Description of Programme

The NExtgen Immersive Experience is designed to impart and inspire the National Education (NE) messages to the next generation of participants in Singapore through location-based mobile technology.

Learning Objective / Total Defence Pillars

Kent Ridge (also known as Pasir Panjang Ridge), being one of the highest points in Singapore, played a huge role in the deployment of the British Forces in the Southern part of Singapore. The Battle of Kent Ridge also evokes memories of the fearless and relentless fighting spirit of the fiercest battle ever fought in Singapore. The Battle of 200 saw 200 soldiers from the 1st Battalion Malay Regiment led by Lt. Adnan Saidi fighting relentlessly against 3,500 men from the Japanese Imperial Army. From this trail, participants will be visiting prominent checkpoints including the Kent Ridge Lookout Point, to gain deeper insights about Kent Ridge and its significance for our Battle for Singapore.
