Your friend wrong lah. Recruits who enlist will get about $450-$600 depending on which period of the month they enlist. The first pay is always alot becaus...

LazerLordz SG

The best thing for all of us is to wait for some news relelease of sorts before getting all ecstatic.NS being reduced so decisively quick is like lightning..It aint gonna strike twice.Sorry to deflate the hopes of a proper pay raise.It’s not true and certainly not ging to happen.Do you really think MINDF will shoot itself in the foot , especially now that they are facing a cinch in their finances, especially affecting the budget allocated to Army.No doubt , a pay raise would be rather warm and fuzzy, but I’m taking it with a pinch of salt.

firered SG

yup, i agree, its going to be quite chaotic if this happens so quickly...

"hey but if its true then how come a rec's pay higher then me,a pte!!! (although me in service sector lah), this is absurd!"<----- like me, sure got many ppl complain n enquire one loh..

lazydriver SG

S$500 so much meh ?? I heard only S$450 . Those Combat side will get like S$570 (news from 30th SCE)

BTW increase is good !! Laughing

Patrik SG

LazerLordz SG

If these is true, why is there no information distributed widely on a public basis?

wuming78 SG

yesterday juz met up wif 2 of my army recruit frens...
1 from tekong n the other 1 from 41SAR
both r recruits...
the tekong 1 told me that their OC confirmed that they will still be getting $350, the $150 increase is only after they get posted to their units after BMT.
that means private get $350 + $150 +$100 (if combat unit)
but tekong they will still be getting $350 only! Confused

then the 1 from 41SAR told me his OC told him they will start directly from $500 recruit pay cos they already in unit liaoz
my fren damn happy man...
he say is his OC confirm for them 1...
juz wait for 10th oct

so that's the difference between mono-intake n non mono-intake... Sad
i'm going tekong... Sad Sad Sad
