Has the National Service become a child extermination programme?What has become of an idealistic programme which was successfully implemented by US, S'pore and many other countries but had been a constant menace in Malaysia and of which parents are now suffering extreme phobias and paranoias? Parents now would cry and suffers anxieties once they heard their children are selected for the NS programme.
I felt sorry to hear of the news about Mohd Rafi Ameer. My condolence to Jubaidah Ameer and her aunt, Aminah Bibi Babu, and all his family members who are griefed by the loss of Rafi.

whooo! that's so harsh, mave - child extermination programme??
i'm one who is very criticial of NS too but i guess i wouldn't go that far to label it as exterminator programme. we don't know the real story behind all those death but the thing is people do die and the thing is because the trainees died in NS, the death were highlighted and talked about.
but hold your horses before anyone come shooting at me (saying stuff like what if s/he is your child?). yes in a way i do blame NS for the death (partly only), and anyway i feel NS should be done away with enitrely. it was implemented hastily... for what? purpose of integration among the races? but did that happened?
lucia, NS camp is money talk pork barrel. RM500 mils, and the stake is increasing by years. Imagine that.
money printing scheme, more like it for the NS program. you think the milkers care? ameer is just another statistics. too bad, its god's will thats what these milkers will say.
common lucia, young people dont drop dead from flu especially when proper treatment ( as put forward by these milkers) has been extended. by the way, how many has died mysteriously since this NS ( national shit) program was launched? right now, by participating in the NS program, its equivalent to playing russian roulette. god is to determine whether you will come out alive from this NS program?
I'M A MOTHER OF A CURRENT PLKN TRAINEE WITH 1 MORE WEEK TO GO AT KEM SEMBRONG, BATU PAHAT. RAFI'S DEATH NOT ONLY DEALT A BLOW TO HIS FAMILY BUT ALSO TO MYSELF COS IT COULD HAVE BEEN MY SON OR IT COULD HAVE ANYONE SON/DAUGHTER.....MY HEART GOES OUT TO RAFI AND HIS FAMILY. ITS TRUE ENOUGH THAT THIS PROGRAMME HAS BEEN HASTILY BUILT-UP AND DESPERATELY IN NEED OF IMPROVISATION! MY SON EVER TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS ONE INCIDENT WHEN HE WAS FEELING SICK AND HAVING FEVER BUT WAS DENIED OF DOCTOR COS ACCORDING TO THEM ITS "NOT SERIOUS ENOUGH"! AND HE WAS MERELY GIVEN PANADOL WHICH HE LATER THREW AWAY OUT OF FRUSTRATION! I PRAY THAT MY SON WILL COMPLETE HIS PLKN TRAINING SAFELY AND SO ARE THE REST OF THE CURRENT & FUTURE TRAINEES......AMIN!
Let's hope the "doctors" in these camps can properly distinguish between blood vessels and muscles when administering injections, or there will be more amputations of limbs
All it takes to dump the NS programme is for an offspring of a bigwig to be "exterminated" (accidentally, of course) while undergoing training. Unfortunately these bigwigs have ways to prevent their children from been inducted into the NS, just as George Bush had ways of avoiding being drafted to Vietnam
AS A MOTHER OF A PLKN TRAINEE, I STRONGLY APPROVE OF SUCH NS PROGRAMME COS I CAN SEE FOR MYSELF HOW MUCH MY SON HAVE CHANGED FOR THE PAST MONTHS....HE WENT IN BY FORCE AND CURSING ENDLESSLY IN THE START....BUT COME OUT WITH PLENTY OF LESSONS LEARNT, DISCIPLINES AND LOTS OF NEW FRIENDS, TOO...HE USED TO BE A RACIST BUT SINCE JOINING PLKN, HE'S A CHANGED PERSON AND EVEN INTRODUCE ME TO HIS NEW BEST FRIENDS OF MALAY,INDIAN AND CHINESE ETHNIC.....CAN U BELIEVE HOW PLKN CAN DO WONDERS TO A REBEL & RACIST LIKE MY SON?!!! ONLY THING THAT NEED IMPROVING FROM WHAT I SAW ARE SUCH AS HEALTHCARE, F&B AND TRAINERS NEED TO BE EDUCATED ON HOW TO HANDLE SITUATION REGARDING TRAINEE BEHAVIOUR, MENTALITY AND EMOTION...WHICH THEY FAILED MISERABLY!!!!
I agree with ano who commented before me. My pampered son did better when he came back from his NS stint. :-)
I agree that some kids will learn the independent part. But, that is not what NS is for! There are other cheaper and better ways to do that (Need not risking lives as well). Totally irrelevant to use it as a justification.
After 3 months, racist kids no longer racist? Are you serious? This value is much more effective cultivated in school and home.
18 years old kids don't just drop dead like that. Some asses must be fried over this NS joke.
