In the footage, uniformed officers stride forward in slow motion, backs turned to the camera, exuding an air of unwavering confidence. The thundering beats of Powerhouse heighten the drama, transforming the parade scene into something that could easily pass for a film trailer.
Sharing the video on Instagram, the police captioned it, “Reporting for #ndp2025 duties. #powerhouse #sg60 #singaporepoliceforce #safeguardingeveryday.”
