i haven't been following your posts. but as sunday's post has implied, you have not given us enough info.puppet wrote:okay... so i've come to terms that i might have to serve ns even though it wasn't my choice to. How much will the penalty be?
Jail time?
What kind of jail? Maximum or minimum security? Or military jail?
Fine?
Or just simply 2 years of serving?
You can make the same statement regarding criminal record as law is typically different in different countries. Still ICA is interested in this record and this has nothing to do with being sovereign state or not. Moreover, if the said NS liabilities already prevent OP from renewing his passport he is clearly in violation of his country law and this may involve criminal charges. I would expect Singapore authorities may not be that keen of granting citizenship to people who are/or may use it to get away with such charges hanging over their heads.Mad Scientist wrote:SG is a sovereign state like your native country in itself. What other country does will not affect another other country laws unless in some cases like extradition agreement.
if you've gained residency status through your studies in singapore, you will probably be called up for NS...marsdog wrote:And, I'm turning 26 this year and I wonder if I will be enlisted for NS if I get my citizenship. I've been exempted as a PR as a first-generation, so called.
So it sounds like you gained it as a result of going to school here then. The letter you received while you were in school offered you Landed PR correct? Which meant that you would gain PR upon being offered a job. So yes, the odds of you doing NS are pretty good, although not guaranteed.marsdog wrote: I guess I've obtained my PR through work since I was only granted it after I've secured my full-time job.
My native country is Taiwan but I grew up here.
