Two years of NS for Singaporeans, a short 30-day holiday camp for new immigrants

NS was a 'sore and critical milestone for many' and Mr Seah Kian Peng wondered if men who become new citizens should be called up for NSmen duties.

"This could be in the form of a short 30-day induction to Basic Military Training in the Singapore Armed Forces, he said.

We teach them to use rifles, fire weapons, basic physical fitness, or we put them into civil defence training where they could learn rescue techniques."
