Mindef: Allowing nsfs to charge their phones in camp will cause overheating

MINDEF: ALLOWING NSFS TO CHARGE THEIR PHONES IN CAMP WILL CAUSE OVERHEATING http://sgfuck.org/mybb/images/smileys_yahoo/laughing.gif

The following is a reply from Col Desmond Yeo, Commander, BMTC to a letter from the parent of a recruit asking why recruits are not allowed to bring chargers to camp.

What do you think?
------------------------------------

Recruits undergoing Basic Military Training at BMTC are not permitted to take along mobile phone chargers. At any one time, BMTC trains and accommodates a large number of recruits and has the highest population among all Singapore Armed Forces camps.

Mass charging of mobile phones would mean using multi-adaptors and extension cords, which increases the risks of overheating.

This restriction is necessary as the safety of our servicemen is of paramount importance.

BMTC advises recruits to have spare batteries or charged power banks with them to extend their mobile phones' battery life.

As the bulk of the time is spent on training, recruits are also encouraged to switch off their phones when not in use, and make short and essential calls during off-training hours.

If necessary, recruits may request to use the office phones in the duty rooms if they need to make urgent phone calls.

Family members may also call the 24-hour office administrative lines in the event of emergencies.

Colonel Desmond Yeo,

Commander,

Basic Military Training Centre, Singapore Armed Forces

Lanjiao lah! Back in the day when we were the first batch of recruits on Tekong, everyone in my bunk were charging their vintage large Nokia phones.

Just admit that you are too stingy to donate electricity.

They know about the obscene rates that Sing Power is charging for electricity

On a more serious note, these are the type of buggers that sit inside Parly men Houss and pass whatever shit they can think of into LAW. And they breed the same kind among themselves
.
I have always said. Inorder for SG to come clean and start anew. The whole lot has got to be booted out and out goes the lower rank kakis as well nd the Sinkie can then have a decent life living like a proper human being.

 

[Narong Wongwan]

Kns just say camp electricity is SAF Property and unauthorized use is theft and chargeable offence. Case close. Why need to beat around the bush?

Alamak... all the power stations in Sinkieland are privatised. If you don't make profit how to answer to shareholders?

knn, hq platoon even had an old 486 PC to play PC games and a full size fridge.

 

[Leongsam]

Why do trainees need mobile phones in the first place? They're supposed to dedicate all their time to becoming good soldiers.

Phones would be a distraction.

U never bring portable air con?or already got central air con?

 

[Satyr]

Funniest thing I heard. Are they also banned from boiling water for instant noodles ? If the electrical systems in camps are so decrepit, we need to ask what other dangers lurk in the buildings. I can't believe they can come up with such a flimsy excuse and and an insincere expression of concern.

 

[virus]

if pluck the handphone into MP 淫荡 cheebye, will the bitch overheat? can desmond prove that his dick is now fried by her cheebye?

 

[potter]

U can do anything in army, just dun got caught. Must be from AIR...level.

there was that occasional desire for msg-laden hot instant noodle soup one wouldn't get at the cookhouse. it carried over to my college days.

 

[Poomer]

Charging handphones causes overheating. Can you smell bullshit?
