If my army rank is Captain, does that mean u will call me Sir when I am in civilian? If not, why? Double standards? Bootlicking selectively? Do u call Cow Boon Wan doctor? Do u call Ass Loong BG?
You sound a bit confused. Rank is rank. Title is is title. Lee Hsien Loong is no more Brigadier-General, he's been discharged. Anyway, you don't have to call him Sir unless you're in service with a rank below him. Doctorate is always Doctor, it's an academic title. By the way, Khaw Boon Wan is not a doctor (whether philosophical or medical).
