Young men in Singapore, including you, will have to do National Serivce. Why do you think National Service is compulsory in Singapore and why is it important? In the poem, the speaker expresses his love for his country, England. Do you find this same spirit of passion and patriotism Singaporeans have for our country? Why? Do you have this same spirit of patriotism for Singapore? Why?
National service is compulsary in Singapore as it helps in promoting national loyalty and as well as enough manpower to defend the nation in times of need. National service is an important proccess every man has to go through. It is an identity, a symbol and a life. It signifies the growth of a youth to a patrotic citizen of the nation and it also is the main force in defending Singapore.
"All citizens love their country. " Someone told me that when I was a kid. Now recalling this sentence, I realise that it is not true. Yes majority of the citizens love their coountry, but not all. Passionate for the nation only lies within those who really been through the hard times with Singapore before it has been developed into today's successful nation. The youths like us are not as patrotic as the older generations. Perhaps this is why Singapore has made national service compulsary.
