There is no NS conscription in Malaysia  except for a 3 months physical training. 
I think currently scraped too.
Maybe it is too expensive for them to pay, since population is about 34 million. 
And their regular soldier's salary is low in international standard. About 2k MYR monthly. 
So cannot attract the Chinese Malaysian to make it as their career.

When you serve to protect the country it is not about dollars and cents it is about a privilege which our MIW MP say one. It is a privilege to serve. Jiuhu Chinese all talk monies got monies then do so serve country also same. If we apply those Jiuhu Chinese thinking to Spore how? Spore disappear liao lor. I serve 2.5 years and lost so much earn monies compared to a Jiuhu Chinese same as my age who no need to serve. Also Jiuhu Chinese elders got a popular saying 好男不当兵 their mindset is die other races sons can but ownself sons cannot die. This thinking lead to being bullied by brown color skin majority ppl lor. In a way Jiuhu Chinese deserve the sub-par treatment as they themselves selfish cannot die. If cannot die then give more monies lor so simple then we hear the Jiuhu Chinese kpkb about being got sub-par treatment.
