Nowadays new recruits are forced to buy insurance from their own pocket? Heard from someone today... is this true?
Some more the insurance can only be bought from NTUC Ins (where else?)
If this is true, it's damn sick man.... anyone got younger bros or kids going to NS now?

That's rubbish. I have a relative serving NS now and each soldier is getting a S$20 increment in NS allowance to pay for the insurance.

Somemore, the insurance company is Aviva, not NTUC insurance.

it is a good insurance

to help the family

definitely 4 stars buy if you expect to die young.

and better continue the policy after NS.

Agreed that its best to continue after NS as the premiums payable are low

those not in NS cannot buy that insurance.
also if you forgot payment, they cancel, also cannot buy insurance again.
when are you going to jump mrt track, so your family can claim insurance , like winning a mini toto.
