Truth about National Services in Malaysia.

Everybody heard of National Servive(NS) before. But the idea of NS is being so different to every single person. While a lot of ex-trainee wished that they will have another change to join NS with the same group of NS that they were once with, a lot people who never joined NS before were praising God that they never got selected to NS. It's kinda prejudice I would say for those who never know NS but judged NS on the bad side. Most of them would say it's a waste of time, slowing down one's study progress and bla bla bla. Isn't those who got JPA scholars and STPM students were also in the same intake as ex-ns trainee? NS in Malaysia are only 3 months, unlike those real time NS in Singapore, China, Taiwan, etc which lasted for 2 years. Why no one never judged this way: JPA students wasted 6 months waiting for the JPA's intake?

To tell the truth, I was excited when I knew I was selected to NS, but a lot of friends were pitying me back then. Even one of my close friends were laughing and making jokes out of it. I should be the one to pity them for being to prejudice.
