  we've been told that no one is getting any because the unit is bankrupt.

  i think overseas allowance only for attachment for a pre-determined period of time.
  
  if you go those 1 week or so only dun haf. only those like the tsunami go for weeks and weeks or peacekeeping for months den i know they will give overseas allowance. not too sure wat is the min. length of time though
  
  anyway overseas allowance is from MINDEF side. nothing to do with unit. so unit bankrupt MINDEF will still pay overseas allowance if you are eligble

  wait for Mr Tan.

  they make sure they reach singapore 2 or 3 days before the 3rd weeks.
  what i heard is more than 3 weeks than have oversea allowance. so dun expect to have any. even if you go for more than 3 weeks also dun have. my friend went for 1 and a 1/2 month overseas also dun have.

  For overseas EXERCISE....
  
  NO additional allowance but next month's allowance brought forward to current month.
  
  For overseas DEPLOYMENT.
  
  Allowance usually up to $800-1000 for non-commissioned ranks.
