Public Warning System (Singapore)

The Public Warning System is a network of civil defense sirens installed by the Singapore Civil Defence Force on over 2,000 strategic points in Singapore to warn Singaporeans of impending dangers and air raids. Thus far, the siren network has only been used for occasional public awareness drills, monthly noon chimes and for commemorating the island's Total Defence (February 15) and Civil Defence Days (September 15). It was used to mark a minute's silence nationwide on the evening of 29 March 2015, commemorating the life and death of Singapore's Founding Father, Mr Lee Kuan Yew - an act signifying the nation's deepest respect.
==History==
When it was a British colony, Singapore had mechanically-powered air raid sirens over the island, but the system did not work perfectly and was defunct after World War II. Then, in the 1990s, the SCDF planned a network of powerful electrical sirens throughout Singapore to warn the people of natural disasters and air raids. The first of these sirens were completed in 1991 and tested in 1992 on certain parts of Singapore, and by now nearly every part of Singapore has the sirens installed on the selected buildings' rooftops or on the ground if there are no buildings.
