Dear A.S.S,
Saw this on my news feed today, some guy was teaching a NSF how to sneak an expended round out of the firing range by hiding it in the rifle’s battery compartment

Female Malay Officer LTA Nur Atiqah Trains Officer Cadets
LTA Nur Atiqah currently serves as an Instructor in the Officer Cadet School (OCS) in SAFTI MI.
Previously, she was a Platoon Commander in 9 SIR, an Infantry Battalion.
“Being in the SAF has helped me in my character-development as it is a very people-oriented career. Having to manage and work with people has helped develop me to be a better team player and to manage expectations. Being in the force has taught me how to manage my time better, adapt and react to situations on the ground”.

Why Sikhs Can Keep Beards But Muslims Cannot in SAF?
Meet 3SG Jagrnjeet Singh, a regular Infantry specialist who just graduated from the 15/13 Specialist Cadet Course. As a junior commander, he is looking forward to leading his men and giving them a positive time in the SAF. He elaborated, “I am in this not for the money but for my passion. I want to give a different experience to my men and show them that there is much more to National Service than the two years. Having been a trooper before in 4 SIR, I understand how troopers feel and want to make a positive impact on their time in NS”. Very inspiring words, 3SG Singh! — with Jagrnjeet Singh Sidhu. During my 4th ICT, I have a corporal posted into my unit. He’s a Muslim with facial hair just like our Sikh friend in this picture. Not trying to stir any racial/religion issue here. But upon in pro, he was asked to rid of his facial hair without any second chances.
In Islam, Muslim men are encouraged to keep beards. But how is it that our dear Sikh brothers are allowed to keep facial hairs but our Muslim brothers are not allowed. This shows that the SAF is cultivating double standards.
The organization is being biased towards Muslim practising their rights in the SAF. As a Muslim, I am upset that after 40years of developing Asia’s best army, this MAJOR issue has yet to be ironed out.
Also, the serviceman has a letter from MUIS to allow him to wear track pants instead of the standard issue PT shorts. Sadly, he was not allowed to perform his IPPT due to his attire. Reasons were compromise of safety/possible heat injuries etc. We all know that it can be done but they just want to suppress our rights.
Harap maaf kerana mengguna bahasa english. Serviceman tersebut adalah FCruz. Saya adalah CSM beliau.

EDITOR’S NOTE
Followers of the Sikh religion are allowed to keep beard, and wear a turban while still donning military uniform. They do not need special permission in the SAF.
MINDEF explained the allowance for Sikhs was passed down from British colonial times.
What is your view on this beard issue and what do you think is the best way to resolve this matter?

Askar Malaysia Makan Haiwan Haram Ketika Latihan Darurat di Hutan
Credit: Facebook Listen Listen Original Sebuah laman Facebook Listen Listen Original pada 31 Mei lepas mempersoalkan beberapa keping gambar yang memaparkan beberapa anggota tentera yang dipercayai dari negara Malaysia menikmati pelbagai juadah makanan di dalam hutan.
Menurut Facebook berkenaan, anggota tentera berkenaan mungkin dari Malaysia berdasarkan pakaian seragam mereka dan dilihat menjalani latihan memakan benda ‘haram’ sebagai latihan ketika darurat.
Gambar itu dikatakan dipaparkan pada mulanya di laman web maahadsas.edu.my mengatakan bahawa para anggota itu diberi latihan kelangsungan hidup atau bagaimana cara untuk menangkap, memasak serta memakan.
Di status Facebook berkenaan turut dipaparkan persoalan apakah tujuan sebenar latihan sebegitu diadakan dan ia dirujuk pula kepada kemungkinan latihan seorang ibu yang terdesak masalah kewangan untuk menjadi pelacur.
Selepas puas memberikan soalan berbaur provokasi baru laman Facebook itu memohon pencerahan daripada Jawatankuasa Fatwa Kebangsaan dalam isu gambar anggota tentera memakan haiwan yang pelik-pelik yang didakwa haram itu.

