The Singapore Armed Forces will take in its first volunteer corps next March but will not be aiming for "mass numbers", Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen said on Thursday

SINGAPORE - The Singapore Armed Forces will take in its first volunteer corps next March but will not be aiming for "mass numbers", Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen said on Thursday.

He was speaking at a dinner event to honour 300 volunteers who serve on the Defence Ministry's 41 boards, panels and committees.

Noting how many of these experts contribute their medical, safety, financial and legal knowledge, he added: "Volunteers like you act as catalysts for the system. I am thankful that many of you extended your service voluntarily."

The SAF volunteer corps, which is expected to include women, first-generation Permanent Residents and new citizens, will strengthen the SAF's operational capabilities, Dr Ng added

Soon, we will have an Ah Neh volunteer battalion, a Pinoy battalion and an Ah Tiong division.

Do the PAP ever think? Ah Nehs, Pinoys and Ah Tiongs are here to rape the land. Train them and give them weapons will only facilitate the eventual conquer of sinkapore. Stupid ministers and scholars.

It IS a big wayang. I can smell the bullshit from far away, no doubt the handiwork of the 'Committee to Strengthen NS'.

They will be new Singaporeans who are in grassroots or YPAP. These are ready made porlumpars who are committed to the PAP cause and or looking for handouts and networking options.
