Did the earliest inhabitants of Singapore, who came from different lands but settled here to build this great country, have to do NS?
Of course not, because the circumstances were different.
Does that make their contributions any less significant? By that same logic, doing NS is not the only way one can contribute to the country.
The policies of the Government are well thought out and will continue to attract foreigners to this beautiful country.
