INTRODUCTION

Hi everyone, thanks for visiting my blog. First an introduction of myself. I am actually being exempted from *(1) Full Time National Service, *(2) Operationally Ready National Service and        *(3) Duty to obtain an Exit Permit under Section 29 of the Enlistment Act (Cap.93) The reason why is that I have this severe form of Thalassemia (known as Thalassemia Major), the person will require a lifetime monthly blood transfusions. This is a painful and traumatic treatment regime that imposes an enormous financial and emotional strain on the patient, and also on his or her family.

My purpose of creating this blog is to want to know my friends, whether or not you are Pes F or A. Anything at all you wish to ask me, you can go ahead and do so like for example: Does getting Pes f affect you future chance of getting a career things like that. So be sure to check back, as I will be posting more updates..
