For Recruits/Enlistees:
There are couple of items which are allowed in the SAF as a form of
personal recreation during free time in Bunk or for other
purposes.
Entertainment
1- Magazines (R21/ Uncensored Pictures; Pornographic Materials
Aren't Allowed; Maxim, NewMan, FHM are allowed Magazines)
2- Story Books; Novels; Comic
3- Games: Chess, Uno, Bingo, Reversi etc. (Poker Cards Not
Allowed)
4- PSP*
5- DS*
6- MP3/4*
7- None Camera Phones (Common Knowledge)
8- Loud Speakers (That is if you willing to share music with the
whole Bunk)
Toiletries
9- Additional own towel (it could be just for cleaning of face in
the morning; you can choose to buy the SAF green colour $2.50 in
E-mart or bring along your own)
10- Facial Wash
11- Powder (Sometimes, there's no time for you to shower thus
there's a need for powder bath)
12- Shaving Gel/Cream
13- Handy Plasters
14- Ankle/Knee/Elbow Guards for people with previous history of
injuries.
15- Shower Form/Gel (which can easily wash off Camo-Cream)
Rainbath shower gel washes off the camo cream quite
easily followed by Dettol.
Facial Scrub might help only to a little, since I've tried it
myself, Biore isn't that good for washing off Camo-cream
Food
15- Three/Four In One Drinks (Must be inside sachets)
16- Energy Drink Powder
17- Protein Powder
18- Food-Supplements
19- Sweets
Others:
20- Cigarettes (Max: 2 packet per person)
For Food, it varies depending in
individual company;
If there's history of Rats in that level of your company, than it's
advised not to bring food in; You wouldn't want to see your items
all in a mess.
* - Must not have removable memory card inside
Note: Expensive Items might be easily lost inside SAF since there
are people who can't afford to buy such items* thus if anybody want
to bring it inside, exercise pre-caution and don't anyhow misplace
it.
