Would just like to comment that the Laju incident which as credited as an occasion where Singapore's Commando SOF completed their successfull mission, is not exactly so.

The incident which occured between Jan and Feb 1974 triggered off the realisation that Singapore needed to put in place a counter terrorist force for emergencies like the Laju incident. As such the force couldn't have exist during the incident.

It was the members of the police force who served as voluntary hostages and  police negotiators, (not the military's Special Operations Force), which helped defuse the crisis.
