WHY CONSCRIPTION, SINGAPORE? THE SOCIAL AND GEOSTRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONSAshwin Samales
By Daniel J Kwok
Conscription is a centuries-old manpower procurement policy that continues to be used by many countries today; however, in the last few decades, the trend is for developed countries to transition toward all-volunteer forces. Reasons to implement conscription include the presence of a clear military threat and authoritarian intentions, among others, but many nations have since reduced or abolished conscription as they shift toward stable, democratic late- modern prosperity. Singapore adopted conscription shortly after gaining independence in 1965, yet amid similar conditions in the past half-century and facing the same challenges to its model and ideal of conscription, has not made the transition to an all-volunteer force.
This thesis analyzes the reasons for Singapore’s continued use of conscription in a world where other developed countries have transitioned toward all-volunteer forces. This insight could provide alternative options for countries seeking to maintain conscription, as well as reframe the civil-military discourse about conscription. Also, Singapore stands out as an anomaly in the globally occurring transitions to all-volunteer forces, thus explaining the Singapore case would further an understanding of why countries end, or retain, conscription.
Pastor Audrey's sermon series week 3 study guide. The book of James turned on its head! Pastor Audrey teaches us how this oft dismissed book that many say contradict some of the principles of the Gospel as laid out by Paul in particular. But does it really? Pastor Audrey teaches us how the book of James really is about leadership. We who are either side of that all important chain of command know that leadership takes strength and determination. Above all, doing the right thing: always. That's how she teaches through the book of James, that it is about leadership and it is about doing the right thing. This week the tongue is front and center, and we can all agree what terrible damage the tongue can do, and on the other hand, what amazing inspiring and encouraging things it can do. We all need these reminders!
