Singaporean connection

<p>Yeah there has been quite a lot recently. Is it me or is there like significantly more deaths this year?</p>

<p>rister: we've been facebook stalking each other then! :P</p>

<p>hmm being a non-singaporean (or am i really? haha) i don't think i've heard of deaths during ns until today. wah.</p>

<p>I dunno leh. From what I read seems like those guys didn't have any warning signs. Like the obese recruit who walked 35 min for 1.2 km then collapsed suddenly. Hmmm... At least the death rate in the SG army ain't as high as the US army in Iraq (flame me for my invalid comparisons...)</p>

<p>If we go to war, 25% will migrate immediately, 25% will suddenly develop halting disabilities, 25% will deflect and fight for the opposing army (as PAP's foreign talent strategy backfires) and the last 25% will get slaughtered. </p>

<p>There's a survey on the SAF intranet forums--the majority of NSFs' attitude is indeed of doing the bare minimum. Though the selection of surveyees may have been biased.</p>

<p>hi guys! btw, fiona is a nice name</p>

<p>anyone watches euro 08?</p>

<p>Kinda saw the Italy vs Romania match here and there... Buffon did a pretty good safe!</p>

The proletariat (from Latin proles, "offspring") is a term used to identify a lower social class; a member of such a class is proletarian.
