Does it irritates you whenever you know that you have annual ippt obligation to fulfil with all the other things in life?

[articland05]

MR loooooOoOoOOoooooOoo

 

[2yearswastedlife]

ippt no. because free money. reservist yes

 

[Coaster]

Yes, but then explain why sinkies need to do this, while FT/PR can free load?

Why you assume, I thin FT/PR can "free load" ?

 

[Shion]

MR lo...no need worry...

 

[Visor9999]

There’s alway RT, where got just 1 hour wasted

 

[Scarlet Tea]

That’s why I tried to do all my ippt during ict. Only did my ippt twice outside cos training schedule packed

 

[cet87]

if can 1 time pass, no problem.

if failed, its the RT that eat your time.

 

[kendrick272]

heng i completed my cycle before 32yo.

 

[messidona]

Because we live in a peaceful region, we think all these are extra burden.

That time I told my civil servant friend sg got too many ntuc FT. He said I racist. He told me he he prefer ntuc FT to amdk lol

 

[mickey88]

That 1 hr can be used on other things then go there squeeze with all the fellow 苦命人.
I'm sure many ft doesn't need to do that.

Use the 1 hour and see how many more buay kan than you..

 

[ramlee]

Yes, but then explain why sinkies need to do this, while FT/PR can free load?

It’s a privilege, they say

Finally, you stop beating around the bush and get to the point.

 

[Fightfat]

NS is a privilege not an entitlement.
You will miss it when you MR.
NS is the only thing that foreigners are jealous about, they know nothing about it , that's why you see them volunteering in volunteers corps although they may have other motive.

 

[Chisaigyu]

No. There are 365 days in a year and all you need is 2hrs during one of those days. You telling me you so busy that you can't commit 2hrs per year? And its not like you go for free they will compensate you for your efforts accordingly. For decently fit people, which there are many, its free money.

 

[RSKeisuke]

you only hate it if you struggle to clear... for others, we see it as annual free money

if you have been taking good care of your fitness, don't even have to prepare much

 

[Dr Stephen Strange]

Actually now the test requirement so low, even for me who only run once a year during IPPT, can also get money.

 

[li9ht5peed]

i wish it was a life long obligation until you uplorry

Agree. It's relative. People in Israel are living on life's edge, not knowing when another surprise attack would happen, and who would be the next to be killed. The same for Ukraine with Putin's relentless attacks.

The Scar of Separation has not healed and will never heal. Malaysia still refers to Singapore as "the island we lost". Does Malaysia want Singapore back? Bring us back in the Federation, and instantly, we all become Malaysians or jhks? For sure, they do! But on their terms.

Malaysia and Indonesia are friendly neighbours?

In his second term as PM, Mahathir parked a boat at our water. What does that mean? There were so many other provocative actions. If our men only know how to fight with chairs and tables, we would be in serious trouble if invaded. We need to prove to be a poisonous prawn, that our neighbours would not even think once, twice, to invade.

If we don't defend ourselves, who will? The US? China? Who?

It's true that foreingers do not need to do NS, and at the first sign of trouble, they would be on a flight to flee. They will not stay here to defend this country, not even those who are PR. Yet, we need them in our workforce because of our low TFR. What to do...

 

[DragonFire]

Pass that IPPT. It is but 1 day a year. Gotch money to take somemore, and health to go with it for years to come.
