I am not from the countries you mentioned but more advanced countries if you want to know
Though we came here on a job opportunity for my husband, then slowly liked here and then got PR.
I got no qualms about my son doing NS.
My only concern is about his health.
This has been bad part of me to post, since my post has been posted to many websites like transition, independent etc by some almond2009.
So shocked when I found out.. I shouldnt hv posted my concern here.
Would like to check with admin on how to find out that our posts will be secure and used any where?

Unless you are from a country like India, Bangladesh, the sort, ya know what I mean, wouldn’t your country of origin afford you a better future given that Singapore is a microstate, you are not from here so don’t enjoy established family ties as incentives to put up with all the difficult issues like NS and your son has special needs.
It’s really funny to see all these strangers to OP cheerleading for a single goal - to retain the Singapore PR and having the OP’s son perform NS with special needs when they are not originally from Singapore without even considering anything else. The biggest factor among all the “everything else” is obviously what kind of options OP has. And nobody bothered to ask before piling on their “ advice” for him to invest two years of his son’s life into something which has claimed Singaporeans and PR’s lives during peacetime.
Every single developed country is a better place to live than Singapore, even the better developing countries like Malaysia gives an equal to better experience.
