CB, you say what about NS?

I had a good laugh when I read this post on NUSWhispers.

So much so that I actually shared it on my Facebook (FB) feed and wrote “I look forward to reading the comments on Reddit later…”

Because national service (NS) is such a fraught subject in Singapore. Most Singaporeans appreciate the need for a citizen army, but there are many guys who consider NS a waste of time. These men often also think that it puts them at a disadvantage career-wise in comparison to their female counterparts who are able to continue their studies or enter the workforce and gain an additional two years of professional experience.
