/kloc-Do you need to do military service to become a Singaporean at the age of 0/7?

According to Singapore's Military Service Law, all Singapore citizens or second-generation permanent residents who have reached the age of 65,438+06 are required to apply for national military service registration, and join the army when they have reached the age of 65,438+08.

However, some people do not need to perform military service, for example, they become the first-generation immigrant applicants under the "permanent resident plan for professionals, technicians and skilled workers" or "permanent resident plan for investors", and the disabled and homosexuals recognized by medical institutions do not need to perform military service.

Military service is a civic duty of Singapore citizens. This system forces all male citizens aged 18 and second-generation permanent residents of Singapore to serve the country. Citizens who pass the medical examination will become full-time active servicemen and be assigned to the Singapore Armed Forces, Singapore Police Force or the subordinate units of Singapore Civil Defence Force for a period of 24 months. After the expiration of two years' service, retired soldiers will be incorporated into combat readiness units and become "combat readiness soldiers". Soldiers in combat readiness must return to camp for training once a year to ensure that they pass the physical examination every year for a period of 10 years.
