FYI, PES is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PULHHEEMS.
Questions on how to downgrade, where to find doctors for downgrade, chao keng and malingering will be modified.
Extracted from here:
NSmen must update their NS HRCs if they should develop any new medical condition or if their existing medical condition has worsened which might affect their ability to perform their duties during ICT. Arrangements will then be made for them to attend a medical review at the SAF medical centre to assess their fitness for NS.
The NSmen MUST bring along all investigation results and memorandums from his external physician/specialist during the medical review. Depending on the outcome of the medical review, the NSman may be given a medical certificate to defer him from ICT, be scheduled for a medical board to downgrade him if his medical condition is significant, or referred to a restructured hospital for further investigation. In the event that the medical officer determines that the NSman’s medical condition will not affect his ability to participate in the ICT, he will allow the NSman to attend the ICT.

Upgrading Or Downgrading Of PES
(From Admin Point Of View)
Downgrade To PES C/D/E (Perm or Temp)
Downgrade to a certain PES status will mean that you due to your medical condition you are no longer fit to be in your current vocation.
This means that you will be re-vocate to a vocation that suits this PES status.
1.) Re-vocation is done by the SAF and not choosen by the soldier.
2.) Re-vocation depends on PES grading.
3.) Re-vocation will also mean you can be re-depolyed to another formation, unit or camp altogether.
Upgrade From PES C/D/E
For: Enlisted as PES E or Temp PES E Status
PES E Upgrade to PES A, B or C will mean a re-vocation. You will be required to take your BMT in accordance to your PES status (in Tekong). And subsequent Re-vocate to your new vocation.
PES A/B/C Downgrade/Upgrade BMT Recourse
This section is applicable to those who downgraded or upgraded to any of the PES A/B/C
1.) If the person completed and PASSED his BMT course then dun need to recourse liao. This applicable to those who downgrade/upgrade after BMT.
2.) If the person completed but FAILED his BMT then recourse is a must. This is regardless if he is downgraded or upgraded. As long as u neber pass ur BMT u have to redo again. Of course in accordance to ur PES status.
3.) If the person OOC during BMT and downgrade. Then yes, u must go for recourse. Yes, even those OOC just before the POP. No choice.
This is because, u neber complete and pass ur BMT.
4) PES C Need to do Reservist?
Yes.
5) PES E Need to do Reservist?
Maybe, if need.
Put on Reserve Holding List (RHL) =/= Mindef Reserve (MR) / Stand down
Will try to add in more, others can help, cause me also abit rusty liao.
