Will Singapore go to War?

Will Singapore go to war? Singapore is a practically diminutive nation-state but it hides a true military powerhouse that could be even more powerful than Israel. Fetch'd summarises how Singapore has had to carefully manage its external relations due to its small size and highly strategic location and the strategies it enforces to prevent a scenario like war.
We discuss three strategies, namely “Defense Strategy”, “Modernisation” and “Air Defense", and how effective they are.
Fetch'd discusses more than whether Singapore will go to war:

As tensions flare globally, especially with the ongoing Israel-Hamas War. We would like to question the peace that Singapore has sustained over the years. Could we be taking this peace for granted? Let us know some of your thoughts!

Technology has its advantages but human sacrifice for survival is the key is to winning any war

First half of the video: Great content and superb summary of the rise of Singapore and its military capabilities. That part from 10:27 is taken right out of the anti-China narrative espoused by the Western media. If Singapore is to face a military threat at all, it will not come from, or directly caused by, China.

[@bell-xk5dd]

Right. China will never ever start a war with any country, much less with Singapore. Taiwan is a different story, because China considers Taiwan as her own….

[@user-hn4kl3fb7l]

you seems to know war and strategies beyond your understanding.

[@hassanrose1714]

We as a Singaporean better leave in peace be good to our serounded neighbour, because we no need to compare to Malaysia Thailand Brunei Philippine or other country just look and see our neighbour Indonesia with 17.500 island. The island that same size like Singapore i thing is more than thousand. Let be peace everybody will leave happily dont thing about war. If you thing that you are strong but there have somebody, more strong than you because they do not want to show what they have. Remember that, peace and respect always and be a good neighbour than we can leave and sleep in peace. Thank you..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Xi acts for the last five years are like Hitler Germany & Japanese imperial before WW2. A mass production of military weapons, preparing military for war, control of the citizens by propaganda, brainwashing citizens that they are oppress by an enemy, & taking territories from their neighbors with threats of war if they're neighbors complain.

[@limpek001]

A population which have not been in a single fight ever expected to fight like sparta if there is a war in future?

Singapore and our people desires peace and has no wish for war. The defences we have is to maintain this peace that we are all enjoying now.

Will? (as opposed to maybe and likely) In an era of asymmetric warfare, war may not just be confined to traditional military conflict. Confronted by cyber attacks by other state and non-state actors, Singapore is forced to defend itself. Like it or not, Singapore, and for this matter, many other countries, are already "at war", however low-intensity it may be.

[@yaplp8129]

No one can sit on the fence forever. Ukraine were sitting on the fence while neighbouring states signup to NATO or EU.

[@bruneilange4161]

All male Singaporeans are Soldiers after British left Singapore undefended.

[@tankee1981ify]

Male Singaporeans and Permanent Residents served a mandatory 2-years National Service but not all are serving in the military. Many are serving in the Singapore Police Force and Singapore Civil Defence Force as well. All of which are components of Singapore's Total Defence strategy.

If Singapore goes to war in the South China Sea how does it transport it fighter planes from the US?

[@sevengill5162]

Fly

[@markstevens6682]

All that said… Singapores is just a tiny island which needs to import everything needed for survival…!

[@swanthiateng1484]

This anti China narrarive shows clearly in this video; many countries built islands in South China Sea with claims; so why blame China .....?

[@gha9543]

Will Singapore buy fishes from disputed islands in the SEA ? R these fishes for the markets in Asia?

[@HuaWuDi]

No, China's never our enemy..

[@alfealimbon2678]

China always means the opposite. Because China is stupid.

Singapore or Temasek is originally part of Indonesia as Sang Nila Utama was a Prince from Indonesia who landed on the island who supposedly daw a Lion and named it Singa-pura.

[@ongtayjoojames-ow1bs]

SGP don't have lions but got tigers. And tigers mostly comes from the deep jungles of malaysia. Lions habitated from African nations, like Botwana and those African Continentals...

[@eliashk5]

During the time of Sang Nila Utama, Indonesia did not exist.

Singapore has been discriminated for their independence and sovereignty since they became a Republic and uphold the Constitution and rule of law and the principles and values laid out in their founding principles of democracy and equality with respect and honour for their people and country 😂 . Why r we a minority nation in a multi religious and multi cultural region. Singapore is a sovereign nation with secular laws and rules. Religion and politics have prospered from the freedom of religion and belief. A country with secular laws and democratic values is a progressive democracy with freedom to prosper without prejudice.

[@Bxw-gh9fq]

India refused to help Singapore to set up military in 1966 . Do you think Indian will risk their own life to help Singapore. STOP DREAMING

[@carlodivinagracia7432]

Singapore is strong militarily as of today but in case of total war, Singapore will not last long. Singapore does not have the manpower, the strategic space to maneuver, strategic resources such as food & water, & ammunition production facilities to sustain combat in 1 year. Singapore can easily be besieged to surrender, bombard with missiles & artillery from neighboring islands, and the people’s love for money and order can easily force their government to surrender. Most analysts predict in the event of Allies war with China, Singapore will be a fence sitter.
