Rncw 5th Gear August 13, 2011 Share August 13, 2011 i guess the only way to know whether those new citizens would fight for singapore is to go to a war....or start a war....there's no way of knowing during peace time...same for 'native' singaporeans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littleknown Clutched August 13, 2011 Share August 13, 2011 i guess the only way to know whether those new citizens would fight for singapore is to go to a war....or start a war....there's no way of knowing during peace time...same for 'native' singaporeans Agree. No way to know. And the people who stay and fight are those who cannot go elsewhere. War may be a real threat 40 years ago. Today, it is too expensive, too much sanctions, and we have no oil. So threat has decreased. But our defense spending has increased, at expense of budgets for health, education..etc. If defense spending decrease, can make healthcare free. My hope.

Whatisthis04 Neutral Newbie August 13, 2011 Share August 13, 2011 i recall long ago i once read that LKY once said that he doesn't trust giving arms to non-chinese races in NS; not sure if its true If LKY trust Chinese Singaporean, he would not have the Gurkhas contingent to guard his house. In the army, Malays will not be able to hold important security position. He is afraid that the Malays will turn their back if happen a war with Malaysia or Indonesia. But the Singaporean Malays have pledge they will not betray their own country and will die for it even if there's possible war with Malaysia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Singaporean Malays have pledge they will not betray their own country and will die for it even if there's possible war with Malaysia. Talking about traitors, who was the one working for the Japanese in WW2? And he has the galls to say whom to trust? The Malays in Singapore has demonstrated their loyalty and dedication to their country. Some specific old man on the other hand has demonstrated his willingness to turn coat and work for the enemy. So whowill you believe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expertz 1st Gear August 14, 2011 Author Share August 14, 2011 Are you serious about declaring civil war here? i'm talking about real battles, eg east timor or perhaps in the future when china finally reclaims taiwan, not civil war Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
