Acerguy_007 SG I don't know whether to comment on this but i find it really something to share with all of you Heard from my cousins that they have some friends who are so afraid of serving NS til the point of being paranoid Some of them even deiberately injured themselves! and end up in some light vocations. Recently there is this friend of my mum who even went to the point of caliing CMPB to ask them if they can exempt her son from NS just because her son don't seem to be able to take hardships! I have also heard and seen many cases where people fake some illnesses or injuries during their pre enlist medical checkup. Oh god isn't NS should be a growing and learning experience which everyone should and must go through? NS grooms an individual to cultivate a certain level of independence and tolerance for hardships. Shouldn't this group of people reflect on themselves a little? Ns should be a learning experience for all, it should be the most significant phase in our life which we must go through, and in the midst make certain positive turning points in our life before we become a man from boy what we should do is take it like a man and go through NS with positive mindset,afterall it is just 2 years but lots can be learnt and achieved thorughout the process which can help us to do wonders in the later part of our life Do you guys agree?
RaTtY81 SG dun ned scared. every male will pass thru tis sh!t once in their lifetime n when every1 is doing the same sh!t as u, y b scared?
dragg SG nothing new. call the hotline for help if you are scared. fm88.3 keep advertising on mental support or whatnot.
Gordonator SG if u can’t take a little hardship like NS, how are u going to face up to greater challenges in life? don’t tell me u are gonna leech on your parents for the rest of your life?
Acerguy_007 SG oh no seems like you guys are mistaken i didn't say i am scare of NS read my post carefullyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
hisoka SG lol propaganda? anyway its not somethign everyone has to go thru, in fact its not somethign a person has to go thru to "grow up"
Acerguy_007 SG But scoldings might not necessarily be bad what because only through scoldings can we learn about our mistakes right?
larrenV2.003 SG What happen to our younger generation... I wonder if your parents really spoilt u all into this manner...
BrUtUs SG its good that u not like the ppl u listed… they all need councellor b4 gng ns… maybe they should send all pre enlistee go look first… nowadays ns is better than last time liao…
hisoka SG the word like a man it self is problematic and stereotypical right? anyway why go through it if you do not need to? if you have to i agree just go thru it as best as you can but if there is a chance not to go through it why not? and also if you can make your passage smoother why not?
Acerguy_007 SG Personally i think the main reason why some of the parents nowadays are so against NS is the recent death cases of NS men One of my relative told me to keng during cdos bmt or else risk of dying is very high and that piece of infomation really scare my mum out of her wits! They make it sound as if i am going to meet my doom in few weeks time
kc_leung SG Ignore the scare-mongers. When your mum sees you alive after 1 week or 1 month of NS, that will be enough to convince her that all the fears are untrue.
hisoka SG let them go in and look no use one. whatever they let you see wil be only the good side or they purposely relax or give better treatment for that time. it always happens........
