  not necessarily true - sense of national pride, identity and loyalty are not necessarily instilled only through ns. in fact by the time one goes to ns, i would say one has pretty much made up his / her minds wat he / she feels about the country.
  
  in fact for some guys, ns makes them lose their loyalty and all.

  Is loyalty everything?Hopefully we haven't reached a state where we are all supplanted to serve the Orwellian ideals of blind loyalty.To be who you are, and to the fullest, while adding to the diverse mix of personalities that enlivens the nation, now that is loyalty...Not some chest-thumping Philistine..

  loyalty is not everything. and loyalty does not need to be blind. it is afterall a concept, an idealism. one can be an individual yet possess loyalty - they are not mutually exclusive. as for wat constitutes loyalty and how one shows it, its a different matter and different people would have different perceptions on this.
