xunmengzitu SG STOMPer Fat Boi is intrigued by this car, bearing an "MID" licence plate, that has been parked in his neighbourhood HDB carpark for several months. The STOMPer says that he also noticed an HDB carpark label prominently displayed in the front of the car windscreen. "I am surprised MINDEF allows its staff to use its vehicles for personal transportation," the STOMPer adds. STOMP has contacted MINDEF for comments.
uglyguy SG GP cars... are loan out to officers, both regulars and NSmen, usually of higher ranks. its a kind of convience provided to SAF personal that needs to travel, or stays far away from the base.
Gordonator SG before i ORD, the chiefs in my camp drove their MID to work. but it was later changed to MID can only be driven for official use and is to be parked in camp. the chiefs from then on drove their own cars to work, which is much more high class than their MIDs.
minimalis SG They’re on rental. GP cars of this class are usually for WOs and they pay a mthly rental.
Ponders SG 189 MID.. sounds familiar... dunno if i am right, but isn't it BMTC commander's car? But i dun see anythign wrong driving home an MID car if their rank/appt allows for it. it's not like they are driving a Green Station Wagon or Command Jeep that is usually loaned to RSMs/COs Better than parking a GPMG mounted Jeep at Jurong point. (sounds familiar?)
Ponders SG they should provide NSF with MID car too. but the condition is that they will not get NSF allowance. got car to drive chick but no money to spend with chick. ahah.
