- Status is not correct "ftms who have not transitioned are not recognised as men during NS. also, if you come out as gay during NS by declaring 302, you will undergo some separate training than non-302 soldiers that is confidential to the public. so the status should be vague instead of completely legal"
- Note field is incorrect "Based on Singaporean law, serving openly in the military is legal."