EDITOR’S NOTE
Isu-isu sebegini juga ada tempiasnya di Singapura dan ianya juga menimbulkan tanda tanya tentang askar-askar kita yang beragama Islam: apakah mereka boleh memakan haiwan-haiwan yang boleh dikategorikan sebagai haram atau binatang liar ketika LATIHAN DARURAT?
Mungkin ada baiknya kita renungkan bersama. Antara agama dan juga negara ketika latihan darurat seperti ini.
Semoga kita akan mendapatkan penjelasan daripada pihak yang lebih ahli supaya masyarakat umum tidak membuat simpulan sendiri yang tidak berasas dan kurang bernas.
Selama ini, isu-isu sensitif seperti ini tidak dibicarakan secara terbuka. Inilah masanya.

Orang Malaysia bengang tentera SG berlatih di Brunei
Negara Singapura tiada hutan belantara, jika tiada hutan belantara maka tidak perlu sangat lah melatih tentera nya didalam hutan. Tambahan apa yang patut dibuat ada lah melatih tentera nya mempertahan kota Singa itu pada urban warfare sahaja kerana mempertahan kan kota Singapura dari serangan musuh.
Tetapi semua nya itu jika mereka mahu terhad kan kepada mempertahan kan diri.
Bagaimana pula jika ada niat lebih dari itu? Jika mereka mahu masuk kedalam hutan dan berperang gerila dalam hutan, hutan mana pula sasaran mereka?
Kebetulan negara berhutan terletak tidak jauh dari pulau Singapura, hanya beberapa kilometer sahaja dari pulau Singa itu.Tapi apa pun kita berperasangka baik.
Singapura menghantar tentera nya berlatih mengenali hutan dan berperang didalam nya dengan menguna kan kemudahan hutan negara Brunei Darussalam.
Selain mengikat mata wang (pegged) bersama Negara Brunei , Singapura juga dibenarkan berlatih perang dalam hutan dinegara Brunei Darussalam.
Bukan sahaja tentera Singapura dilatih cara survival didalam hutan malah juga taktikal dan tatacara perang secara total.
‘Singapore and Brunei share a strong and long-standing defence relationship. In addition to regular training which SAF troops conduct in Brunei, both defence establishments conduct a wide range of bilateral exercises and professional exchanges which have enhanced the professionalism and strengthened the ties between the two armed forces.’
Mungkin menyedari bukan sahaja pertahanan yang kuat mesti ada pada kota kecil ini, maka mereka go one step further dengan memperolehi kemahiran berperang dalam hutan. Dan kebetulan keakraban dengan negara Brunei sudah terjalin maka peluang menggunakan hutan nya sebagai kawasan latihan tentera perlu diambil.
Kerana kurang kemahiran dalam hutan maka latihan diada kan secara serious, malah sehingga beberapa kali tentera nya hilang dan sesat didalam hutan Brunei itu.
Latihan boleh di kata kan serious dan penuh kesungguhan sehingga melibat kan nyawa tentera nya.
“Lance Corporal (LCpl) Muhammad Fahrurrazi Salim was the coxswain in a convoy of four boats used to support the water crossing segment of the jungle training exercise at Sungai Batu Apoi. In a statement released on their website, Singapore’s Defence Ministry said the 20-year-old was last seen wearing a life jacket on his boat at 7.55am Sunday morning. However at 8am, his boat was noticed not to have followed the convoy”
Bagi negara kita Malaysia , kita hanya mahu berfikir jika hanya mahu mempertahan kan negara sendiri, Singapura sudah pun kuat dan mantap kerana kapal perang Amerika yang berada di sekitar Laut China Selatan juga ada dan akan segera berada di sisi Singapura apabbila sahaja mereka di perlukan.
Tetapi berperang dalam hutan?
Itu harus kita waspada kerana Singapura tidak ada hutan yang besar, budak pengakap pun boleh survive dalam hutan mereka, tapi dengan kesungguhan mereka menghantar tentera nya di Brunei untuk berlatih perang, maka Malaysia harus berjaga jaga dengan tindakan “behind enemy line” dari pihak jiran kita.
Banyak fakta nyata dan mudah di perolehi berkenaan tindak tanduk ketenteraan Singapura yang ada di alam maya.
Singapore also maintains a training establishment in Brunei, known as the Jalan Aman Camp and operates support helicopters mainly to transport the soldiers to Lakiun Camp in Temburong for Jungle Training. The other Singapore military establishment in Brunei is the Lakiun Camp in Temburong. This provides jungle training for the Singapore Armed Forces in the interior of Temburong.
Kerja kita tidak lebih selain memerhatikan sahaja.
