Discover how three SPF TransCom officers balance their football passion with teamwork on patrol, keeping the city safe while scoring goals in life.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Even though they have a shared love for football, Public Transport Security Command (TransCom) officers SC\/SGT Jasdeen Mohamed, SC\/SGT Rakim Shalla, and SC\/CPL Muhammad Iskandar Bin Ishak often engage in \u201cheated\u201d exchanges. Their friendly rivalry is rooted in their support for different English Premier League (EPL) clubs \u2014 Jasdeen, 21, is a passionate Liverpool fan, while Rakim, 20, and Iskandar, 22, are die-hard supporters of Manchester United. \u201cWhat makes it fun is that both teams are rivals,\u201d said Rakim. \u201cBoth Iskandar and Jasdeen constantly debate over which team is playing better during EPL matches.\u201d<\/p>

Despite their banter, the trio agrees that Lionel Messi is among the greatest players of all time. The officers play football together at least once a fortnight, either at Woodlands Base or HomeTeamNS Bukit Batok<\/a>\u2019s Futsal Court<\/a>, which is close to all their homes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

TAKING TEAMWORK TO THE NEXT LEVEL<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

When the three play football, they push each other to be better players by pointing out areas for improvement. Their ability to communicate and put the team\u2019s needs above their own has strengthened their bond both on and off the field. This camaraderie has translated into their work as TransCom officers, where clear communication and teamwork are crucial.<\/p>

\u201cWhen we respond to incidents, we naturally assign ourselves roles in order to make things more efficient and to help settle the issue as quickly as possible. For instance, if I was approached by a member of the public who doesn\u2019t speak English or Malay, Rakim or Jasdeen would step in, as they can converse in Mandarin and Tamil respectively,” explained Iskandar.<\/p>

As TransCom officers and foot patrol leaders, their primary duty is to ensure the safety of Singapore\u2019s public transport network by patrolling MRT stations. They respond to various cases, from locating missing persons and handling shop thefts and disputes to rendering medical assistance. They are also deployed at major events such as Formula 1 and the National Day Parade, as well as during festive celebrations like Christmas and New Year\u2019s Day.<\/p>

“We respond to various types of cases daily. It\u2019s our duty to protect the public transport and deter crime,\u201d said Jasdeen.<\/p>

\u201cLeading a team and responding to incidents can be demanding. But when we receive appreciation from the public or help restore peace, it\u2019s incredibly fulfilling,\u201d said Rakim. He added that \u201cIt\u2019s also rewarding to share knowledge with my juniors and witness how they improve over time.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

TransCom is a specialist unit in the Singapore Police Force (SPF) that relies heavily on NSFs. Building strong bonds between juniors and seniors is essential for the unit to function smoothly. Jasdeen highlighted the importance of mentorship in ensuring new officers are prepared for their duties. \u201cMentors help new officers gain confidence and understand their responsibilities,\u201d said Jasdeen. He credits his teammates, Rakim and Iskandar, for helping him learn the ropes and gain essential knowledge during his early days in the unit.<\/p>

One notable incident that tested their teamwork was the train disruption on the East West Line that happened on 25 September 2024. Stationed at Jurong East MRT, the trio coordinated their teams to manage crowd control and provide directions to stranded commuters. \u201cThe three of us coordinated and decided to split ourselves up at the platforms and concourse level so as to cover a wider area,\u201d recalled Jasdeen. \u201cWe projected our voices to raise awareness of the bridging bus locations and the possible routes that the public could take to reach their destinations. I\u2019m glad I was able to help during this major disruption with Rakim and Iskandar,” added Jasdeen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Throughout their NS journey, cohesion and other significant activities that TransCom organises help to foster a sense of camaraderie among the trio which extends to their fellow officers. \u201cWe participated in a cohesive 4km run at Bedok Reservoir and also exercise sessions after in-service training. I have fun exercising and running together as a team as I get to see another side of them and engage in meaningful conversations,\u201d Jasdeen recounted. \u201cAnother highlight was the TransCom Appreciation Night. It showed me a non-operational perspective of the people I work with, and I was able to engage in casual conversations with my team and strengthen bonds with them simultaneously,\u201d he added.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The trio\u2019s teamwork isn\u2019t limited to football; they also hit the gym together, where they motivate one another to push through challenging workouts. \u201cGoing to the gym builds trust and empathy,\u201d said Iskandar. \u201cWe encourage each other and offer advice on how to improve. Fitness is crucial in our job, especially when assisting someone with a medical emergency,” he added.<\/p>\n

Their dedication has paid off. Thanks to the workouts and the continued encouragement of Jasdeen and Rakim, Iskandar was recognised with the Commander\u2019s Award for best improvement in IPPT for his intake. He was also part of the TransCom team that won a gold medal during a recent Police Sports Association football tournament. \u201cThe biggest lesson I\u2019ve learned from TransCom is how to be the best version of myself and a leader my team can rely on,\u201d said Iskandar.<\/p>\n

Rakim and Jasdeen have also received recognition for their leadership. Rakim was presented with the Outstanding Performance Award, while Jasdeen, who was named the Best Trainee in the 190th<\/sup> intake during the TransCom Basic Course, received the Outstanding PNSF Award for his intake in October 2024.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

While formal recognition is rewarding, the trio\u2019s respect and admiration for one another is perhaps the greatest accolade. \u201cRakim and Jasdeen are both disciplined officers who give their best no matter the circumstances,\u201d said Iskandar.<\/p>\n

\u201cRakim is a dedicated and motivated officer who can command the team, delegate roles, and write a good First Information Report!\u201d said Jasdeen. \u201cMeanwhile, Iskandar is a confident leader and good with public engagement. He often encourages the public to sign up as Riders on Watch (ROW) under the Community Watch Scheme<\/a> (CWS),\u201d Jasdeen added.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The ROW network was launched in 2019 with the aim of preventing crime within the public land transport network. Commuters are roped in as \u2018eyes and ears\u2019 on the ground during their daily commute, as an extension to the Singapore Police Force\u2019s overall strategy in combating crime and terrorism. ROW has subsumed as an interest group under the Community Watch Scheme and has more than 8,000 members. Sign up for the ROW here<\/a>\u00a0and let\u2019s all pitch in to build a stronger, safer community for all.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Reflecting on their shared journey, Rakim said, \u201cThe memories we\u2019ve created at the football field and on patrol will always be cherished. I\u2019m certain we\u2019ll stay in touch and continue to hang out even after our NS journey ends.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
