Johnny, you are right about present and imperfection of the NS Scheme in Singapore. However, you must be reminded that National Service is essential and critical for Singapore. The time spent in NS is also good for character building for all Singaporeans. It has room for improvement - Yes. To be removed - NO !!!
That is the role of parents & not a self serving political party like the PAP which abuses their power to force Sporean males to waste years of their youth.
I know plenty who have voted with their feet & they are now happy living in places like Australia, Canada, US,... Many have 3 or more kids & that is something that would never have happened if they had stayed in Spore
