Outside of Singapore, who gives a shit if you say "I did NS"? Don't expect foreigners to be proud of us and say wow! Singaporean men did NS wor! Wow! Wow! Wow!
So I wonder why he kept repeating that he did NS?
very simple.
for male only.
Due to overflow of foreigners/PRs, he needs to say he did NS so that the whole world knows that he belongs to the 1st class resident or citizen
1st class resident - citizen served NS
2nd class resident - citizen never serve NS
3rd class resident - PR served NS
4th class resident - PR never serve NS
5th class resident - non-PR or foreigner
