Newsflash Asia

- July 2, 2025

A 30-year-old Operationally Ready National Serviceman tragically passed away after collapsing outside Maju Camp on 30 June 2025. The serviceman had just completed a National Service Fitness Improvement Training (NS FIT) session at the Maju Fitness Conditioning Centre, which ran from 1850 to 2000 hours. He reported feeling well to fitness instructors and left the camp at 2011 hours.

Shortly after leaving, a passer-by witnessed his collapse and promptly called for an ambulance. The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) was alerted at 2016 hours, with the ambulance arriving at 2025 hours. Despite resuscitation efforts both on-site and during the journey to the National University Hospital, he was pronounced dead at 2154 hours.

In response to this incident, the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) has initiated a safety pause on NS FIT training until 4 July 2025. This pause aims to review existing safety procedures and protocols, as well as to reinforce the importance of safety among soldiers. The SAF is also providing support to the serviceman’s family during this difficult time, extending their deepest condolences.

Further investigations are underway to determine the exact cause of death.
