- Gang fights, assault and terrorism - just some of the incidents Inspector Priscilla Lim has to deal with as part of the Emergency Response Team that protects Singaporeans from some of the most violent offences in the country. Insp Lim describes herself as "petite" and admits she sticks out among her counterparts. She's 1.54m and is 49kg but often carries up to 17kg worth of gear to be combat ready.
She tells CNA Women what her training entailed and what a typical work day is like. READ: cna.asia/3VUUSy4

Good meaningful simp. Solid. I meant meaningless.
@@hannesRSA Mad cause bad?
@@PoseidonGod not sure what you mean. Left AWS cause I'm too good.
take your place back in society and you might get lucky.
She is the pride of Singaporean.
Our highest salute and gratitude to her.
Do you live in Singapore? If so, maybe you could answer me a question. I hear Singapore has very strict laws against criminals. So being that laws are very strict, and punishment is very severe, I would think violent crime is quite low in Singapore. Is this true?
@@user-sg8kq7ii3y Yes, violent crime in Singapore is very low.
@@felixjordan3514 And yet you have SMG armed police patrolling the streets? What a horrible little country.
@@X50505 Maybe that's why it is not so dangerous!?
@@X50505 😂😂
And yet every people in US owns a MG and Sniper and any high caliber weapons
Who's country is horrible now? At least Singapore school doesn't always have to worry about shooting practice
big respect for her 👏👏👏 she's a good example for all of us...not just for any women...you have to be strong ..smart and have a lot of courage to do her kind of work and ability to handle those dangerous weapons that she carries on her daily routine when she's out there doing patrol...thank you for your Service and keep up the good work 👍👍🙏
You better not mess with her or else....😁
Lol. She mentioned going to the toilet with the equipment on
@@ravenone6255 You shouldn't even mess with any armed government workers
This is what true feminism is, not like those women who thinks feminism means getting special treatment because of their genders
feminist just mean you think men and women should get equal pay and treatment, there is no good or bad feminist. if someone wants more than equal its not feminism to being with.
@@26shao No, many women nowadays think that feminism means they can abuse and ruin innocent people’s lives, and get away with it because “they are women”.
Now thats is call gender equality.I appluade her
@@seeyouseemee3863which is good, females should be serving NS
No feminist believe they should get special treatment . If special treatment for you is equal to women getting the same rights, opportunities and respect that men too want, then this is exactly why feminism exist. Because poeple like you can't see women as humans, your equals.
She is a calm and thoughtful officer. It is good to see that the police department sees ability and diversity. I am sure she is a great asset to the team
Diversity until someone gets killed because she can't handle something her male counterparts can
I can't even see the response to the comment. Why?
@@edwardsedwards796 CZcams shadowbanned my comment
@@georgesanderson918 Thanks for your response. CZcams is a communist platform.
@@edwardsedwards796 I can't even see your reply either
This is a heroic career! Be safe and continue to serve your beautiful land! God bless!❤❤
Salute to her .... 17kg is not easy to carry even for certain men, let alone for the entire shift
She belongs to a very rare breed of women.
RESPECT!
But its hard to cary 100 kg person .I now
We don't know what the standards of the unit's selection is. Her male coworker don't look impressive either.
@@notundermywatch3163 we know the crime rate in singapore is 0,17 %. so she basicly do nothing, just go on patrol.
Women ☕
Which is disliked by Islam
I am proud of her and her accomplishment to be a team leader.
Didn't accomplish anything. More quota hires for the fem empowerment agenda
@jack reacher what does that have to do with Singapore?
Let Taliban gets a hold of her and she how tough she is !!!
Some of the comments are very ignorant. She is not protecting her country alone. Why name countries that oppress people and women, and tell her to go there.
@@anthonytran7566 misogynist much
She deserves great respect being the leader of the ERT team in a Men dominated job. We salute you!
She does for real!!
There is no man in Singapore
They just busy shopping chewing gum in Malaysia with their mum credit cards
Lol shes only there so have fun with the men haha wont blame her. The men needs to relieve their stress once in a while haha
If she fired that weapon she would be flat on her back, she's a poser, she actually a model...
Yay Priscilla! True daughter of Singapore! I will keep you in my prayers. I’m a praying believer !! I’m so proud of you! ❤❤
Instead of using conjecture to speak against the ERT , I challenge you to see how they perform in real life situations! Or maybe you don’t understand what’s conjecture? @Naxalite_Power_Aganist_Fascist
@@hannah5245 well..only SOC were well prepared to handle the riots.
