On a more serious note, Singapore would probably not be a viable nation without her reservists... like with the Israelis, all potential foes are deterred by the size of a fully mobilized SAF and how quickly it can be mobilized. The SAF has never been fully mobilized but if it did, there will be 300,000 ground troops, which would be twice the size of the British or Australian Army! There will not be enough space to accommodate all the soldiers, tanks and combat vehicles on the route from the causeway to Marina Bay.

Then we go for 'short run' 7km and SOC (Standard Obstacle Course) in darkness. Very very interesting experience. Not just physical but a lot of mental, psychological ... training. You can quit at any time if you can't take it. First day of military exercise: No one is allowed to sleep. This is normal, to train soldiers for war. 2nd day usually planning is 4 hours sleep, if the military exercise allows you down time. Normal to get scolded ('F') to train you to take the psychological stress of war. Many sleepless nights, many times in the heavy rain, thunderstorm ... because war training is in all kinds of weather. SAF is very serious biz. I don't think Korea, Taiwan or any other country (except Israel) is as prepared for war as Singapore.
