National Slavery
it has been 7 months since I ORD but the bitterness, rage and hatred I felt from National Service did not a bit fade away. these negative feelings get amplified each time when
1) I hear PAP Ministers and MPs claim how much they "sacrificed" for the Nation(only to be remunerated with ridiculous paycheck)
2) I see foreigners outnumbering Singaporeans in any places be it public transport or a restaurant.
we NS men are forced to sacrifice our youth and time to Singapore but what do we get in return?
tangibly,
1) some fucked up SAFRA membership that we have to pay(the benefits is meager and pretty much useless). shouldn't it be free?
2) a fucked up Certificate of Service which is of no market value but to remind your employers to pay more for your fucked up National Service
3) 10 fucked up cycles of In-Camp Training
4) your university places reserved for foreigners and PRs who don't need to serve NS(and a big FUCK YOU to all PAP members who told me the PRs' children will need to serve NS)
5) your salaries depressed by foreigners
6) your jobs snatched by foreigners
7) your salaries cut by 34.5% because of the fucked up CPF system with a fucked up 2.5% interest rate that lose to yearly inflations and a fucked up Minimum Sum which you can forget about reaching and a fucked up Withdrawal Age which is forever increasing(since fucked up studies by PAP claim you live longer means you have to be fucked longer) and a fucked up rising property price which suck your CPF dry and 2 fucked up sovereign wealth fund companies who never fail to chalk up billions of losses
intangibly,
an overwhelming tirade of sadness, an unprecedented magnitude of bitterness and utter disappointment for the Singapore system.
what difference are we from foreigners except from all the disadvantages?
why are we NS men penalized for sacrificing? (I'm not even asking NS men to be advantaged at!)
why are we NS men taken for granted?
why PAP?
as the normal Singaporeans saying goes:
serve NS for fuck. indeed.
It is a curse to be a Singaporean.
p.s. please don't mind my vulgarity. I am a soldier afterall. fuck!
