Yeah sir I'm aware of the treaty since S'pore and US soldiers train together in Afghanistan. But what you are saying is that Singapore is vulnerable to countries with large military power, yes?
When I did my bmt, swim lesson maybe 1 hr.. warm up is maybe 40 minutes and remaining is pool time. Warm up exercises like jumping Jack's, pumping, crunches etc.. hahahaha body wet because of sweat not because of swimming wkwkwk
This made me very sad. I could swim, but not fit enough to make it across the pool during the test. So all my bunk mates were busy sleeping in their bunks while we had to go to the swimming pool for swimming lessons... and then more training afterwards. Sianz.
Thanks for your reply. Singapore should and CAN defend itself. In a limited way. It is capable of protecting its interests against Malaysia, Indonesia and somewhat from PRC. But the fact remains....the Untited States and Singapore ALREADY have a major 'defense treaty'. I'm not sure if you are aware of this, but the U.S. trains the Singapore Airforce and Navy (certain areas) and also agrees to defend Singapore militarily. Singapore and the U.S. are already strong military allies.Do u know that?
Nabei... last time SOC where got 1m step by step one... I remember the first time I ran the full SOC we have to jump the full 2m. And some of us nearly jumped into the barbed wire. This did not even come in until last year august or something when they revamped the stations in SOC sia.
The Singapore Military doesn't need to worry much. If the PRC or anyone else laid a single finger on Singapore, the United States would stomp the living shit out of them. First we would send 3 Aircraft Carrier Battle Groups to crush any air threats. Then we would land a Marine Expeditionary Group at Changi Airport to deal with any land threats. Singapore just needs to deal with Counter-terrorism, Counter-Drug, Cyber Defense and Border Defense. Anything more than that, the U.S. will step in.
To be honest I am an American living in Asia and I actually like Singaporean Military. BMT seems different from the US Military though. US they yell in order to get to realize this stuff needs to get done and thats constantly. I got DQed from US Army because of my eyes I have Karatoconus in my left eye. Still want to serve though if I can get an Operation done but it seems the US Army wont take me back. So I have thought about coming to Singapore for awhile. Dont know if they will accept-
Hello People. Im Currently 15. I need help. I Cant Swim And When i go to the NS will they force me to swim? Ohh and 1 more thing. Are Ns now so modernize? NO more Jungle? No more tents?
mmm....not actually true. America doesn't "meddle" in the affairs of Singapore. But it does provide a solid "backstop" / insurance policy. That way, Singapore doesn't have to defend itself, which costs a lot of money. Therefor, the Singapore military can be much smaller, leaving more money for other projects, like schools, subways, social benefits, etc. I don't think Singapore should ever be a slave to America. But I am glad we support Singapore, because it is such a great country.
Every gram of cloth or extras on U on ground is equivalent to 10grams extra in water. Thus in BMT it's a safety violation especially when these kids are just recruits just enlisted imagine if they die in basic training the political backlash PS: I ord two years ago was in basic training in 2014
@cyberpioneertv No dunking?Seems that now the welfare of the SAF is very good.My dad was so scared that I will be dunked into the water like that time when 2SG Hu En Huai from Guards died after being dunked in water,then he pushed me to go swimming,haha.
I appreciate your thoughts about supporting Singapore, but your opinion, if carried out, can be detrimental to Singapore. Singaporeans SHOULD defend themselves and not let foreigners do it for them since we are already exceptionally developed. If that happens, where is the pride of Singaporeans? And also the infrastructure of the country is pretty much well off. Don't take this as a personal attack bro. I'm just saying that what your view is really undesirable in Singapore's context.
They ARE being forced by their government, it's called mandatory conscription and that's what the series is based around, also fix your grammar I can barely understand your grammar.
+William Tailor no need lo!!!even white people can understand my english.....they understand my mother tounge not english...as long as people can understand me..more than enough looo!!!!sometime I dun understand why cina always want to be little people language........you are white man wannabe!!lolo!!!
zua rie But a tiny island has more military units than a bigger country like Malaysia?? And spends more on defence budget??? www.globalfirepower.com/countries-comparison-detail.asp?form=form&country1=Singapore&country2=malaysia&Submit=COMPARE Singapore has more tanks than Malaysia?? More artillery units? More attack helicopters? More Amoured infantry fighting vehicles (AFVs)? More attack planes? More fighter jets? More frigates? More submarines? Etc And this is just hardware numbers? I haven't even start comparing on the Technological Quality of these hardwares? So how come a tiny island has more hardware units than a malaysia? And Singapore's defence budget is the highest in SEA at 9.7B whereas Malaysia only spends merely 4.7B??? So I assume Malaysian soldiers are eating grass and shooting water guns? And of the low 4.7B budget, how much of it is REALLY spent on defence and not corruption? What happen to Malaysia man? Who's the pathetic one? LMAO MALAYSIA RENAME MALASSIAL?
zua rie MALASSIAL youths are busy leading their bodo dan malas life Your BMT is "3months"? And that's not even mandatory for all malassians? Singapore is 2years idiot Why your country's military is so weak like Babi?
The only army in the World where you will see 50% of the recruits bespectacled.
dang roger chen looks like he's reading off a script.
Everytime swimming lesson comes my whole section mates praying to the weather gods for a cat 1 so that we can lepak in bunk
Whole afternoon sleep in bunk is the life, same goes for reservist
That fitness instructor at the pool is psycho haha. Called us ladies last time haha
Roger Chen - National Serviceman.

Wow, you guys get nicer looking SBOs compared to the older ones, i am "kinda" jealous
Ok thank you!
The ratio of swimmers to non-swimmers were shocking, thought it would be the other way around
When I did my bmt, swim lesson maybe 1 hr.. warm up is maybe 40 minutes and remaining is pool time. Warm up exercises like jumping Jack's, pumping, crunches etc.. hahahaha body wet because of sweat not because of swimming wkwkwk
U guys are lucky u must come see school 4
@Robinhokage so lucky. I only have one semester left =/ BUT STILL!!! Cannot wait.
This made me very sad. I could swim, but not fit enough to make it across the pool during the test. So all my bunk mates were busy sleeping in their bunks while we had to go to the swimming pool for swimming lessons... and then more training afterwards. Sianz.

@xMrSam because Singaporean parents does not want them to have tattoos

Every gram of cloth or extras on U on ground is equivalent to 10grams extra in water. Thus in BMT it's a safety violation especially when these kids are just recruits just enlisted imagine if they die in basic training the political backlash
PS: I ord two years ago was in basic training in 2014

@h0lydoctor I always favored the grunts so I am going to go with the Army.
Don't call them non-swimmers, bludi-elves.. they are call divers.
you sound like a pro-US Singaporean. I don't think Singapore needs the US to be meddling with her affairs.

I can't stand the cpt chen's forced diction. hahaha
