Who has our data?

Law to catch up with NS dodgers soon

That was the headline of an article found on the newspaper. In short, they are out to get those people (fine them) who had previously dodge NS.

Remind me again, how long has the NS being set up? 6 years? Yes it is. And for 6 years there is not a system that can track down missing people? Well, that's not very surprising at all.

“We have already given their names to the police and we believe these are with the Attorney-General’s chambers."

This is what that person have to say and he 'believed' that it is with so and so. Means he is not really sure of this. Now, why can't they go straight direct to whoever that's missing and give them a fine? Of course not... We have too many 'bodies' which do not linked to each other.

I was just thinking. What happens when we commited a crime? And leave behind finger prints? Do the police able to track down the prints? Do they have access to JPN or do they have to go to JPN and search manually? These, we do not really know. Of course talking about fingerprints it is easy, auto or manual it gets done. What about DNA? yea sure they can get a hairs from our body, saliva or whatever but if they have no match to their database, how are we to be caught?

Likewise, those that got summon from their local council MPSJ etc etc do not have to pay their summons because they are not linked to JPJ like seriously how can they not do that. Oh of course they don't have a single system I presumed. I presumed that their own body look for their own supplier to develop system.

One of my friend did escape NS he kept deffering because of studies for many years now and one fine day, his record just disappear from NS database. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE???????

Oh well, NS is stupid. Really. Finally, Looking at the statement below, I understand why NS existed.

“They now know that this is not military training. In fact, more countries are now looking at our programme because it not only helps enhance unity but helps to instil the spirit of patriotism,”

Any 5 year old will tell you its stupid. patriotism in what? how is NS serving the country?

Oh wait, when war comes, NS trainees are suppose to help in war just like Singapore, HongKong right? But hang on a minute, if you can't track down those escaped from NS in the 1st place, what make sure you can track down those that have been to NS? Maybe you are right, you need to bank on 'patriotism'

Help! Singapore just toook the last land of Malaysia

Sometimes country affairs trigger my action to blog. Today is such day. I have been asked a few days ago, if Malaysia is at war, do we have enough army? I replied "We got lots of NS though!"

Today, I picked up the main paper of Star, I usually just screen through news, I hate politics and parliament, I think those are jokes. But the headlines was "LESS PHYSICAL (NS dept makes changes to training modules") What a move WAY TO GO DUDES.

Some pointers:

No more jungle trekking
Really? You think singapore Soldiers will come in using causeway to fight you ah?

Survival training or day navigation to be conducted under supervision in less dense areas;
Really? You think during war the best way to get supplies is by going to nearest fast food stores?

Marching drills or water related activities to be held before 9.30am and after 3.30pm
Iyoh kena pergi battle ke sarjan? Panas la ni. Tak tahan nanti pengsang oh.

Unarmed combat practice to be conducted in shaded area if whether is too hot
oh chop chop (telling a Singaporean army) "sorry ar, I don't carry weapon, can fight 1 on 1 or not? we settle this like MAN ... wait wait wait wait, can fight somewhere cooling ar? got air-cond betta..

Female trainees can choose NOT to take part in certain obstacle course activities
Er you tak mau ambil course ni ke? okla bila kita battle, you boleh tolong siap kan nasi lemak, semua jenis roti, ah bihoon goreng pun sedap, kalau tak leh, pergi tolong bungkus ramli burger. ah. can or not?

Weeker trainees to be given lighter exercises
Like instead of climbing stairs they take lift, instead of sit ups they do sit sit, "Sarjan, I don't feel very well la Sarjan, can I don't attend that? usually ni I punya sleep time."
