scrap it? no way.
i don't want singapore to be invaded by malaysians by war with
no proper defense.
reduce it.yes
compare to others countries 2 years and + the reservist period
is way too long.
Look at our society today, expecially the youth.
they are screwed up in the head with their thinking and army is
one of the way to change those thinking(although some might become
even worst).
Reduce it, but not scrap it! 2 years + reservist term is way too
long. and its disturbing
for the sake of our country future.
I think we should stay at 2 years or 2 1/2 years not depend on
education but on the fitness of the guy. Just like I took the
normal 5 years secondary and my fren took the express 4 years. So
if you are weak, u learn n exercise slowly, if you are strong,
you can serve fulltime 2years ok liao.
By cutting it short will clamp up the programmes and make it
more stressful, alot of guys already die during running or training
in NS, if you reduce to 1 years, the training will be pack and more
intensive, this will higher the tempo and more fatty and weak
guys will die from it.
