Is it possible to go holidays overseas while serving the ns?

Depends on vocation. You are entitled 14 days leave per year anyway.

like ur u saying u be goen for 5 days but exeeds it,what happen?they deduct or is there mroe comings? -
well, theres this term called AWOL... however, if your flight is grounded and u r affected because of it, i dun think that u'd get into trouble.Originally posted by 0lala:but u have to tell them how long ur be gone right?

If its unforeseen circumstances, you will have to inform your commanders immeadiately!! They will understand it.Originally posted by 0lala:but u have to tell them how long ur be gone right?

They wont cheat your leave. You can always check with your clerks handling the leaves to check your balance online.Originally posted by 0lala:I will tell them to be careful -

Of course you can go overseas leave for your holiday during NS.
Just go and fill in the leave form.
In the form you must tell them where you are going for holiday.
Before you do so, make sure you check with your commander first and get their approval.
Don't bother hiding that you are going overseas, if you get caught you will be charged with either AWOL or exit permit violation.
It's not worth it, just get permission and take leave. -
well.. if your leave is not approved due to ops/manning requirement or you got recalled half-way. tough luck.

I went overseas every Christmas during NS too, Sabah in my 1st year, KL during my 2nd Christmas..and Australia two months after that during CNY before getting ready for ORD.Originally posted by mhcampboy:No they dont.
I went for a holiday to adelaide during my first year of service.
Campy is right, it depends on your vocation and appointment though. And you have really plan your OL to cover contingencies like flight delays and etc.. -
go Iraq can?

i have a Malaysian friend who went back to Malaysia during his ORD leave. just as he was about to come back, he got dengue fever and spent another 2 weeks recovering in Malaysia.
His parents even come to camp to explain the situation to my encik. in the end the unit accepted his overseas MC.
which brings me to a question. like in the case of my friend who fall sick overseas, will SAF accept oversea MC? -

At most they will ask the MO to verify... -
If it's a legal MC, they will usually ask your unit MO to endorse it. And if you have people that can witness you were hospitalised overseas, even better.Originally posted by Gordonator:i have a Malaysian friend who went back to Malaysia during his ORD leave. just as he was about to come back, he got dengue fever and spent another 2 weeks recovering in Malaysia.

It's not that bad, what you are kinda indicating is as if everyone is out to get you. Typically, most people couldn't care less if extra one day or mc or whatever, unless you blacklisted and then everyone want to target you jia liat jia liat.
I always buddy with my commanders previously, so I never worried. -
Try to let your boss/superior know from that foreign place, at least they will know what has happened and won't mistakenly label u as AWOL.

on the above points it is stated in the MP-GOMs... my notes are back in singapore but here's what i remember....
To go overseas, service personnel MUST take leave OR off if the overseas travel is for non-service related reasons.
Service personnel's leave or off does not equate to having an exit permit which must be applied separately.
Some units insists that you apply leave even if you actually don't need to.
On foreign MCs, there is a directive that permits service personnel to submit foreign MCs. But it must clearly bear issuing clinic, address and doctor's name. Doctor must be registered to practice in that country (duh). -

if less than 48 hrs, you dont need an exit permit. JB or Malacca should be fine..Originally posted by monoslayer:'off' cannot go overseas leh...
