Well he could have sued Mindef and all those responsible for MILLIONS for his pathetic plight...
But as a Sinkie living in a Pappy shit hole with cronised system, he knew he got shit chance of even seeing a dollar as compensation.
So as a loser Sinkie, he chose to play along with his Master wayang, hoping to gleam a hope of 'compensation' not anywhere of monetary value to himself.
A term loser is too much of a consolation for him.
