@jamesc will miss the buddy system dearly. SINGAPORE ARMED FORCES SCRAPS BUDDY SYSTEM WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT http://www.allsingaporestuff.com/article/singapore-armed-forces-scraps-buddy-system-immediate-effect by Wan Dao Liao, Straight Times SINGAPORE - Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) has announced it has removed the "buddy system" from its combat doctrine with effect from today (10 July). In a press statement to the media, SAF spokesperson reiterated they are constantly reviewing its training procedures to ensure the SAF is "keeping up with the times". The "buddy system" is a traditional military doctrine which requires individual soldiers to function in pairs during training and operations to ensure safety and accountability. "The SAF is concerned that the buddy system which requires individual soldiers to be devoted to another soldier interferes with their mental development," spokesperson Brigadier-General Yee Ker Xing replied in a e-mail interview, " We would like our conscript soldiers lead a healthy lifestyle that allows them to transit normally into civilian life after they completed their mandatory service." The latest move by SAF coincides with National Library Board's removal of three children books which were criticised by pro-family groups as "anti-family" and "pro-gay". One of the books, "And Tango Makes Three" is based on a true story that tells the story of a pair of gay penguins which incubated a young bird and regarded it as their offspring. "Finally the army wake up already!" cheered Lance Corporal Hock Kian Peng, "My instructor always tell me must eat, sleep and shower with my buddy you know! Then they forced us to sleep together in a small tent in field camp for 7 days you know! So gay!" However, Brigader-General Yee declined to revealed the upcoming changes to the training doctrine, citing operational concerns. "Maybe army should also stop telling me my rifle is my wife lah!", Lance Corporal Hock added, "I look at my rifle cannot stim, how to marry? how to buy hdb then claim baby bonus, you tell me? PAP give money you don't take meh? Siao." - See more at: http://www.allsingaporestuff.com/article/singapore-armed-forces-scraps-buddy-system-immediate-effect#sthash.00cH0DEW.dpuf

I have been reading a lot of those scandals which nearly peppered entire 2012. My curiosity is.... why are these always backdated like last year or in 2010? Why aren't the legal proceedings "current"? Unless ............. Could it be everything was consensual until the "victims" decided to emo mo mo and blackmail the "perpetrators"? Failing which they report to police. Winding down 2012. Chillax ah... just talk c0ck sing song since I'm on leave and just read the morning papers

as per thread, sounds like a showy thread but really to discuss the delicateness of human relationship when i say more, i mean at least 50% to a few times more. how do you handle it. does your boss bear any semblance of hidden resentment. and no i make much less than my boss,

THE driving licence of motorists who commit serious driving offences will be immediately suspended while they are being investigated, instead of waiting until they are charged in court. The move to give police more power to act against errant drivers was part of the changes to the Road Traffic Act passed in Parliament on Wednesday. In explaining the need for the change, Senior Minister of State for Law and Home Affairs Ho Peng Kee cited the case of a motorist, who had caused the death of a young woman sales agent while test-drving a sports car. The driver lost lost control of the car and caused an accident which killed the woman agent. The man was ultimately jailed for seven months for reckless driving and disqualified from driving for 10 years - 18 months after the accident. 'During this time, members of the public expressed concern that the motorist could resume his car-shopping activities, despite the crash and death of his passenger,' said Associate Professor Ho. He added that it was in the interest public safety that motorists be disallowed from driving during the investigation. But he added that 'immediate suspension will not be imposed in all cases where death or serious injury or serious damage to structures or building is caused.' 'Moreover, the suspension will be rescinded if investigations subsequently reveal that the motorist was not responsible for the offence or it is decided that the motorist will not be charged or that the charge would be withdrawn. In addition, an appeal can be made to the Minister within 14 days of receiving the suspension notice,' said the minister. source http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/S...ory_578946.html drive safe everyone....be a gentlemen signal when changing lanes and drive safe...
