Let's say the world suddenly becomes a super wonderful place and
you get to choose from these options...
1.) Get to stay in your current camp, vocation,
lifestyle...basically your current NSF life except that your pay is
what you deserve or slightly more. IE. if you're a diploma holder,
you get paid what you would get if you found a job outside PLUS
more if you do weekend duties, overtime etc.
2.) You stay in your current vocation, camp, dept and draw the NSF
allowance as it is now. But there's alot of welfare. For eg. long
tea breaks, offs can be earned easily, hardly any OT (if
applicable) and FIVE DAY WEEK all the time. No weekend
duties...
3.) You get to choose your vocation, and camp (if applicable). EG.
you can choose to be an infantry officer and choose to go to 9DIV
HQ at Selarang. But cannot choose to be a Guards Specialist and go
to MINDEF at Gombak base since Guards is at Bedok. Everything else
is the same...got weekend duties, lifestyle is still low class NSF
life, pay is low.
4.) You serve only 11mths NSF (half the current NSF liability with
fitness cut), but life absolutely sucks to the core. All MUST stay
in, even clerks. Can only book out once per month or sometimes
can't even book out. Only 7 days leave given. No offs AT ALL even
if public holiday burnt etc...
