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".[1] It may also be awarded to any person who has performed an act outside Singapore in special circumstances.[2]
