thought you'd know better .... people look for scandals there, not the truth ..... it doesn't taste as good ...
seems like SAF got a lot of dirty linen these days
unstoppable threads...
even fare hike.. I hate it..
But WP's proposal of zero margin nationalisation dun sound right.. In reality, zero margin is impossible unless you adjust fares on a daily or weekly basis.
Then one uni prof suggested hedge funds.. for wat??
Actually govt should start to foot part of e bill..
It sounds nice, but to execute it to reality... mmm....

I think it's just that the youth of today are getting softer and more selfish ...
and platforms like these give more avenues for them to whine ....
you should know too mah .... 99.99% of men would just serve and fark off .... it's the few that'll chao keng and kao peh that makes the most noise ....
I just find it so amazing that they cannot tahan NS training but got the guts and stamina to try to swim out of Tekong

the thing about MOs is that they get jaded ...
because so many who go to them to get downgraded are actually trying to keng .... I mean, c'mon ... if you have an injury, or were certified mentally unstable by someone else, the medical board would take care of it for you, neh ? ...
you won't go "hey ! I'm hurt worse than that ! ... downgrade me further !" ... or "hey ! I'm really siao ! ... I can't serve NS ! ... cannot take it ! how ? " ...
a siao lang won't tell you how siao or ting tong he is ....
such farkers, are spoiling the market for people who go to the MO for real needs ...

Ya lor that's uber crazy
I expect that he will be given a full psych evaluation.
And for his own sake, I hope he will be found to be mentally unstable, for a cell in DB would otherwise await him.
he'll die at the Straits of Johor for there are big vessels passing by.

I was good buddy with a senior medic and we often chatted with the NS MO ... he, the doc, enlightened us on several points of the whole thing.
point number one is that the medical community in singapore is damm small, everybody knows everybody ... chances are the senior specialist who downgraded one of the men taught you in medical school, etc etc ... so MOs won't overrule such things lightly ... cos you'll be going again someone who's much more senior than you in your professional community.
the most expeditious way is to kick it upwards to the medical board .... and if the medical board says boo ! chao keng ... then you can bet your arse the man was really trying to chao keng ...end of story ...
I never bought into any of those I'm injured and the MO won't downgrade me, or I'm siao, can't take NS, going made stories in the SAF forum ... you know how risk adverse the army is when it comes to NSmen, you think they'll fark around with you and be bloodyminded out of spite?
he can report to Sembawang Camp...
but wait, no... He'd better not carry firearms.

As it is, if not mistaken he was picked up at the extension of Tekong reclaimed area.
He couldn't get far as expected.
Even Mas Selamat used rubber tyre and coconut husk and the distance also not as much.

mmm.. true
yeah, that's what he said .... if the MO or the medical board thinks you're chao kenging or won't give you a lower medical status, you can bet your arse he's got bloody good grounds for doing so ....
it's not like the legal community where the relationship is adverserial ...
An MO's first instincts would be to think "did the more senior specialist doc know something that I don't ? saw something that I missed ? " ....
remember ... it's his ass too if he screwed up .... his medical career doesn't end after ORD ...
