    @DL2R hmmm at least these so called wayang hendon girls are better than in u in terms of education, physical fitness, morals and values. Bear in mind, kopasus is voluntary, we have national service for 2-2.5 years, if we get to go commando means we made the cut for basic entry requirements. Special Forces like the army SOF is a smaller unit within commandos itself. If u wanna compare, compare kopasus with SOF. Don't compare 18-20 year old boys who just ended their education and went on to an elite unit with basic knowledge of special training and unconventional warfare. They only serve for 2.5 years max,after that they are called reservists. They only go for revision training for 2 weeks in 10 cycles. Your kopasus service is up to the soldiers themselves if they wanna retire or not. SOF is made out of regulars who chose the army as their career

    @@ryangoh420 Before going to NS, there should be a standard medical check, you may voice your opinion there (not sure if that helps). How it works around 2007 (things may or may not have changed) --> Some people will get a letter ("invitation") from Army to go for an "interview" at a certain camp, "standard" checks will be done there like fitness, etc. At that camp, you can let the instructors know you are keen to join and if you clear everything (fitness/medical/IQ/etc), you will get another letter sometime later to inform you where you will be posted (to start your BMT). You will be allowed to go through a few months of military before signing on (to make sure you know what you sign up for), it will be told to you near the start so don't have to rush to sign on. A time frame will be given before the "final" decision to sign on (you can still sign after that, just don't get extra cash bonus, but also less contract restricted, find out more when you are serving). Even if you don't get in as a NSF (National Service Full time) but decided to sign on, you can still inform your superior and get the chance to go for Commando selection course. If and when you get to go to any camps or "Army buildings", look out for those red berets, go up to them, be polite and ask them for more information (I'm sure they will be happy to chat if time permits).

Like education, we need A levels certificate or Poly diploma just to enter. Once finish basic training and earn the beret, u can continue study for degree and be an officer. But if u are talking about SOF, which is a Special Forces unit within commandos, yes muslims can't join due to political reasons. Yeah i'm sad about that too. But being in commandos itself is an honour as they take only an extremely small percentage of the entire year of consripts since Commandos is an elite airborne infantry unit..
