In the past,Males were made to serve 21/2 yrs of army for the
security sake of the nation
The Financial statues of our nation decades back have made it qutie
impossible for singaproe to invest its capital entirely on the
military,hence,the need for part time NS men
however,after decades,Why are males still being called up for
NS?
Our nation have improved significantly in terms of economy and
revenue.
And its bank reserve are enuff to her to hired full time military
personel instead of making it a regulation for males of singapore
citizen to be enlisted into the military.
and if we're talking abt lack of population,hadnt the tide been
turned?
The influx of foreign talents and foreign workers have taken the
roles of many lower paid jobs...hence leaving more singaporean
jobless..
but unemployment aint the main issue right nw...
The issue is if foreigners have taken much of us singaporean
jobs,wun that leave much singaporean jobless?
these ppl can then join the army and given a better pay.
The compulsary enlistment of male into NS might work in the past
but now,I feel its not.
A successful person,being to serve the military for 2years means a
halt in his life for 2 yrs...
Nt being to persue what hes wants,social circle being affected and
contribution to the nation impossible[except NS]
Juz like the case of that talented violinlist.
It makes singapore difficult to advance and improve its area of
areas
For growth there has to be a paid price
Juz like being militarily strong,spending of money is
inevitable
and for the growth of nation as a whole,regulation has to be
flexible and to change with time
