Scholarship threads always attract very virulent displays of "anger". Tsk.
TheMissus, kindly make your point without resorting to personal attacks.
Rest of you guys, please have a civil discussion or else the thread will be locked.
Thank you.
That is because Mindef have not distance itself from being the stepping stone for the few Elites as their political career. Singaporean are practical and therefore skeptism on their leaders both military and civilian. Until proven.
Peter Walsh report reconfirmed the observation.
"and by using a promotion system that is based more on education and scholarships than on proven competence." (Walsh ) Armed Forces & Society, Volume 33 Number 2, January 2007 pages 265
I am not sure if Mindef have reviewed that report and make any changes. Although we have our first Malay General.
Personnally....i think It is difficult for civilian force to prepare for single type of threats so, In time of War Elites or no Elites smart General will know how to motivate their man. It will be vertical learning curve. Those who can't lead will get their head shot off by their own man...... : )
foresight?
I dunno, but wat's going on these days are crappy
The recent NDP, contract could be given to a bus co tat does not have enough buses resulting in a sub contract to 3rd party to execute
I forgot they dun take public tpt for some
No doubt such schemes do get e best out of e population to become policy or doctrine planners, but it does not help if the selection process dun adapt with times

I'm surprised that what's-his-name hasn't turned up to brag about his boyfriends' SAFOS careers yet.
cut NS down to 2 yrs not good for you meh? which regulars did he flush down? those who are excrement shouldn't protest too much when the flush of the bowl gets them.

Well, it's just fucking funny that the SAF should choose a piece of excrement to command their East Timor contingent, isn't it? Were they fucking stupid when they chose him, or were they fucking stupid when they chose to backstab him? Either way they're fucking stupid.
If you want to talk straight, take your SAFOS boyfriends' cocks out of your mouth first, bitch.

what does this mean? maybe you can clarify as i could not understand your 'level' of english ie what you meant to say in the NDP thing. It is quite unintelligible.
You need to back up the selection process bit. it's a fine and the same set of barometers the powers that be work with for almost 40 yrs and is applied to not only the SAF but throughout the whole civil service.
Whoever's in charge of the 'buses', hahahaha in the NDP is not the chairman. Maybe you want to blame the useless people under him who somehow get promoted because of leaks - somehow if you stay long enough in any place, you get bumped up by default though at a lower rate than talented people. This is as prevalent in the private sector as it is in the public sector and is a fact of the world. The CEP system prevents such people from wreaking damage beyond their core incompetencies, while factoring the default ascension they get, acting as an effective ceiling ie shit plug.
It takes an irredeemably naive person to attribute the 'buses' at one NDP, I really can't think of anything more banal, to a larger system so complex and beyond his imaginable payscale and talk about its 'selection criteria'

Well said. hahaha. Where it comes from who doesn't know.. The only source of such irrational, torrid and tumultuous 'anger' over an issue unrelated to oneself, only serves the drive the disparity between yourself and 'them' greater.
Just look at Gedankan and how angry he is. It's truly funny hahaha especially how he thinks of fellatio when he thinks about people he isn't a part of. Would make anyone laugh their ass off Its as if he had given them several good sucks and later was spurned and jilted. Anyone who didn't know better would think that..Thankfully for mankind, such people are confined to a small segment of life here.
Someone should start a Scholarship Forum and have their little pow-wow there.
