Master -_- SG

AhJun SG

then how come i read from here tt there r pple who didn’t turn up and nth happened to them? no fines or jail or whatever

The thing is, sometimes u cannot trust the words of some people here. Just like in real life, there will always be people who lie to u. You won’t know if they really got into trouble or not, do u? My advice is 2 just go for the VA. You never know, if u dont go maybe kenna charged or something. Don’t play with the system. After all, its just 2 years. Serve finish the 2 years, then go on with ur life. Never make 1 wrong turn, or there’s no turning back

AhJun SG

but i realli realli dun wanna go to the vocation they gif me…but i also dunno what will happen if i dun go. and then there r pple here who said tt nth will happen. i am veri confused now.

AhJun SG

seriously do i haf to go?

It's a chargeable offence, but I dunno how strictly they run the show. (If it was, say for reservist FFI, my unit would've easily sent out another SAF 100 as reminders.)

Got the following off a blog:

"You are hereby required under the Enlistment Act (Chapter 93) to report for Vocation Assessment on 07/08/2007 at 7:30AM. Transport areprovided to and fro from Pasir Ris MRT station (Outside McDonald's at Whitesand Shopping Centre)

The vocational Assessment will take about 6 hours to complete the following stages:
a. Psychology Assessment
b. Physical Fitness Assessment
c. Medical Screening
d. Interview

Note: Any person within or outside Singapore who fails to comply with this Notice shall be guilty of an offence under the Enlistment Act (Chapter 93) and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $10,000 or tom imprisonment for a term not exceeding 3 years or to both such fine and imprisonment."

gaoxingdcf SG

VA dun go is a chargeble offence... Dun noe how strict they will do it or not...

VagueHart SG

Technically, you have to go for you VA. Practically really depends on you... some people here can tell you it's ok, but in the end you get charged, who is to blame? You or the guy who tell you it's ok?

You... It's your responsibility, don't let other people words carry you away.. Think for yourself.

eac SG

from the way he asked and responded to our comments here, it's very clear that he wanted to ignore the reporting letter and in his mind, he has had already made up his mind not to go and his heart is already shown that he is very reluctant to go.

u see, when we say just go, he kept arguing fighting back with thoughts of "if still chosen not to go, how?"
