i am nt denying the fact tat minor offences can lead to serious
consequences…i am juz saying, y cun SAF include an
element of mercy into the punishments they mete out??? some serious
offences tat r committed r purely accidental yet the soldier get
sent to DB or jail for it…is there a need to ruin his entire future
for committing an offence he didnt plan for??? then if he was a
regular, he will be discharged(sacked)from SAF n sent
to jail…tats even worse!!! breaking his rice bowl n ruining his
future…surely they can show a little mercy by sending him to jail
but allowing him to continue working in the SAF after
his release???
i understand tat “tis is the army” but juz cos its a military
organisation doesnt mean it shld be so merciless n harsh towards
its soldiers…one of the reasons y army life is often spoken
negatively abt is cos ppl r aware of the kind of treatment they
give towards soldiers…basically, in the army u learn tat “ït realli
doesnt pay to be kind”...
Eh brother, very merciful already leh. If the enemy catch u
sleeping during guard duty, do you think that the worst that could
happen is going to db? They will send you straight to the giant db
with hot flaming lava underground lor. Accident = never think of
consequences of what you do = complacent. Complacent= Dave Teo or
Mas Selamat incident. Any questions?
