Unfortunately, kid ...
U do not have that ability to fly ur parents to a safe spot in the world when shit happens. Hence, when shit happens, u , ur parents, ur wife/girlfriend and other frens are still likely be in SG.
Hence, u would still need to risk ur life for SG, in order, to risk ur life for ur parents ...
then why asked the singaporean to go back for reservice and serve ns if sg dont need us to protact the country

Right, I just told someone this morning... Americans are apparently very proud of their country. In times of trouble, for Singaporeans, it would be "How the hell can I get out of this place, ASAP?"
If you stay and fight, it would feel like you are staying and fighting for the despots instead of the country.
It is like asking if you would risk your life for your company/managers.
Miracles&Prophecies if singapore dont need the signaporean to serve the 2year national service will u volunteer to serve the 2year????

Gary: He said to me at the lift lobby 90% of the exact words - ”Mr Tan,if you walk out of here tomorrow,you might get killed.You might meet with a mysterious accident,you might disappear and nobody will know what happened to you! Mr Tan, some things and people in this country you cannot offend! Some people are above all things! You better make sure you know this! Mr Tan,we can arrange for things to happen to you.You understand or not!”
Haha, wrong. I am a trained soldier who can fire most of the weapons in the arsenal of SAF and is trained in dealing with explosives and clearing of obstacles for the advancement of the war supply route.
Haha, comparing me to you? makes me laugh.

I will fight provided
- The next and subsequent winner for the GE is not LKY and friends!
- Country won't pay high for a president to sign paper and sell roti pratas only
- MPs must show that they are really worth that 5 digit figures.
- Prata man will give a wide smile at the NDP when the parade commander asking permission for march-pass.
- ERP cost and timings to be reduced
- Singaporeans can queue up at the GST rebate center that was meant for tourists
- We can be involved in "controlled" debate or peaceful protest anywhere and not only one place. If peaceful protest go out of hands, authorities can take actions since we paid for their salaries.
- HDB pigeon holes become bigger and cheaper for locals.
- Ministers eat with us at the hawker centers / fast food joints so that they know what ingredient should be inside what kind of local dish.
- Deceased president should have a proper state funeral.
- Trains and buses to have more seats instead of taking the seats to make way for more passengers to stand. If the govt is so "kiang" they can consider building a double storey underground train!
- Govt dun anything also law here law there. Even my cat fight with your dog must law here law there.
- 50% off all medication rebates?
- Abolish the rule on cutting off the life support system for those brain dead. They might wake up one day.
and alot more....

basically you won't fight loh...
Maybe your country will give exactly what you want if you live in Utopia. But than again, the government of Utopia will be so awesome that there will be no need to fight wars.
Fight for my family and friends yea, the country just happens to be part of the deal.

Haha... if they can really give me all these, i might consider to fight.

Makes me think about World War 2. Japan bombed USA, USA fight back. fair enough. But USA also sent troops to fight the Nazis in Europe. I wonder how the men going to war in Europe felt.
Is it a duty for their country? but they are fighting for other people, not for their own country. It's not really dying for your country, but dying for other people's country.
I think they fought with the belief that they are doing the right thing, and that the evil must be stopped. Or they just fought for their buddies going to war beside them.
So yah, friends and family is part of the deal.

duh. you want them to stay for what?

Tell you the truth, given a choice, even if they give you all that, you probably won't fight anyway. That's why fighting is like compulsory for NSmen. Don't need to give choice, just do it.
for regular yes just for it but not for the NSmen

Would have pretty spit in the face of the person who tells me to invade another country to defeat evil.
I wonder if those US troops knew they were going for Europe first when they signed up after Pearl Harbour.

I'm quite sure they were drafted.
