The Pingat Gagah Perkasa (English: Conspicuous Gallantry Medal) is a medal instituted in 1962. It is awarded to any person in Singapore that has performed "an act of conspicuous gallantry and courage in circumstances of extreme personal danger". It may also be awarded to any person who has performed an act outside Singapore in special circumstances.
The military equivalent of the award is the Pingat Gagah Perkasa (Tentera), which is given to members of the Singapore Armed Forces.
History
