LITTLE SEA MARSHAL


Abby Lim, 11, has never been to a naval base even though her dad is an Accompanying Sea Security Team operator with the Republic of Singapore Navy. In this year's PIONEER Kids special, she visits Tuas Naval Base, where she gets to find out what her dad does as a sea marshal and to film him in action!

Check out these snapshots of Abby as she joins her dad for a fun "training session"! As a sea marshal, 3WO Lim Zi'En boards merchant ships to check for suspicious activities.
