About STAR...........

haha..sorry misunderstood ur post yuh...well there is nvr a cut off anyway =) I know =)
-
Ha...i went for the talk, the guy says failing rate is about 6/7 loh...then posters are given also but i never go take.
cut-off is random one lah...will follow the bellcurve like all things in this world, the peak maybe being 6/7...maybe the 95% is 9/10 and the 5% is 2/3 ? who knows. but definitely, not all will make it through selection, most won't. -
i think nowadays hor, its so difficult to get quality men they used to have in the past, be it SOF or STAR. you can always hear pple complain about serving NS....this so siong, that so siong....Originally posted by chunyong:wah lau, of cos i'm joking in my post lah...u have no sense of humour. plus who would choose people by ratio...if choose by ratio its not selection liao. anyway, the cut-off is abt 6/7 loh....SOF maybe 9/10 ? who knows
actually, cun compare STAR with SOF cause their job scope is totally different. Both also have their plus pts. Heard lots of good things about SOF. As for STAR not very sure. Can tell me more? -
All i can say is that being a policeman, irregardless of unit, is not easy....

i totally agreed with you. life is never easy, so enjoy yrself whenever you canOriginally posted by chunyong:All i can say is that being a policeman, irregardless of unit, is not easy....

I also agree. Saw police officers doing their duty round the clock during U.S president visit to the country. They are really pro, rain or shine still doing the road block. dugiOriginally posted by chunyong:All i can say is that being a policeman, irregardless of unit, is not easy.... -
ha....we do 12 hr shifts leh....plus reporting and knocking off thingy....14-15 hrs plus is not abnormal....so...stop complaining abt policemen, ha.

Just to share with you guys...
I used to work in shifts of about 26hours(incld mounting/dismounting), and under rain or shine, we still gotta stand in senang-diri postion for at least 8-10hours solid.
Next we book out for 10hours, book in again at the end of the day to sleep. This will continue for 1 solid month without any OFF day. Regardless of holis or CNY, we still gotta work.
And followed by 2 weeks of 'Chiong Sua' (Ruote marches/ defence exercises(incld trench digging and all the stand-2s/triple cons.... up to even 'chiong sua' sessions with mob4(if you guys know what it is, you'll know how it feels....)
And worst of all, I'm just a nobody-knows-who-the-hell-am-I soldier.
Just my 2cents worth -

Hmmm....which department are you exactly pointing onto?Originally posted by chunyong:Police NS, YES.
Sign on, NO, NEVER...
if u really want to sign on, ask those who ORD from Police NS. they can tell you what its really like. Imho, don't sign on unless you really know what u are into....
More specific? -
how can say out here, say liao i no need to live liao

the officer nearest to the camera is slightly wrong...should follow the officer furthest from camera, dats the rightway, frisk the suspect from the rear so that he won't know ur next move and to avoid most reprisal.Originally posted by bcoy:

Wan lan leh ... wayang for CAPEX kind of exercise also got it slightly wrong ... hahaOriginally posted by chunyong:the officer nearest to the camera is slightly wrong -
Did you all watch the news clip? There was a scene they showed black men dressed in UDT vests ... were they from STAR? Thought they should be the Jap ... or else play hijacker machiam too easy for them .. haha
-
According to the newspaper report, what the Japanese did was to land on the ship with their chopper and the officials search the ship or something like that.
-
The 'terrorists' are PCG NS boys play acting. STS provided the coxswains and they were using PCG's PJ class RHIBs instead of their normal assault boats.
