Should the government impose stiffer penalties on those who skip NS?

Idrus:
Yes! The government should impose it. Currently, the situation is those who skip NS are just being fined for example in the case of painist Melvyn Tan who was fined for evading National Service. I think not fair to others who have to go go through tough military training for 2.5 years. So, the government should make new law on this matter like those who skip NS would undergo training for 3 years plus being fined heavily.

Yes.. In the case Melvyn Tan, the fine to him was only $5000. More people will take this as an example as a way to skip NS as they can afford to pay the fine. Thus government should impose heavy penalties to them..
