There is no place for RPs in SAFPU !!!!! The place is crawling with MPs !!!!! Why would SAFPU need RPs ??????!!!!!RPs-wannabes just need to go SAFPU SOP for a 2 weeks course. Then they will be posted out to various camps ie tengah air base, tekong.Basically what u r doing is............ Guard Duty. At night you will be the only ones around.... walking around the camp in the wee hours... moon-bathing or in Tekong case, night-fishing..... etcSome place they work as 24hrs duty, 24hrs off, follow by office hours, follow by standby 24hrs. Weekend and holidays if kena your shift for duty then u LPPL.Different camps different system. But be prepared to burn your holidays and weekends.

if u get FDS course for RP.. then forget about the 2 weeks course... i just came out from TAB FDS... haha.. was a 3months course of tekan but now all of my friends posted here and there.. well, RPs like me get combet pay...
mobray camp quite awhile don't have RP course already

Military Police (MP) had moved from the old camp (Ulu Pandan Camp) to the new Mowbray Camp at "Mobray Road" near the Kranji Detention Barracks, Police Dog Unit and the new Kranji Camp. Pls do note that Mowbray Camp is not Kranji Camp !!There are 7 companies in SAFPU :-APC :- Deals in Guard-of-Honour Parade, Istana Guards, Traffic Platoon, and the famous SPDS (Slient Precision Drill Squad). ZPC :- Conduct Operation eg Camp Inspection, Escorts of Detainees and Paperworks of the detainees to Detention Barracks.SB :- Investigate classified cases and CP. (Close Protection)SIB :- InvestigatorsSOP :- Train future MPs, and RPs. Conduct Basic SPDS CoursesHQ :- HQ lah...DB :- Detention Barracks. in other words, prison guards lor...And for RPs, their powers are not that great as MP possess.. Its a 2 week very lobo courses. Most probably you will learn the basic of "how to handcuff properly"and "the Military Law Chapter 295", "turnout and discipline" etc.Very lobo one lah.... then u will be posted out to other camps.. basically security like check for pass of visitors going into your camp eg. No SOC required, no chiong hill chiong sea.If unlucky during your time got war, Military Police will be the biggest f***. Even the SPF will come under MP. The powers of MP wil be very great in war times.Military Police is the only service vocation which are paid combat pay.

Do you know any good medical fiction?
I recently read a book called "The Laws of Invisible Things" about a doctor investigating a mysterious disease. It was a really cool mystery novel and very realisitc. It was written by a doctor.So I'm wondering if you can recommend other good books in the genre of medical fiction. Something that deals with viruses, infections, etc. I don't mean a huge apocalyptic outbreak and not going over into science fiction either. Has Michael Crichton written something like this maybe? "Andromeda Strain" was cool, but I'm looking for more everyday medical practice, dealing with patients, etc. Nothing supernatural, as close to reality as possible.

Look up about anything from Michael Cook or Crichton. Coma was great. Try a used book store-they could probably give you some great input as well

Robin Cook and Michael Palmer both write medical fiction

the reason why i would at anytime choose utas is that i'm actually interested in doing rural medicine, which utas is tops in. (: and utas has a smaller med population. which means more personal attention. and very honestly, i like tas more than nsw. the quiet city. the very friendly people. i like the town.
