Vase Jo Talk Cock again when clarifying her remarks on NS pay

[vtran2684]

If you have never served, be quiet!

 

[enterprise2]

The really great injustice is where a NSF gets injured or even die in some unfortunate mishaps. The compensation is really peanuts!! Just like that, life over!!

 

[SunCe]

why Vase Jo?

Misfortune can strike anyone at anytime regardless of their station in life. We live with the risks and get on with our lives.

Yeah!! Rite!! The risks of working in an office is the same as an infantry guy dealing with live ammo!!

The joys of public service is lost! Everybody wants to help themselves to the gravy tray!

"Service for the country cannot be measured in dollars and cents"

- Looks like this is a good basis for reducing the salaries of ministars and ministars of state.

They alr reduce 40% from the benchmark of top earners. Maybe it should be 60-70%!!

 

[Papsmearer]

It has nothing to do with the absolute numbers. NS men may be paid $3 but they're doing bugger all most of the time. I should know because I went through NS.

A PAP minister, on the other hand, is running a multi billion dollar economy.

Since u have never been a minister, how do you know they don't do bugger all either. Could be their underlings who do all the work.

The idle soldiers can be dealt with but in the meantime, the defense hardware and infrastructure still needs massive investment to maintain the country's operational readiness.

i think a bigger chunk is wasted on the stars, craps... .... i mean crabs.

if you add on the guarantee that they will later get stressfree, blamefree, million dollar c-whatever-o jobs after service, woow.... ..... i dunno what to say.

 

[tanakow]

Pls dont anyhow change TPL's words. She said Universal Studio not Disneyland.

Now the cock and bull story comes complete with the supporting cast of grandmothers and husband.
Tan Chuan Jin said he missed precious times with his father.
Tin Pei Ling's biggest regret was no time to bring parents to Disney Land.
Grace Fu said no time to spend with children.
Don't these clowns know that they do have a choice?

 

[songsongjurong]

 

[Confuseous]

They don't spend much time in parliament.
They don't have to bother answering questions from the opposition since.
They have many grass looters & assistants to assist them in running a small kampong like Spore.
They are allowed to do sideline biznesses on top of theiir gov't job.

They may be skiving rather than being over worked.

Some of them also have their handbags carried for them as they pretend to go looking for rats.

 

[rusty]

So now she is saying NS pay can be measured in dollars and cents.
How does she intend to do so?
Peg the soldier's pay to cleaner in the hawker centre, foodcourt or restaurant?

 

[po2wq]

she shud juz put it plainly ...

peasants r worth oni pasar-malam-kind peanuts ...

elites r worth durai-golden-tap kind peanuts ...

They like to play with words, thinking they are very smart and that we are daft.
They then come out with clarifications - and then re-clarify again.

 

[laksaboy]

The pappies can wax lyrical and get all choked up about NS, or use fearmongering to make the masses see Singapore's vulnerability and the necessity for NS.

But NS is conscription. Conscription is forced military service. That is forcing someone to do something against his will.

If you get down to the basics, NS is not that different from rape. Certainly, you can claim that NS helped you grow, you've enjoyed NS, it was a valuable learning experience etc. But the same can be said of rape. An inmate locked up in jail can also say the same things about the time spent in prison.

The social dynamics of Singapore have changed, NS is increasingly becoming a white elephant. The only reason why NS is maintained is so that it generates business for the GLCs and contractors.

Vote these MIWs out! Vote the PAP out!

sorry most of the cleaners you referred to earn much more and dun need to risk their lives, limbs, freedom.

 

[Leongsam]

As a result of the slew of safety measures implemented since NS first started, NS is now safer than working in an office.
