S. Army War College to characterise a global environment fraught with turbulence that its students would face as they took on increasingly strategic leadership positions, VUCA as a concept has gained new relevance to evoke the leadership skillsets required to successfully navigate an unpredictable world. Here at the Home Team Academy (HTA), we take pride in playing our part in developing the Home Team’s leaders and ensuring that their training and learning is also transformative. To meet evolving learning needs, we drive the implementation of innovative training technologies, upskill our Home Team trainers to become leading specialists, and partner both local and international academic and industry experts in delivering our leadership programmes. These are just a handful of the ways HTA continuously improves our training and learning efforts to support our leaders, and the Home Team itself, in our transformation journey. Continuing the conversation on transformation and leadership, we asked Commissioner of Police Hoong Wee Teck what drives him in The Leadership Interview. CP Hoong speaks with an authenticity that comes from practising what he believes in. In this first interview he has given since becoming CP in 2015, he talks to Journal Editor Susan Sim about the lessons he has learnt from the cases he has investigated over more than three decades of fighting crime, the ethos of public service that drive him, and the professional excellence that he demands of his officers. The Singapore Police Force may be 200 years old this year and enjoy the highest level of public trust in the world, but for CP Hoong, there is no room for complacency and living on past glories. I agree with him that good leaders must not only care for their people, they must also be fair and guided by moral values. Leaders like him play an important role in shaping organisational culture, especially as the ongoing transformation of the Home Team’s capabilities requires fundamental changes in workplace learning. This is a point that Deputy Secretary (International and Training) Raja Kumar illustrates vividly in his essay on “Building a Training and Learning Ecosystem in the Home Team”. DS Raja began the journey of transforming training across the Home Team by changing mindsets and leveraging technology when he was Chief Executive of HTA from 2014 to September 2018. He initiated the appointment of Chief Learning Officers (CLOs) in each Home Team Department. As a recent Harvard Business Review article reminds us, CLOs in dynamic organisations are now responsible not just for training, but are also “embracing a more powerful role in which they reshape capabilities and organizational culture”.1 CLOs are the transformers who help their organisations and employees thrive during time of rapid changes. The articles in this issue of the Home Team Journal also reflect the emerging threats challenging modern societies. As criminal syndicates, terrorist groups, protesters, and even domestic voyeurs and cyber vigilantes leverage technology and social media to commit crime, recruit and fund-raise for violent causes, rally flash mobs, or interfere with law enforcement, how do we gear up to deal with such threats? For a start, we can increase our knowledge of the forces and fault-lines that drive human behaviour, emerging technological trends, and the strategies that have worked for other societies. 4 Issue No. 9 • February 2020 Some of the articles in this issue were inspired by recent news headlines.

  • Community Policing in Singapore
    COMMUNITY POLICING IN SINGAPORE by Mark Low Jian Neng A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Geography) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (VANCOUVER) April 2012 ©Mark Low Jian Neng, 2012 ABSTRACT This thesis is devoted towards unpacking how community policing has been managed as a state discourse by the Singapore Police Force. Firstly, community policing is located within the historical context of a modernising Singapore. This begins with the need for crime prevention that was disseminated through decentralised neighbourhood police posts in the 1980s. With economic restructuring in the 1990s, community policing was rescaled to meet the changing demography of the population. Following an enhanced deployment of counter-terrorism discourse in the wake of 9/11, community policing was re-invented as part of a (re)bordering strategy to safeguard territorial sovereignty and social cohesion. Secondly, the methodology of community policing is visualised through the changing frames of the state-produced docu- drama, Crime Watch. As a television programme that has consistently raked in high viewership numbers for 25 years, Crime Watch texts deserve their fair share of critical scrutiny to reveal the means of community engagement by the state police. Thirdly, the personal networks of Volunteer Special Constables are studied for the insights that they can reveal into the work of policing one’s community. Personal interviews with sixteen volunteers provide the empirical data for analysis. Volunteers have committed much time and effort into performing the work of volunteer police officers. Mediating the boundaries between the police and the public, these volunteers translate community policing into practice in complicated ways that have not been adequately documented.

