MP, during your BMT, if you are picked for MP interview. YOU WILL be MP if you decide not be a commander or fail to qualify for a commander.
You MUST be a Singaporean, have clean and cleared security check, and no tattoos.
MP better or commander better? Can a MP govern a commander?

Some criteria i would believe is at least 1.7m ( I am 1.7 n the lowest around ).. No tatoos allowed and clean backdround.. Prefered if u excel in your studies.. There are many MPs from reputable JCs or even scholars..
Express Great interest..
what does 'clean background' mean? is it that you cannot be a ex-convict?
do they want ppl who were not born in Singapore but are citizens?

Very difficult to get in the Chinese military though, from what my friend has told me. They have such a large talent pool, that to get in you really have to be best of the best, super fit.Even wearing glasses eliminates you instantly and automatically from the selection process.
oh, my friend has perfect eyesight and is one of the two people in our class of 35 ppl who do not wear glasses.

Wah then he quite 'lucky' wor.
Wish him all the best in charging up the hill!
Haha.
Yeah quite 'lucky' in that sense lor. but as mentioned earlier, my friend has the freedom to give up his PR-ship in order not to serve NS next time, if he feels like doing so.Also under the "foreign student scheme", this will not result in him being punished by the garmen. If he gives up his PR-ship, then he may have difficulty applying for student pass next time in Singapore.
But my friend said that he "looked forward to NS" after the garmen organised a visit to the BMTC for him this year and he found his IMT result to be quite good, which may have boosted his confidence in NS.

what is so great and good about the ruling party that people wanna be PR or citizen. Your china govt is better in taking care of you people. When you people get old, china govt pay you pension, if you get old here you will not be receiving pension. The PAP gahmen make you pay for insurance and you are only allow to draw the money at age 80 and above. 70 years old and above are allowed free travel on public transport and in Singapore when you grow old, no money no talk.
i've been to China b4...even their state media has many good things to say about Singapore u noe...so our country is portrayed as a very clean, positive, upright, dynamic, wealthy and civilised first-world society. of course many PRC like SGP lah

PR only wad. can renounce it and go back china as and when he wishes. somemore he will not have to serve NS as he is first generation PR.
if he is smart, cling on to his PRC citizenship, and remain as a citizen of the world's future superpower.
my friend needs to serve NS too even though he is first generation PR because now the policy has changed.
according to my friend, the ICA says it is compulsory for him as first generation PR to serve NS under this "attract foreign talent" scheme. den my friend visited the BMTC already...
but my friend can choose whether to serve NS or not. if he chooses not to serve NS, then his PR will be taken away and it will be hard for him to apply for a student pass or etc. next time in Singapore
