Be a person of commoner, celebrity, man or woman, the question here is about Principle. If one cannot fathom that responsibility, then what does it say about...

NavDv04 SG

Nothing can be achieved over the actions of a coward. He disowned his country thus Singapore disowned him. Full Stop. What is troubling is that his family who is eating singapores grass and mud gives him their blessing.

still contributing to the “barbaric” image? wow. thanks.

huaqing SG

who is Melvyn Tan???

[email protected] SG

before one of these barbarians come out and slam him, i'll tell u.

he's a singaporean born classical pianist, who's currently a british citizen. His only crime was to be born in a country which does not think that u can serve the nation other than holding arms, which also does not support any sort of career other than one where u are guranteed to earn $ so u can pay taxes to them.

LazerLordz SG

Oh so now migrating is being a coward too?

Go ahead then. Laughing It's a choice each person has to make and you jolly well respect that choice in situ, even if you do not respect it in a larger context.

Hypocrites.

huaqing SG

thanks for ur info...

[email protected] SG

u're welcome.

nobody denys that he has skipped his NS, nor that its not a crime by singapore law. but he has also been punished in accordance to the law so I see no reason why the philistines and barbarians should still be mewing away.

highway69 SG

Ya lor what for fine him.Banish him from our country.

[email protected] SG

is that written down in the law? Funny, I can't find banishment written in the law anywhere. Too bad for you. Laughing

highway69 SG

As your name suggest you must be an ah kua. Laws are for dumb people like you to obey and serve your masters. Law also say just fine him 3000 bucks.

[email protected] SG

Really? Just because people got brain can think for themselves must be ah kua ah? Ok loh if u need to be a moron like u to not be an ah kua, i'd rather choose the ability for independent thought. of course, your ignorance is just amazing. Last I looked, just because one does not like to think about girls all the time doesn't make one an ah kua. But i guess perverted old men like u don't know that. Laughing

So since u say for smart ppl, dun need to follow law, then melvyn also dun need follow law and serve loh. and since u followed the law n served, it proves conclusively u're dumb loh.

i like seeing stupid people say conflicting things.

highway69 SG

First of all, I am not a perverted old man.Are you talking about yourself?

Secondly, are you sure you got a brain?

Lastly, I don't wish to lower my IQ with someone like you.

[email protected] SG

no proof that u're not.

yes im sure i have a brain. no proof of the same for you.

lastly u made the stupid contridacting statements yourself. your IQ already as low as it can go. dun have to worry about me lowering it further. Laughing

if thats all u can think to say, try harder. oh wait. u're trying your hardest already. sad

LazerLordz SG

Do they not teach subtlety of language and nuance anymore in schools? Rolling Eyes

Since you say that laws are dumb, I'm challenging you to slap the GOH at the Istana and see if you can walk to Plaza Singapura unmolested.

[email protected] SG

dun bother. hes an idiot. Since he has stated that laws are dumb, then it was right of Melvyn for breaking the law and not serving, is it not? So he has no grounds for whining. If laws are not dumb, then Mel's been punished in accordance to the law as well, so he has no grounds either for whining does he?

Like I said, let the idiot contridact themselves. Their heads are so full of shit they don't even know what the hell they're saying. All they want to do is to condemn someone to show how "macho and important" they are, when they're just gutless robots living life they way they've been told to.

axle-ken SG

serving ns is alrite. but however i dink 2 yrs is still abit too long. 1yr might be just nice.

living in sgp is already tough enf. have 1 more yr or even 6 months more. will do our lifestyle a big benefit.

free thinker SG

I disagree with that. He is a Singapore-Born Singaporean therefore it is mandatory for him to serve NS. But however, if he isn’t born in Singapore but obtain Singapore Citizenship due to DESCENT, then i feel that it is extremly unfair to punish him as firstly, he does not belong to Singapore and secondly, he left at 12 years old. And furthermore, he DOES NOT need to discharge his NS liabilities if he wants to renounce his citizenship later on, in fact, the Singapore government would automatically “cancel” him if he did not take the OATH by 21 years old.

will4 SG

I think many local should be given a choice to serve in the Police or Civil Defence.
They can learn more skill.

LazerLordz SG

Oh great, now Salman might just come in and poop all over this newly revived thread. Laughing

iveco SG

You know, I sometimes feel we should not come down too hard on Jehovah's Witnesses. They can always serves as paramedics or firefighters since these vocations do not involve carrying arms but saving lives instead.

In fact, it is more noble to serve one's conscription in SCDF than the other uniformed services due to the fact that the former are not a battle-oriented organisation.
