would you feel better if you were combat fit and allowed to go through what most of the other NSFs go through?Originally posted by kindaichi83:anyway, just to let you guys know, I am not even combat fit.. I am not even allowed to go range or do normal guard duties... so how do I protect my country? RUBBISH
All I ever do is to bring my men to clean up.. that's it... clean up and kio sai... total rubbish.. ok, I also help to carry heavy loads and arrange them nicely... wow so nice.. so clean... best logistics competition.. wow.. fantastic... yah, I also do paperwork.. which are killing trees by the doves.. how environmentally friendly the army is... OMG.. I LOVE THE ARMY...
if next time got enemies, I fight them with my well trusted broom, mop and spade... not to mention duster, cloth and fire beater... maybe I buried them alive with papers.. I got tons... so beware of me.. enemies of Singapore...
the only sensible person here is apollo11...
guys need NS to mature is the worst rubbish I heard.. what about the gers? are we so inferior to them that we need NS b4 we can mature? RUBBISH.. I don't that shit to be mature...
I totally agree.It is a dirty job, I do not like it, I never liked it, I do not have any respect for some of the people who do it but I respect the fact that they want to do it.You may not like NS or the SAF but you must realise that without this institution, we would very well be holding placards inviting everyone to come in and occupy our nation.We might suffer in the 2 years that we serve but and we may gripe and rant about the culture inside but in the end, when we have kids and are much older, we will look back and realise that now we do have a part to play in keeping the streets safe so that young punks can post in the comfort of their comparatively cutting-edge HDB flats.Originally posted by -zefiris-:USELESS CAUSE?!!?!!?! well fuck. if it wasn't for the SAF, you wouldn't be sleeping in your bed peacefully, if it wasn't for the SAF, you wouldn't be out clubbing and hooking up females like Mr.Slick. if it wasn't for SAF, we might be living under another country's flag. Wake up your fucking idea kid. No one is going to protect your home for you. YOU do IT YOURSELF. You don't know how it's like to have lost a loved one. Lost cause, my fuckin' ass.

Its the fking attitude la. From a 69 guy, I dont empathize with this guy at all, just like some 59 guy who will laugh at me if I said something about how I was treated in the army. Fact is, too many pampered cocks nowadays.Originally posted by sans-culotte:Ok..if it is really that bad as you mentioned, then too bad...you have to suck thumb. I can't really help you...btw how come u keep treated like this?? Since BMT till now..is it your attitude problem in the first place?? Coz from the way you describe, you sound like those outcast in army...e.g troublemakers...which will make ur whole platoon go against you..
If u hate the army, just keep it to yourself..don't show it to ur superiors and ur platoon mates...else you will be bullied..

BTW, how come a from-beginning Pes C can hold specialist appointment? Never knew that. Anyway, just suck it up and endure. If you cant even survive such a Mickey Mouse place like SAF, dont bother in the real world unless your father is going to employ you.
Because as far as Singapore is concerned, there is no free lunch. You want to be Singaporean, you are obliged to contribute to its defense. Its the Singapore Religion or the one that you belong to. Too bad, given your doctrine, you cant even declare a holy war against it.Originally posted by They:I have another reason to hate NS.
Both my parents were Yaweh's (more commonly called Jehovah) Witnesses. My father was born one and my mother converted before they married. That was before 1980 something when Singapore disallowed the religion. What did they do? No choice... have to stop open-practice of their religion and let their son (me) go for NS. In that way I feel NS sort of puts me in a dilemma. I don't want to break the law but I have to sing the national anthem, say the pledge and serve the nation. It reminds me so much of holocaust... persecuting a religion like that! My father was born and brought up with this religion. How can Singapore just say "You can't practice your religion."? I know there have been many protests before but I'm not strongly opposed to NS. If not for my complications, I would have thoroughly enjoyed it!
u are a JW?Originally posted by They:I have another reason to hate NS.

big deal..thats your problem n their problem..if they wana hate SG or hate the whole world..aint my buisness..Originally posted by Ito_^:i do not equate being forced into serving the nation's military as loyal as prisoners to jail cells. this.. loyalty MUST be shown by serving in ns to me is very childish and immature, as if we are like kids. you're probably the type that says all females are like milk cows, probably becuase they dun serve ns.
and wus wrong with complaining it out here huh. u complain about everything and someone comes in and share his opinion on things that you do not like, so u trash him and ask him to shut up?
let this guy let it out, else u will have one more sg haters, who is sg.
Please have some respect for ppl's belief even if it differs from yours. At least these guys have the 'balls' to stand up for their beliefs when they're enlisted and go 2 years of DB for declaring their faith... To me, they're no worse then some chao keng NSman who dig up some stoopid reasons to downgrade so they can get an air-con job...Originally posted by NathanG5:u are a JW?

Anyway, how much do you know about JW to call them a cult? Just because the government said so? Then how come Falungong is not banned in S'pore, but banned in China... It's all politics man...![]()
Then how about units where there are no NSF to help the regulars?Originally posted by kindaichi83:These and more are what make me hate Singapore... I never hated Singapore b4 I attended army.. but after that.. I hate the place for making me suffer... no one really bothers to help me... regulars getting so high pay.. we doing all their word.. bloodly hell... I HATE IT....
Bro, it IS possible for a PES C to hold a Specialist appointment.Even a PES E is eligible for Specialist roles.Go beyond the "cliched to death" infantry and guards specialist roles and you will realise that there are many other kinds of Specs.I'm C9L2 and a Specialist too.Originally posted by Xprobe:Its the fking attitude la.

That's the problem which this society has.It's been "brainwashed" to death that the official line suddenly becomes as holy law as something written in St.Peter's Basilica.The consequence of being a Jehovah's Witness is not light here, and it does not mean that if you do not carry arms, you are any less a productive member of your country.It just means that you do not believe in certain tenets.As long as you love your country, no one should persecute you.The Falungong are different, they do seem a bit off the deep end, but then again, I wonder where we draw the line before toleration becomes a knife in one's back.Originally posted by Cpl Ho:Please have some respect for ppl's belief even if it differs from yours.
