Response to The Straits Times Article on "SAF Soldiers' IPPT Likely to Change"

MINDEF: CSNS will not be reviewing specifics of the IPPTThe Straits Times' article "SAF Soldiers' IPPT Likely to Change" (dated 23 Oct 2013) was speculative and misleading. The Committee to Strengthen National Service will not be reviewing specifics of the IPPT, which is an SAF matter as it deals with the combat fitness of our soldiers. The SAF does review its training programs periodically, including those for combat fitness but has not decided on any changes to the IPPT format.
