negative. To share with you all youngsters, here goes:
1994 went to ROC as NSF. Advance party somemore. Winter somemore. Cold like fuck. Confirm at that time already had 'call gals' following SAF troops ( your eyes must be sharp to findout ). These gals fetched around by their OKT, hint ( Black Honda Accord ).
1996 went to ROC for the 2nd time but this time as NSmen aka Reservist. That year and month also the same time PRC shooting missile over. ( Or was it 1998? ).
1998 went to ROC for the 3rd time and while R&R in the hotel hugging my team mate sleeping ( joking lah ), hotel shake shake! Earth Quake! Famous and hot news in ROC that time. But not sure over in Sg news got report or not but what the heck, continue sleeping lah.
2002 suppose to go ROC but cancel due to major parts of areas SAF deployed heavily damaged by earthquake sometime back, the famous 928 earthquake. ( correct number or not? ).
2004 step down as I completed my last ICT.
2005 waiting for my first ever B.I.T

Any SAF trooper who went to ROC sure turn into a super Hum-Sap becos of culture shock. Way back in 1994 you still can find tiger show stage at the road side! No joke.