@@hannah5245 My suggestion is to you is that do not waste time on people from NATO.
@Naxalite_Power_Aganist_Fascist Maybe in the serangoon road incident, the riot police was forced to flee due to body odor of rioters?
@@DuDerize what riots? Who’s SOC? You referring to the past . This is the first time I’m hearing about the ERT and I’m looking out for future handling of incidents! So not a big deal for me to give them praises/encouragement hoping they take the challenge!
She’s truly a angel of Justice
Outstanding; stay safe and keep moving forward on your accomplishments.
I am sure her team are proud of her, She looks smart and i am sure she is able to handle anything she is confronted with .... You go girl 👮♀
She don’t let negative feedback affect her. Big respect to her!!
Truly inspiring that you can do anything, keep up the good work. Badass in the most complimentary way. 👍
Trust me, I'm pretty sure most American men who made negative comments in this video, will never know what carrying 17kg on a daily basis is like. I train calisthenic and wear 20kg weight vest everyday, and still exhausting as hell. Kudos to the fierceless and brave lady.
calisthenic based
With a gun any perceived difference in physical strength doesn’t matter lol. But she’s unstoppable with that strength and endurance though 😤
not to mention here in Singapore it is very hot and humid. You will get tired very fast.
Ahhaha you softie
17kg total weight walking around is child's play. Wake up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
She is impressive. Being able to lead and carrying 17 kg gear for her size is something.
What happens when her co worker gets shot and she can't drag or carry him ?
@@notundermywatch3163 she gets shot first, lol.
@@sebastianconstantin5176 that's cold bro 🥶
What an inspiration! You go girl!
Hello
I have huge respect for people who daily secure the streets and risk their lives! Big shout out to all Policewomen and men all over the world :D
3 times a week, I wear a 8kg weighted vest and walk 3 rounds around the park (approx 4km) near my house and my body aches from it.
She walks with double the weight.
I salute her.
And on 12 hour shifts almost everyday . Respect
Invest in a good shoulder pads when you're using the weight vest
I say from experience that if your plate carrier and belt are set up right, there's not much discomfort and body adapts but what's concerning is that for a very small frame, long term her joints will suffer a lot of wear. Especially lower back, knees, hips and ankles. Really not good for her long term. Hope she gets promoted quick and gets out of the streets asap.
I walk in my casita patio y front without weight y get winded with my overweight body; assign her in my isla for a week y wait…
@@notundermywatch3163 she will get fast track promoted. Women get preferential treatment in industries where they are underrepresented. Seen it in IT as well.
Thank you for serving our nation. We are proud of you! 👏👍✊️
Heroic wonder girl! Great respect for u👍💪. God bless, b safe n keep it up💪💪💪🙏
damn!!! carrying that 15kg-17kg everyday is not a joke...salute to you madam officer.
Really admire her mental toughness. One of my good friend is a female police officer in the US. She is not only dealing with sexual harassment, but also with racial discrimination!
She is an absolute inspiration 🙏
Wow she’s proven that she can do her job and more. She’s amazing. I pray that you are always safe and blessed. Your family as well. Amen 🙏♥️😇
Again amazing 🙏😇😊
She's very good, kudos from AZ, USA
All the best. True inspiration. Keep flying high
All the worst!
@@jessicaregina1956 What is wrong with you?
I love to be the opposite to everything 😜
this is incredible. 17kg whole day on. Kudos! and she is attractive too. 🥰
Indeed.
Aww she is so cute she is adorable 😍 don't let anyone define you so proud of her she believes in herself
Proud to have you on the street to keep all safe
You are responsible for your own safety.
lol.
You go girl ❤ !!
You have my respect. Keep it up and tks.
Wow. Thank you for keeping everyone safe
She looks determined and strong. Feel safe with her around. And wow, she is pretty!
ALMIGHTY God bless you always 🙏❤️
When I heard about the back-to-back cases she had to address, I can’t help but think back to what a former cop would always say. “Domestic violence calls are some of the most dangerous calls an LEO can make.” If you know who said that, you’re amazing and deserve a Bork Bork sticker.
is it an operator that like donuts?
@@dripskee6443 🐶
She's amazing police officer i salute you mom. Stay safe and healthy. God be with you always.
Congratulations beautiful young lady, you are an inspiration to the country.
Wow..
Amazing! And Singapore needs more of such woman to balance off male dominated environments.
