This bust depicts Lieutenant Adnan Saidi, recognised as one who embodied the motto of the Malay Regiment: Ta’at Setia. Born in 1915 at Kampong Sungei Ramal near Kajang, Selangor, Adnan joined the Malay Regiment in 1933 and was eventually commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant. He was killed during the battle of Bukit Chandu in 1942, after exhorting his platoon of soldiers to fight till the end.
