ST Forum: Recognise NSmen With HDB priority

[Scion]

Some second-generation permanent residents who have served NS but opted not to take up Singaporean citizenship should also be allowed to buy new and resale HDB flats to recognise their contributions to the defence of our nation.

 

 

got such cases meh?

 

you mean MY PR can serve NS, obtain significant military info on how we defend against country X, and still opt out of citizenship?

[Little_prince]

c--k suggestion. every family nucleus sure got a sg male that serve ns.

 

if everyone gets priority. end up the queue still as long.

[Mazdaowner]

I'm also mixed.Hakka and Hokkien

 

Yeah, and when I speak Hakka to you, you go Huh? [laugh]

[Mazdaowner]

if we protect our citizens first, foreigners will recognise and will even want to come here. that we can pick and choose who we want. not all the tom dick and harry.....

 

Ah Ball, very sad is, even our own citizens look down on our army boys and personnel.

My son serving NS took MRT back say one group of school girls say out loud,

"Hey don't stand next to them (NS boys) I dowan to be STOMPED!"

New citizens with male children also should not be left out. Those who have sons eligible for NS soon should be allowed to buy new and resale HDB flats surplus to market requirements.

 

i already say the writer may not be home breed singaporean -_-

Yes, most likely writer is converted new citizen. He no need serve NS (his son probably need), so it won't affect him, hence make such a suggestion.

 

Actually the onus should be on the male children eligible for NS as a criteria, not on the parent. Some parents convert to citizen but not for their children....

[Zniper]

now tis one very gd reason and suggestion... seriously Y-gen until age of before 40 are very unhappy with the way we are being treated... 90% dun feel tis is home and so y the need to serve and waste the 2yrs???

[1fast1]

Isn't that called cohabitation?

 

Yes. But some call it "living in sin". Which is why I made my comment. I call it "try before you buy".

 

It's like the old joke where the old man tells his psychiatrist: "I loved a wonderful woman for 50 great years. But it's over now."

 

The shrink asks: "Why, what happened?"

 

Old man replies: "I married her."

Same goes with trying out a condom and finding out it leaked.
