posing in army uniform

[Iceheller]

No mixing things, just seeing from big picture. This are thing that ppl think is ok but it where it will cause our downfall. If not why SAF bother to spend money to change uniform when most of us think we will never go into war. It just like ppl mecer expect the haze will never be that bad... I cannot blame u, mr pegasi, as u dun serve NS, so dun see the big pic as u may not have the necessary info.

Do u read yr company code of conduct? I dun and it no brainer, if not Hp with camera would not be ban initially after idiot post themselves on social media. Camera is not allow, so what do I think? Let not touch on the moral conduct part...

I think you are mixing up protecting against leak of confidential info and leak of pictures in uniform.

And yes, I do read our company's code of conduct although I may not remember all of them. In fact, the legal advisor gave a sesson to all staff on code of conduct.

When I go back for reservist, the instruction is that we are not suppose to post pic of ourselves in uniform unless is related to NS. And some has go through approval.

Thanks for clarification. I take it that if there is such instruction from the army officer, there must be such written code of conduct somewhere. There again, I think people are mixing up two things: posing in army uniform, and posing in army uniform wearing Rolex. If there is indeed a code of conduct that forbids posting publicly any picture in army uniform, then there is no arguement. But if there is no such code of conduct or rule, then we are talking morality...

Actually the guy is leaking out information unknowingly, during war or sabotage situation, enemy would know that he is a captain, jungle train, airborne, marksman and etc. The reason for the change in new army uniform is that soldier can quickly remove his/her rank, unit and etc just before they get capture by enemy. So by post all this information,he is already leaking info and compromising himself and maybe even his unit...

Well said. Sometimes kids talk more sense than some adults

Except that Edward Snowden didn't do what he did for Rolex or money so maybe not the best reference used there.

HAHA no lah, what I meant was that the person only took photos of his watches what, not as though he is leaking out classified information

I dun see any wrong in that photo with his SAF uniform. Maybe u r over sensitive. He might have problem maybe after you stir up the whole issue by uploading his photo here.

Can't he take a photo with all the achievement he made to share us?

[pegasi]

There is code of conduct. Guess posting yrself or others in Facebook or social media wearing uniform may beach some rules and especially with the hand in that position where ppl can flame him for trying to showoff his gold watch. So what if he can afford? It is the image! Imagine if PM lee drive a Lamborghini? Anything wrong? Nothing what cause he can afford what. So is that really so?

I have never served the SAF so may I ask if there is a written "code of conduct" that forbids the wearing of expensive items in all occasions when one is in uniform? Or are you talking moral conduct?

[pegasi]

Erm, there is a good reason why the facebook group is a CLOSED group... Pictures aren't supposed to be leaked out anyways... And isn't it wrong for TS to take SS of people's photo without permission in the first place?

Anyways I see nothing wrong with the photo, it is not as though the person is doing an "Edward Snowden" incident of any sort. And I am pretty sure the Rolex is earned through his honest means, so there is no harm sharing what he has achieved.

Peace out.

Intent of the photo is not the main issue.




Proud of achievements is one issue. Posing with such a watch in SAF uniform is an issue. Other members in the public is not so kind.

Question...

Are you a regular or NSMen???

If you are e second one then congrats bro nice watch but frankly speaking IMO e watch don't really goes with SAF uniform...

Wear it with good health...

Cheers

[louie]

becos Mr Lee wears a seiko/casio, sometimes no watch.

[ac_wong75]

Now if that watch was the one they give for NSman who complete their service instead of thw swiss army or hamilton depending on your time that would be very nice....

Anyways I do recall some gulf states like UAE and Oman have limited edition rolex for military service.. I recall the model is a datejust 16013 like the link below...

I don't see any issues as he earn a honest pay. The person did not compromise sensitive info about our national security and definitely no wrong in taking with uniform. If wearing a expensive watch is a crime, a lot of us will surely loose our jobs. Because most of us wear much more expensive watch then our bosses. How about our colleagues, no end to their gossip on how we can afford such things. How about cars also?
