ALL lah, including me and my lau char bor.

You all ah, am confusing me. Can someone translate all the Chinese words for me? Seems like very interesting...

Reliefdriver4u SG

Later Chief of Army or Mindef come out ... hhahaaa

Reliefdriver4u SG

Maybe will also have Presidents, Kings or Queens or Monarchies , haha

JRII SG

Maybe I should have joined the army instead of Police? Sounds very fun all this rank and drama.

bowah SG

Different lah, police are more reality in nature, they hve to deal with real issue on the ground.

Army, in singapore context is like playing masa masa, if you ask any NS guys, if SAF can cut down the time of waiting and standby, which is nonsenically long hours of waiting, maybe NS need not to be 2 years, 1 years can liao

You are joking.

I was a man.

But my training itself took nearly 1 year before I could actually join my unit.

And after that?

Within half a year must start looking for new NSF to start training to take over me.

bowah SG

I might be from where I am coming from, my training take me 6 months, the next 1.5years, jiak ba yo lan pa,

and that is when I go take driving and motor licence, but of course mine time is 2.5 years, to do one exercise, we hv to standby for a week...

SAF must be productive, if some do not need to serve so long, better to plough them back to the economy or study so as to serve the society better, and also for themselves.

SBS2601D SG

Maybe.

But spare a thought for those like me who were trained to sail onboard ships. It takes a HUGE lot of training.

I do not wish to turn into the brave soul Jason Chee?

My heart went out to him when I remembered how all of us, NSFs and regulars risked life and limb each time we took to the seas to protect SGreans.

And when we returned each time, whence the thanks?

Instead we usually see how people say things like "no need NS", "SG damn safe", "NS waste time".

Seriously? The only reason why they can say that is because they never realise what lies beyond their shores.

And why? Because there are those who stand in the way of harm....for them!

Some branches of SAF are so woefully undermanned that they are forced to take NSFs even when it makes little sense to invest so much time to train them up, and then lose them.

bowah SG

The SAF is a total defence force, not an offensive one, most countries like South korea and taiwan train their soldier both in defence and offence. Meaning protect and attack, and they also served 2 years.

The argument here is after my 2.5 stint with SAF, which i manage to get even my class 4 licence which helped me to land a job by driving those casket lorries in the 80s and 90s, class 3 and 2 too, this show that alot of spare time could had been wasted and luckily I take some advantages out of it, exchanging with friends for weekend duties to go take my lessons. There lies another 13 cycles of reservist.

If I train you 1 year, you go back to study, then I call back for a month of revservist, which is more pro in a sense, wouldn't it be better than asking you to go on for another 1.5years for nothing, and end up the economy keep saying lack of workforce and need foreigners??

And to tell the truth, I find reservist is better to be able to get thing done than NSF, because all of us are more mature, able to work as team and hold more responsible to what we do and most important, know what is productivity.
