👏We're proud of Assistant Station Manager (ASM) Muhammad Haziq Bin Abu Bakar, who received the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) Community First Responder Award for his swift response to a fire onboard a 🟤Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) train heading from Tanjong Rhu to Gardens by the Bay station.
On 21 May 2026, ASM Adzrul noticed a burning smell while on duty. Working quickly, he scanned the train and discovered smoke coming from a power bank in a commuter's handbag. He used the onboard fire extinguisher to put out the flames and reassured commuters. 🧯
🚆At the next station, he guided commuters off the train and helped them board another train. Adzrul remained at the scene until SCDF arrived. 🚒
His actions reflect what "We Love to Help" means: looking for commuters when they need us.
✨Congratulations, ASM Adzrul for your well-deserved recognition!
