I have a few qns here.. as im unable to reach d 2 ppl on my letter for further clarifications..
I'm unable to find d 2 required sureties needed for my bond signing.. I have initially emailed the 2 ppl, received a reply tat they are able to schedule another date however, the date cannot be confirmed at the moment.
My 2nd question is would my appointment date be affected in this case? M i still able to start in the april intake then? - have been waiting for 2days for an answer but apparently no one replied.. their phone numbers are always engaged else no one is answering..
btw im selected for d april intake as PO.. any1 else same?
other qns on stuff to bring for training..
- d plain white t-shirts/singlets/shirt, can they bear any logo?
- d white shirt (short-sleeved), is it those buttoned ones? any particular cutting etc? any idea this is for outdoor activities or indoor lessons?
- d slacks, does this mean track pants? n full length? any particular material?
- in addition, onli 2 slacks are mentioned in the to bring list.. is this sufficient?
- since hp charger is not allowed, any idea if battery operated chargers are allowed?
- have noticed that there are quite alot of other items nt mentioned in the letter to bring frm the other topic, will bringing 2 bags be too much?
hope you guys here can help.. >.< srry for d many qns.. jus wan to be clear b4 i buy anything..

white T-shirt can't have logo. exept police logo.
i didn't know there is cutting for white shirt.... just a normal white shirt? should be indoor, if there is physical lessons like running or swimming, got the appropriate things to wear.
I think HP charger means HP charger. What ever way you charge it.
I think you will be issued stuff when you go in, so you won't need too much stuff. Let's wait for more experienced people to guide you bah...
d white t-shirt must hab d police logo? o.o? meaning i got to go those jalan besar area n buy? or jus plain white t-shirt.. ?
ok.. will lookout for plain white shirt..
i thot there was a issue with using electricity there.. tat's y i ask whether non-electrical means of charging phone is allowed.. have seen those AA batteries to charge..
oh okie.. >< hopefully~ thks alot sky

Thks! :)
The white shirt required is actually for your walk-out. No need to buy expensive shirts: just head on down to beach road and tell them that you want a white shirt for Police and they will know. Can cost as low as a few bucks. You will be using this only for the duration of your training.
Your white t-shirt is actually for you to wear while in camp. Singlets will do just fine, as they can also be worn within both your uniform and walk-out attire. Other t-shirts are more for your own usage, as training will be conducted in polo tees [will be issued to you].
Slacks... for ladies will be track pants lor. 'Cause from what I can see, police officer trainess [female] will be in track pants. If guys, shorts will do. Two should suffice, but if you want to bring more, then by all means lor. Minimum of two. I'd recommend about three though.
Battery-operated chargers should be alright. But just verify with them once againa lor, just in case. If calling through proves to be hard, maybe you can try an email?
About the bags, actually I would recommend just bringing one bag. Because once your training begins, you will be issued with a big bag.
Hope this helps...
still need sureties?
I dunno cox my letter doesn't stated that I have to bring along 2 ppl.
Perhaps I'm different from u as I am joining without training(POBC)
Going down for fingerprinting on 29th April.
