NS is not a bad things if you see it as character building. Some young boy are too "weak", always play computer and spend most time in his room. They lack of character(other than their online game characters) they can't go far given the 2 years time advantage compare to those who go NS. having said that, not all kids who went NS must be successful but they do have a better character.

My opinion is 50:50 of success, okay maybe up to max 70% if you want it higher. (Just a pluck from air figure)

Look at all of those Malaysian working in SG now, do you think they are not as good as those Sgrean which went thru NS?

Btw, I wanted to ask something.
What is the approx MRT travelling time during morning peak hours, say around 8am?
For e.g. from Admiralty to Raffles, how long does it takes from station to station.
Thanks.

8am MRT will be packed like sardine

Oh well, the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.
There's no substitute on proper family upbringing, let alone left to the state do what one has failed to.
At the age of 16-18, most of the habits would have already been formed/ solidified.
To induce a "life changing NS experience" which can be for better or worse, is not something one would tie your aspiring kid to for 2 years; but a last shot to "re-form" a recalcitrant brat.

hi all, if looking for some job opportunity for a US MNC in Singapore:-

Some basic Requirements:-
1) Can speak Mandarin & Cantonese fluently
2) At least 2 years Customer Service/Call Centre experience

Can expect >$2.5k-3k (rough guess,maybe up to $3.5k), and no shift work. (Mon-Fri). This is a call centre customer service job, but i can say its not as hectic as most centres out there. <personally i think it's a great environment>

PM me for further details. Non Singapore Citizens/ non PRs is fine.
