Since the author is using his Singaporean military service as the analogy, Singaporean-Malays need not apply. Their faith supposedly makes them an inherent risk, so they’re likely only eligible for low-level software developer positions, or maybe DevOps since that’s where most of the firefighting is.
- Chan_Yuk_Chi 5y agoI personally served with plenty of Singaporean-Malays. My first Officer Commanding was Malay. The idea that their faith renders them a risk is not a view we hold.
- notadev 5y agoI suppose you are correct in pointing to their faith not being an issue, but their allegiances are still questioned by some. Why do Malays disproportionately make up the bulk of police/SCDF during NS? https://www.quora.com/Why-are-there-no-Muslims-in-some-sectors-of-the-Singapore-Army-and-Navy https://www.quora.com/Why-are-there-no-Muslims-in-some-secto...
