Knoobie Supercharged September 30, 2013 Share September 30, 2013 (edited) Count urself lucky then to get into a holiday chalet for ns. If u get a rifle/guards/ce or commando u dont get to sleep in the bunk for half of the serving yr....and lunch/dinner in camp is a luxury and u will learn to eat using a broken off styrofoam box. Even the storeman from this units has it tough. hahaha.. that's true.. but those units you mentioned are the minority mah.. most of us just got in to those normal units where life is isn't that miserable.. or rather, relax.. in fact, i wish i was able to doing all those tough stuff since it will be quite an eye opener.. didn't have the chance to..

Even the storeman from this units has it tough. But these guys comes out usually are tougher and stronger (in character), and more confident and independent. And their friendship with their buddies also stronger! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knoobie Supercharged September 30, 2013 Share September 30, 2013 and if my kids do go back and do NS in MY...surely get tekan like hell....can't speak a word of malay... yup, you get my point... that's why if he's a boy, wait for SG NS and serve and convert SG citizenship. Otherwise, he will still be called up even he is PR. Imagine I renounce liao my relative in KL say my name pop out in news paper again after so many years. If shes a girl, then I don't know how to help you liao... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shull Turbocharged September 30, 2013 Share September 30, 2013 ehh.. but I feel MY side the "suffering" make the serving more like military.. Singapore one is holiday camp.. good food good bed... any time ask mum write complain letter sure win... Ya.

Shull Turbocharged September 30, 2013 Share September 30, 2013 Was your Dad disappointed when you came back to do NS and take up SG citizenship??? Nope. after i move back from Jakarta in 1999, his plan was for me to take up SG citizenship ultimately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishcumstrue 6th Gear September 30, 2013 Share September 30, 2013 (edited) A friend of mine was asking. For those kids who are below 21 and took up SG citizenship, they are not allowed to renounce their MY citizenship until the age of 21. I wonder will they be picked to do MY's NS or not..... Since we are also in the same situation, I'm curious to know too... Anybody has such experience? everyone's gotta pay their due, one way or another. If want to enjoy benefits from both countries, then jolly well contribute back x 2. No free lunch. My 0.01 ringgit.
