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
