“This year’s National Day Parade (NDP) was postponed to Aug 21 Aug, in view of the Phase 2-Heightened Alert (HA) COVID-19 restrictions. Decisions like these are not easy to make — and getting support for them depends on open communication between the leaders and those they lead,” says MAJ (NS) Rozaiman Rosidi, 38. This is something he has learnt after nearly two decades in the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF).He is currently the Deputy Commander of 21 Rescue Unit (21RU).
Although not involved in NDP 2021, he knows from experience how crucial good leadership is to the success of Singapore’s annual birthday bash. “I was involved in supporting a NDP during my NS days and I saw how important good leadership was,” recalls MAJ (NS) Rozaiman, who received the NSman of the Year award in 2020.
