    No Time, So My Wife Gave Birth At Home With Help Of Very Pro SCDF Officers

    I would like to convey my appreciation and heartfelt gratitude to the paramedic officers from Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) Ambulance AB 113 namely: Prm kitshan (officer in charge), Medic Shafiq rhymia and medic Samo Iqbal.

    Officer in charge Kitshan had delivered my baby boy in my own house this morning at approximately 8.25am. She was very experienced, composed and exceedingly professional in the delivery of my 2nd baby boy. I hereby pay kudos to her and pay utmost respect to her and her teammates for their assistance.

    My wife and baby are well taken care of and in good hands. SCDF indeed train their staffs well. Their performance were remarkable and my family felt that we were in good hands under the care of Officer Kitshan.

    My wife and baby are now in the hospital resting. I hereby wish to send my gratefulness to the SCDF officers especially officer Kitshan for being there for us.

    We understand that SCDF doesn’t allow any hamper or gift as appreciation so hereby we can only express our respect to you via email and Facebook. Thank you yet again.

    Please help to tag, Prm kitshan (officer in charge), Medic Shafiq rhymia and medic Samo Iqbal if you happen to know them. From the bottom of my heart I wish to thank them once again. An official letter of appreciation had been sent to your Quality Sevice Officer Colonel Ng for the tremendous effort rendered.

    LTC Shaiful Herman, Kuntum Safari, Antara 181 Penerima Biasiswa Tajaan MHA

    Seramai 181 pegawai Home Team menerima Anugerah Tajaan Kementerian Ehwal dalam Negeri (MHA) bagi melanjutkan pengajian di peringkat Sarjana Muda dan Pos siswazah.

    Anugerah itu disampaikan oleh Menteri Negara Kanan MHA, Desmond Lee,dalam satu majlis pada Jumaat lalu (29 Julai).

    Leftenan Kolonel Shaiful Herman Shali, 32 tahun, antara penerima Anugerah Tajaan Program Pos Siswazah Sepenuh Masa (Luar Negara) tahun ini.

    Beliau kini bertugas sebagai Penolong Pengarah di Jabatan Pengawalan Bahan Berbahaya, SCDF.

    Dengan tajaan yang diterima, pemuda berusia 32 tahun itu akan mendalami lagi kepakarannya itu dengan melanjutkan pengajian ke peringkat Sarjana dalam bidang Penyiasatan Kebakaran di Universiti Central Lancashire di Britain.

    “Ini merupakan satu kepakaran yang penting bagi SCDF kerana apa juga insiden kebakaran yang kita alami, kita perlu mencari sumber dan puncanya. Jadi saya harap saya akan membawa manfaat juga kepada SCDF setelah saya melalui program ini,” kata beliau.

    Cik Kuntom Safari pula menerima Anugerah Tajaan Program Sarjana Muda Sepenuh Masa dan akan melanjutkan pengajiannya dalam bidang Perhubungan Antarabangsa di Pendidikan Global SIM – Universiti London.

    Ini bukanlah kali pertama wanita berusia 42 tahun ini, menerima tajaan MHA.

    Pada 2012, Cik Kuntom menerima Anugerah Tajaan Program Diploma Separuh Masa dan dengan tajaan kedua itu, impiannya untuk menggenggam segulung ijazah mungkin menjadi satu kenyataan.

    “Untuk melanjutkan pengajian saya ke peringkat universiti adalah salah satu impian saya. Saya sangat bersyukur kerana diberi peluang kedua oleh pihak MHA untuk meningkatkan lagi sijil pengajian saya, dari peringkat diploma ke peringkat universiti,” ujar beliau.

    Beliau berharap pencapaiannya itu dapat dijadikan contoh, terutama kepada anak-anaknya, bahawa usia bukanlah penghalang untuk terus mengejar ilmu.
