It goes up to MINDEF level (Medical Corps). Their job is to more bureaucratic -- i.e. decide on your Pes status -- so your medical docket would full of relevant MO notes, GP/specialist reports, & any further SAF test results by the time it reaches them. You may also be subject to interviews, so bring along all the barang you have. Takes a very long time to get 'boarded' but once the day arrives, the final decision is relatively quick & definite. In that sense, it's like attending court: most of the action is done behind the scenes & during the run-up, with a final judgement on the day itself.
