Many thanks for this observationJennifer's integrity and diligence will put many of her male counterparts to shame.
I was attached to her unit during an armour exercise with her when she was a Company CSM. I saw for myself her direct participation and great sense of responsibility to ensure safety for her men, unlike their HQ CSM Nicholas Tan who did exactly the opposite and just interested in going back back for baths. LOL, anyway Nicholas got promoted because of his higher ranked relative.
Honestly, many regulars in army are just like pests and many NSF are more hardworking. Jenrifer was like a strict mother, never soft to her specs and men but I vouch that she cared for them like a mother. She never betrayed her men. During the exercise, her CO Lai Ching Kwang was a hypocrite and pretended to nice to her men but turned his back and asked her to charge them for an incident that was the fault of no one; she took the blame. In the same exercise, the RSM lost his carbine and the search party returned the rifle in 2 pieces. To protect his backside, Ching Kwang covered up the incident with the RQ Aw Shing Hock and STLog people so that the incident would not be reported to the assessors of the exercise.
On the other hand, the only other woman instructor Sgt Karis was nice and a damn chio babe. She would be the perfect angel, if she had said the same thing to the cadet.
Sgt Jennifer Tan was the more crude mouth female trainer. Scolded a cadet who blur blur ask where to insert the weapon parts. "You put where, put inside here lah"..
U cina say tan chiak peng ya. Her two children also sign on with SAF. So was her father. Very patriotic indeed.
hanor, way down there don't need vocab, just a pointed weapon will doI don't think its uni grad or limited vocab, she said that line while pointing between her No4 legs. Just plain crude!
Why she never try to be Officer?
How about the Military Expert scheme? Then she can be ME8 = BG!I think if convert to officer, max is Major right?
So isn't CWO more prestigious than Major? A lot of warrant officers are loafers, let her set a good example.
In her younger days, she used to train specs at tekong too.
SAF will be a more righteous organization with her as CWO.

ME is like another set of criteria. If you start at ME 2 or 3, you will not go far. Chief of Army, Navy, Air Force will never be a ME8 right?
If you switch to ME, you are a bit henta kaki. It is not that you are no good.
Then if you are in combat roles, when your host or join multi-national exercises, foreign counterparts don't understand your seniority.
For example if you are a 3SG, you see a MEx, you want to greet him as "encik", "sir" or "expert"?
Why must have Malay? R they qualified?Why no malay?
