Singapore—At the Ministry of Defence’s (MINDEF) Committee of Supply debate in Parliament on Monday (March 1), Workers’ Party Member of Parliament Gerald Giam (Aljunied GRC) called for fair compensation for soldiers injured during service.
“Singapore’s defence strategy is dependent largely on the contributions of our National Servicemen. It is important that, should our soldiers suffer injuries in the course of their service to the nation, they will be fairly compensated. This will give them the assurance to give their best during training and operations,” Mr Giam said.
He then proceeded to ask whether the current $150,000 Group Term Life and Group Personal Accident insurance cover operationally-ready National Servicemen.
