While Mindef is being a real cunt for rejecting the deferment, i can see why.

SINGAPORE: Granting Singaporean footballer Ben Davis a deferment from National Service (NS) because of his signing of a professional contract with Fulham would be "unfair" to other pre-enlistees, the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) said.
In a note sent to NS commanders on Tuesday (Jul 17) seen by Channel NewsAsia, the ministry explains its rejection of Davis' deferment application and said it considered the Fulham contract a "personal pursuit".
"Davis’ signing of a senior contract with Fulham FC is a personal pursuit, no different from the personal pursuits by other pre-enlistees like university studies or working in other professional fields," the note read.
"We know that football is popular among Singaporeans and the EPL has a keen following here. However, granting deferment to Davis would be unfair to other pre-enlistees who put their personal pursuits on hold to serve NS dutifully."
The 17-year-old midfielder has signed a two-year contract with Fulham, the newly promoted Premier League club announced on its website last Friday. Davis, the first Singaporean to ink a professional contract with a top-tier English club, turns 18 in November.

"A key principle of NS is that NS policies are applied fairly to everyone, including enlistment timing. All male Singapore citizens and PRs are required to serve NS at the earliest opportunity after they turn 18 years old, or after their pre-university educational pursuits," MINDEF said.
"Through the years, support for NS has been maintained because this requirement is applied strictly and fairly to all individuals. Long-term deferment should be allowed only in exceptional circumstances."
Citing the example of other NS-liable sportsmen, such as Irfan and Ikhsan Fandi, who chose to complete their NS commitments before pursuing their professional football careers, MINDEF stressed that long-term deferment is only allowed in "exceptional circumstances".
"For sportsmen, MINDEF only grants long-term deferment in exceptional circumstances to those who represent Singapore at top-tier international competitions (eg Olympic Games) and are assessed to be potential medal winners to bring glory to Singapore."
Recent examples include Joseph Schooling and Quah Zheng Wen, the ministry said.
"Davis does not meet the criteria to be granted deferment from full-time NS," it said, adding that the decision was made in consultation with the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth.

Why SAF so kumlan. Just announce that he would definitely be posted to the S League squad so that his footballing skills can be further developed while he serve NS. Win win what... Lim Peh should be the chief of army promote and promote when small soldiers die
S League is for the footballers who know they cannot make it, and have resigned to their fate of playing for pittance in shitty tropical weather.
I hope your family is already dead!
both you cunts should stop this nonsense and keep the family out of this pse - it's chap goh mei!
but you can cuntinue tomorrow, if that's what you want
And yet he is ahead professionally compared to useless footballers here. Thats the truthWhile Mindef is being a real cunt for rejecting the deferment, i can see why.

Well the entire team can be sacked anytime. Toiket paper soccerS League is for the footballers who know they cannot make it, and have resigned to their fate of playing for pittance in shitty tropical weather.
Nothing on the death of regukar recently?
SAF regulars are already dead as human beings, no need for further action.
We do not need Sinkies for sports. MIWs refer FTs for sports. Sinkies are to die for cuntry.
If Ben Davis stays put and don't come back forever, Mindef can't do anything to him. Stay out of Singapore, stay out of jail!
I hope he make it big.
Then get British citizenship that will really be a big fuck you to pappies.
Some relegation clauses also cut the players' wages once they are relegated. This would apply to players who are not wanted by other clubs.
Even if he doesn’t make it big, he’s better off outside S’pore. Our S-League is a complete failure. Can’t even compare with our immediate neighbours.
Is that why nobody sad for the suicide regular?
