Nowadays NS realli like that?
-
My cousins who went in NS last year and last last year told me...
There's 1 SAF hotline where parents can call and complain... then the personnel will annouce on the speaker... to everyone...
For example: Your mother calls the SAF hotline to remind you to cal home, then the personnel will annouce on the speaker to the whole world, "John Tan, ur mother called to remind u to call home, if u dun call home, ur mother will call me!"
Then they also said, there's no such things as late night wake you up to train liao... and if they do, do that... and you go back home with a black eye... not enough sleep... ur parents can call the SAF hotline to complain...
Then they also said during training when you really very tired liao, they won't push you to the max 1, they'll ask you to stop.
They they also said if you can't swim, you'll have to wear a red band, so they'll specially protect you and teach you swimming... but infact, they bring you go play water...
Then they also said if you not happy with the food, can go canteen buy...
Then they also said the officers not so fierce, won't shout shout at you unreasonably 1...
Nowadays NS so civilised 1 ar? Like summer camp... then they keep reminding my parents, if anything, your son suffer or what, you not happy... call the SAF hotine!!!! -

The present training system is geared too much in protecting the soldiers.
I believe that the instructors see no point in pushing the NS enlistee which, in the end, will be complained by the parents.
The instructors will be punished for instilling discipline.
Eventually, the range will be air-con with computerised system and without any bullets so that the recruit and the instructor will not be hurt accidently.
In the end, the original NS system will collapse. -

do note that your commanders can also call your house to complain.
"why your son is so pampered? why your son is so spoilt? why your son everything must be spoon-fed? why your son cannot take a little bit of hardship? and etc." -

agree agree!
haiz.. if only they are willing to enlist the local girls, local guys dun have to worry anymore. girls will know what hardship means. -
This is unfortunately the kind of constraints that the SAF has to live by in this day and age. What with the abundance of over-protective and vocal parents...
The situation can only get worse, not better. No one is ready to uphold the adage of "train hard fight easy".... -

You are exaggerating....... let's see:
There's 1 SAF hotline where parents can call and complain... then the personnel will annouce on the speaker... to everyone...
LOL................. No.
For example: Your mother calls the SAF hotline to remind you to cal home, then the personnel will annouce on the speaker to the whole world, "John Tan, ur mother called to remind u to call home, if u dun call home, ur mother will call me!" LaughingThen they also said, there's no such things as late night wake you up to train liao... and if they do, do that... and you go back home with a black eye... not enough sleep... ur parents can call the SAF hotline to complain... Rolling Eyes
That's true......... SAF now by right wants to make sure everyone gets 7 hours of sleep daily...... of course by left it doesn't always happen but now there are no such things as wake you up to train.Then they also said during training when you really very tired liao, they won't push you to the max 1, they'll ask you to stop.
They wouldn't ask you to stop......... the way it works is if you want to stop they let you stop.They they also said if you can't swim, you'll have to wear a red band, so they'll specially protect you and teach you swimming... but infact, they bring you go play water...
100% true......Then they also said if you not happy with the food, can go canteen buy...
No. You need permission to go buy food from canteen. You can caught something bad will happen to you. At least this is what happens for the eariler part of your NS life...... in the later part you go canteen no one will care.Then they also said the officers not so fierce, won't shout shout at you unreasonably 1...
Most officers nowadays are indeed not so fierce, although there are exceptions.
Look here, nowadays NS life is a lot more relax than NS life in the past, but unless you are in some white horse company you are not going to attend a summer camp. There will still be a certain amount of **** involved. -
