FIGHTING TO DIE OR DYING TO FIGHT?


The Rhetoric

“I have three sons. I’m prepared to send my children, all sons, to fight for Singapore, to die if necessary.”

The Reality

“For decades, young Singaporeans have been venturing overseas for further studies. But unlike previous generatons, more and more young Singaporeans these days are opting to stay abroad.”
– Straits Times, Apr 15, 2002