  • Wanting, Not Waiting
    WINNERSdateline OF THE OVERSEAS PRESS CLUB AWARDS 2011 Wanting, Not Waiting 2012 Another Year of Uprisings SPECIAL EDITION dateline 2012 1 letter from the president ne year ago, at our last OPC Awards gala, paying tribute to two of our most courageous fallen heroes, I hardly imagined that I would be standing in the same position again with the identical burden. While last year, we faced the sad task of recognizing the lives and careers of two Oincomparable photographers, Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros, this year our attention turns to two writers — The New York Times’ Anthony Shadid and Marie Colvin of The Sunday Times of London. While our focus then was on the horrors of Gadhafi’s Libya, it is now the Syria of Bashar al- Assad. All four of these giants of our profession gave their lives in the service of an ideal and a mission that we consider so vital to our way of life — a full, complete and objective understanding of a world that is so all too often contemptuous or ignorant of these values. Theirs are the same talents and accomplishments to which we pay tribute in each of our awards tonight — and that the Overseas Press Club represents every day throughout the year. For our mission, like theirs, does not stop as we file from this room. The OPC has moved resolutely into the digital age but our winners and their skills remain grounded in the most fundamental tenets expressed through words and pictures — unwavering objectivity, unceasing curiosity, vivid story- telling, thought-provoking commentary.

Y. Low Department of Sociology, National University of Singapore, Singapore, Singapore ABSTRACT The Nepalese Gurkhas have often been regarded as brave warriors in the scheme of British military recruitment since the 1800s. Today, their descendants have settled in various parts of South East and South Asia. How can one conceive of a Gurkha diaspora, and what are the Gurkhas and their families’ experiences of belonging in relation to varied migratory routes? This paper locates Gurkhas as migrants by deliberating upon the connection between military service and migration paths. I employ the lens of methodological transnationalism to elucidate how the Gurkha diaspora is both constructed and experienced. Diasporic consciousness and formation undergo modification alongside subsequent cycles of migration for different members of a diaspora.

  • DEATH PENALTY and DRUG CRIMES Detailed Factsheet 13Th World Day Against the Death Penalty
    DEATH PENALTY AND DRUG CRIMES Detailed Factsheet 13th World Day against the Death Penalty On 10 October 2015, the World Coalition Against the Death Penalty along with abolitionist activists worldwide will mark the 13th World Day against the Death Penalty by drawing attention to the death penalty for drug crimes. While opposing the death penalty in all circumstances, abolitionists are also committed to seeing existing international human rights standards implemented. Among these is the restriction of crimes punishable by death for the most serious crimes- intentional killing. Background Thirty-three countries and territories 1 provide the death penalty, at least in name, for drug smuggling, according to Harm Reduction International, a drug-focused NGO and a member of the World Coalition. Most are either in Asia or in the Middle East, and in most of them executions are extremely rare. In some the death penalty for drug crimes is just symbolic. Only in seven countries are drug offenders known to be routinely executed. This list has for some time included China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Malaysia and Singapore . Indonesia is now included following a number of executions in 2015. 2 Throughout most of the 1980s and 1990s, the number of countries enacting capital drug laws rose dramatically. In 1979, about ten countries had the death penalty for drugs. By 1985, that number had risen to twenty-two and by 2000, to thirty-six. Today, the number has gone down to thirty-three countries. The reason this rise was so lamentable was that it corresponded with the remarkable global trend towards the abolition of the death penalty 3.

  • Evolving Value and Purpose of Policing ‘Inward’ to Address Internal Management Issues11
    POLICING FOR A SAFER WORLD Singapore 2012 ................................................................................................................... ABOUT THIS BOOK Pearls in Policing 2012 POLICING FOR A SAFER WORLD It is widely recognised by top level law enforcement executives that it is necessary to actively engage in international cooperation to develop effective strategies to best position law enforcement in the future. The need for commissioners and chief executive officers from around the world to jointly identify risks, threats and opportunities as well as research new ideas and realities for policing led to the launch of the Pearls in Policing initiative in 2007. The only global think-tank within policing of its kind. Under the responsibility of the Pearls Curatorium, the Dutch based Pearls in Policing Secretariat had sole charge of the organisation of the Pearls conferences in 2007, 2008 and 2009. In 2010, the Australian Federal Police hosted the fourth Pearls in Policing conference in Sydney. The fifth conference in 2011 was again hosted in the Netherlands and the 2012 conference took place in Singapore co-hosted by the Singapore Police Force (SPF) and the Pearls Curatorium. This publication is a record of the events and discussions that took place at the Singapore conference ‘Policing for a Safer World’.
