Phony Tan's concept of Meritocracy - Giving his son a Get out of NS Card....

Phony Tan remains frustrated by peasants' anger that two of his precious sons, in particular, Patrick Tan was given rare deferments and a cushy military scientist role to evade National Serfship hardships.

Phony and Patrick think that peasants have no right to question why Princelings are treated as White Horses and accorded special treatment. To add salt to injury, Patrick Tan apparently had problems coping with the MOCC course (the lax physical training part) and only an office environment will suit him, preferably an vocation that will further his career. No problems for lackeys smelling a promotion and a silly series of wayang was performed to parachute Patrick Tan to safety. Patrick Tan would have gotten away if not the embarrassing leaks via Internet.

The peasants are naturally angry as evading National Serfship is a sensitive topic. Due to the silly nature of National Serfship, the regime imposed several draconian laws to punish peasant evaders. In fact, numerous peasants ran afoul of the ridiculous conscription law even after renouncing peasantpore citizenship. Evil Mindef has weird laws that force peasants who renounce their citizenship to serve their NS.

Furthermore, those who are made to serve as serfs do not have a good deal, they are forced to buy their own insurance and usually ended up as cheap conscripted peasant soldiers to defend the regime's interests and foreigners. In addition, a few peasants must die annually during silly amateurish trainings conducted by lowly educated military instructors.

In one tragic episode, a poor peasant soldier was killed by elite special forces instructors aka Hendon Dunkers during a mock Prison-of-War training. The parents of the deceased peasant soldier received an insincere statement of regret and scant compensation from evil Mafia Mindef. The ex-Commanding Officer (Noel Tan) of the Hendon Dunkers claimed/pretended he knew nothing about the doings of his low end instructors despite his Colonel rank and fat cat pay. He was even promoted to ensure the harsh trainings are not stopped. Noel Tan will certainly pay more attention if his nephew was somehow involved in the training.

This is proof that rather than spend time praying to Jewish deities on Sunday, Noel Tan ought to pay more attention to his drunk instructors. Sadly the High Court agreed with evil Mindef that trainings must be realistic and handed out light sentences to the Hendon Dunkers. In this episode, the regime proved that peasants' lives are cheap with respect to the regime's survivial. Since National Serfship started, 99.8% of the training accidents casualties involved humble peasants.

Therefore it is small wonder peasants howl with disapproval when Phony Tan used his Defence Minister influence to secure easy cushy Get-Out-of-Jail cards for his sons to evade National Serfship. In Peasantpore, it appears that there is an additional set of laws that accord special privileges to the well connected and wealthy.

I would take his word for it that he did not use his influence. There are enough uniformed por lam pars to ensure that the likes of Patrick are taken care of. I think the issue the peasants are upset with his the Tan family's arrogant response to the couple of simple questions which were asked regarding their service.

But then, maybe we should not be surprised by the trait:

Phony Tan was not lying when he claimed no undue influence was applied on Mafia Mindef.

However knowing how corrupt Asiatic societies operate, it will be a miracle if no clever lackey took this as an career boosting move to parachute Patrick Tan to safety. With Patrick Tan glad that his torture is over, what else can Phony Tan say? Kill the lackey and risk a scandal?

There is another example. Tarman was once dragged to the courts when he revealed some economic figures which jealous foes applied the Official Secrets Act on him. Tarman was rescued and given a trival fine and his record is still clean. Many years later, Tarman repaid the favour by repealing the Estate Duty so that Gecko Kwa's descendants are spared the trouble of declaring her opulent wealth (dodgy investments during Baba Emperor's reign).

With Patrick Tan in joy that his MOCC/NS torture is over, what else can indulgent parent Phony Tan say? Kill the lackey and risk a scandal?

Yes, you think the decision came from the top? Some middle rank officer thought if he didnt do it and give Patrick a Hell vocation, he would get fired.

When ExMM said that Singaporeans are daft, do not be angry. He is correct. Singaporeans are indeed daft. On the topic of Pat, Poor Pat, Poor Pat, Poor Dad. If I am not mistaken, Patrick said something to the effect that he will come clean and explain his NShip to one of our bloggers after the PE. You see, Promises, promises, yes, empty promises. Dad has become the President and Spreans will surely forget the issue ... as usual. R Singaporeans not daft?
