Good day.
Hi, I have a question to sign on as a Pilot/ WSO (/ or any position as deem fit) in RSAF.
However if parents have a police record to their names, will it affect the career application form due to military security clearance/ background check?
Good to go?
Thank you.
The Singapore system of meritocracy does not link any person's record to their family/relatives/parents...
We do not practice a class system.
There'll be security clearance checks when considering people's postings to certain units. While the method of assessment is obviously classified, it pertains mainly to whether you're in danger of compromising Singapore's national security to foreign powers, etc. (ie. it checks your family background for potential links to groups/people overseas).
Once again, your future is your own. Do not be unduly afraid or bothered. Nowhere in the govt system do they check on who your parents/relatives are and affect your future.