Japan has entire armies full of armed women!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fantastic and respect to her. Also she is very pretty.
Very inspirational! Love to see it
Always on alert and take care of yourself! God blessed.
17kg is no joke. Granted, it is a little overkill to be armed like this in singapore.
Salute to Priscilla Lim !
Respect! 🙏🏻
Nice to see that Soo Yung has grown up and is leading an elite police team.
Tried on the gear she is shown putting on at a police roadshow and they are definitely heavy. Walking or running around with all that weight is no joke. Respect.
By the way that Hyundai Santa Fe looks 👌🏻
Good job.........👍
Your go girl proud of you stay safe out there 🇺🇸
Happy Holidays 🇺🇸
So PROUD of youuuuu Priscilla Lim!! Strike all those crimes in style!! So prouuuddd!!
Hi dad.
Dear mem. It's really great idea and good job but it's challenging job too and always carrying Heavy things.... God bless u💝🇧🇩🇸🇬
Singapore not only has the answer to every problem, it also has the answer to every future problem. In most other Asean countries, they are pre-occupied with donning stylish lounge suits, even under the scorching sun. Have you ever seen Singapore ministers in lounge suits unless it's a formal occasion or are with foreign dignitaries
Look at HK SAR chief, every press conference mask is still on? Even though he has Covid before. 🤭😁
Hey, CNA, just remember, one has the right to freedom of speech in SG. SG =/= North Korea, SG =/= Iran. So, if you delete my post, you are effectively muzzling freedom of expression and reducing SG to a police state, which it isn't.
I do think the original khaki uniforms from old days were more practical
@@clementihammock7572 Covid can get more than once though
im proude of sg but no need to bring down other asean countries, sg is the heart of asean.
Good job! Keep it up
Absolute hats off to this beautiful lady .
Hope todays youngsters learns something from her rather than being clown on internet
Hat’s off to you. You are amazing. When I carry my three year old son weighing 16 kilos,I can only do so for a few meters. I am already out of breath.
She is really 👍👍👍
Priscilla is Great.
Take care.
Bless you officers. South africa
Pride of Singapore.
AN AMAZING WOMAN INDEED. SINGAPORE PRIDE.
Inspector Lim is amazing. 17kg of gears everyday for hours is tiring. I hope your unit get more funding so y'all can have more minimalist plate carriers and lighter helmet. Much respect to you and your team!
Thanks for keeping Singapore safe.
You are amazing!
Impeessive, but a long road against the worlds elite who are very tough guys physically. Again, impressive and a good approach to work equality.
I want to try that MP5 so bad. I work on the southern border of America, big distances, so we use M4's. Our primary weapons are different from your secondary's. Our primary is our handgun, rifle being the secondary. Regardless, love the video. I hope to visit Singapore sometime, especially for the food. Respect, from one LEO to another. Stay vigilant.
For food, come to malaysia, its more authenthic.
YAY GIRL POWER! Thank you for your service to the nation gurl! 🙆♀️💕
You made my day Miss Lim !
I have met small women who’re stronger than many men in the army too. Physical appearance can be deceiving. Talk is cheap too, we know who is worth their weight when it’s time to take action.
talk cokc
Lol 🤣
Yea sure, lets hope that small women can drag an injured comrade to cover when the time comes. Or win in a physical altercation in a life and death situation with a man.
@@austinscott4695 we need pethhouse model
She's not going to have sx with you.
Cool lady police officer 👍👍👍
Super strong and brave lady .
Very proud mam. Height not a mater. U r so strong. Women more strong.
Smaller people have advantages in combat smaller target by enemy.. bringing so many equipment but without any water or ration is very risking
Another advantage is people tend to underestimate smaller people & in a confrontation that is a plus for an able bodied person👍
@@hglim8927 but no water and ration will be disastorous when anti terrorist happen they maybe been encircle by enemy forces they need ration to withstand duration on combat
She needs to become a Rainbow Six Siege character right now
Highest respect. In Singapore is an open society and this lady cop/officer is the product.
She is small but fierce and fully loaded too !!! 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
She's trying to compensate for something
Compensate what
Never underestimate anyone with small size, especially with a gun
Excellent work 🙏👍
Finally, I can use the word respect for someone like her
She loves Her Work n Weapons.
I really love her internal weapons.
17kg?! My stomach weights 17kg. I'm not adding anymore weight please
😹
Is it measured via a steady body fat monitor that breaks down the reading for different parts ?
Your video was very interesting and positive 😊
Syabas for this news!!!
