recently an acquaintance of mine received official punishment for irresponsible blogging. its something thats not taken lightly in this country, given the fact that the internet is a very fragile realm where either growth and love is nurtured, or hate and spite are spawned.
as the saying goes, "君子一言既出，驷马难追". (the words of the gentleman when spoken, is difficult to recall, like a fine steed". its not as if we're totally forbidden to talk about the army. i mean, the army does impart an average (self-motivated) soldier responsibility, many communication, as well as management skills. of course that comes with plenty of manual labor, deadlines and unfortunately for some, extra duties.
but as in the interest for the country and the armed forces, we are bound by the official secrets act to safeguard any classified information that we would definitely come across in the course of work, especially someone from the service vocations like me. since by common sense, we do more paperwork than combatants.
so, while we want to share our experiences as well as our opinions regarding the armed forces, the onus would definitely be on the servicemen to not leak out stuff that we shouldnt tell. just like how anyone with common sense would not blog about his/her daily private self-gratification rituals. and of course, as shown in various previous incidents of disciplinary lapses, the armed forces has a system flow for which servicemen can air their grievances, as well as seek counselling guidances should they have any personal conflicts with the organisation and its members. (this should have been published in either in a newspaper report, or a forum response towards a previous incident of disciplinary lapse involving a high-profile serviceman)
moral of the story: whatever you do or say, be prepared to eat it back. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~*~*~*~*~*~~~~~~~~~~~~
well i also have to thank meibao for buying me the puma belt sometime ago at rafflescity puma boutique, which i truly adore. lol been long since i got a gift from her ba =x
anw talk about irresponsible blogging, i dont get why people find so much gratification in giving nonproductive comments on tagboards. if typing words into cyberspace lets you feel avenged over some conflict in real life, i wish you all the best!