Please be careful Priscilla! ❤️💋
God forbid her 90kg teammate gets injured in a firefight and she has to drag his injured body out of the line of fire.
Hers is an outright position of privilege, the privilege of being in Singapore where real policing is the occasional burglary and theft, not full blown gun fights. Otherwise, no one in their right minds would want to partner with her on the streets, it is a crippling disadvantage if I know that my partner will not be able to fireman carry me as easily as I can fireman carry him.
Definitely. She is for show only.
@@eugeneysaye2685 Why did the people in charge even bother hiring her for a leadership position in a "elite" team anyway, are they trying to get more women involved in the police force???? Why would anyone want that????
@@asimplenight8220 Yes. This in fact is getting the female gender to be more discriminated that otherwise. I also think why why why??????
@@eugeneysaye2685 Scientists have repeated countless studies in Scandinavian nations where egalitarianism is the highest, there literally is where the differences between the genders(where they choose to work for example) maximise.
I'm looking for this comment! What this person said is the absolute reality! A privilege Singaporean born is a safe country wouldn't understand.
she’s beautiful i couldn’t do what she does and my husband taught me to hunt and protect our home.
this woman is heroic in my eyes!
Nice, keep up the good job officer, breaking barriers.
Wonder how's the weapon manoeuvrability under all that gear...
good question..she might be determined......the fact is armed police officers during little india riot all ran away...when they see tens of thousand rioters....
she did not get her postion may merit, people on top,had pull strings ..maybe they want show got more women officers.......in real life situation...how they react is important.....
she at most walking train stations and mall.....easy job...
not facing life threathing sirutation...
@@from_hell__Fake news. It was hundreds not tens of thousands of rioters. And they did run away. They did not move in & for that you need to question their commander on why he asked them to hold their ground instead of move in.
@@from_hell__ Yep, agree with you. There's a reason why Seals are all men, same for the US marines.
All in all, she used All in all three times.
Salute to this young woman officer..
Everything is so nice and fierce when IN FRONT of the CAMERA
i don’t think they can run fast when there is an emergency because of the heavy equipment that they have to carry .
I don't think anybody can, with 17kg. But I'm pretty sure their training requires achievement of a certain level of strength and fitness.
That was an impressive video .
Congratulations for being the leader of this special team,.. l am sure is well deserved,.. and you most certainly had to work very hard to get there,.. carry on the good work,.. from police officer in Canada
This entire women empowerment is great for women and particularly the economy. Kudos to her. She must have great qualities to be given such responsibilities. It does not change biology or realistically the outcome irl that an average guy can easily outmuscle and overpower her.
The US army tried their best to be all inclusive and incorporate ladies into their team. The small sample of trial shows that mix gender teams tend to perform worse and have a higher mortality rate as guys somehow instinctively always throw their lives away to protect women who cannot outsprint and outmuscle the enemies.
People and governments have every right to be woke or against it. However, in places and jobs that protect lives, being sensible and realist is far better than being an idealist.
Mixed gender actually prevent wars and mass rapes during wars. Whether you like it or nor, males primarily in control has always resulted in chaos. Both sees being in power bring a better balance for all humans, and less wars too. Because male supremacists always want to show off power and wage wars on other humans.
Realistically the Outcome irl that an Average Guy CAN EASILY OUTMUSCLE AND OVERPOWER HER?????
@@Justme-ir8qu yes. Basic physics. A 90kg guy can easily outmuscle a 70kg guy. A 70kg guy can easily outmuscle a 50kg lady.
If weight, height and gender are pointless, we should just merge male and female into one category in sports.
We should not divide sports by weight classes and gender.
To date, the female weight lifting record and sprinting record in olympics have been broken countless times by HIGH SCHOOL BOYS. Not even fully grown adult men.
My statement stands. An average guy can easily outmuscle, over power and out sprint her.
@@amnrslhn6035 I don't agree.
She was trained for her job and I believe she was appointed as the leader of her team because of her capabilities.
I need proof to your statement.
@@Justme-ir8qu science is not that hard. Dumb people decide to make it hard in order to not offend fragile humans.
Strong Lady 👍👍
Respect!
I like how the comments are literally complaining about how safe Singapore is, actual 🤡 behaviour, only people like these fought in wars, the great keyboard war, if you guys talk so much why not come out and do it then, if you can do it then we shut up
Congrate ..I m proud of u..may God blees u aminnn
Really respect her, not easy carrying 17kg load for the whole day 😊
