This is the earliest RUclips video that I've watched, as far as I can remember. Almost a decade passed I had the sudden urge to watch it again, so searched "Singaporean army troll song" and this came out...the nostalgia, aiyo aiyo ai aiyo ah
Used to listen to this since I was in primary school. Now, I am in the 02/24 BMT batch of mono 3sir support. As I write this comment, it is the day of my route march. What a journey it has been. I am curious what awaits me.
Such a great song! In our country Malaysia we also have a national service program called "Khidmat Negara". It's a three months programme but I didn't get selected, I was damn admire while my friends who went there and share their experiences.
You guys have this thing called Wataniah so u can join and train during weekends. That's why your Khidmat Negara is abolished, due to redundancy. Anyone interested can join PELAPES/Wataniah. Idk the details coz im nt from Malaysia.
2:57 I'm still a pre-enlistee, but I still cried at this scene. I could imagine myself sitting in the mud, and if I were to read this letter from my parents I'll cry
i still remember when i going to enlist to NS i watched this video and i felt sad.. But now i ORDed for 1 year alr. To be honest, I love bmt but i hate my unit. They abuse their power too much.. Those enlisting NS stay strong. The sun will shine at you again..
It is not abt abusing power or playing rank. The whole tekan culture is to put you under pressure and emotional stress to prep u in case of war. When u kena captured by enemy, they wont be nice.
Hopefully 100 years from now, new recruits will be still be watching this video. Even if NS is a waste of time, we gotta admit that it makes us better and we get to meet a ton of awesome people that will stick with us throughout life. 1 more year to ORD can’t wait! Hormat saf
This song brings back memories because my company played this song during one lecture ( I think it was our introduction) and the best part is that im from ULYSSES!!!! " Ah boy stay strong" was the phrase that kept me going through the hardest and darkest days and nights. Ulysses Platoon 4 Section 3, Highest floor, We Wont Fall!! 5 stories high, limits we defy !
You know, this was one of the first youtube videos i actually watched, this is very nostaligic (even though i didn't understand this at the time, i was 5)
Wah.. I'm only 12 and yet i'm scared to go NS, hopefully in the future not too tough lah. I already scared. Haiyah. UPDATE : 10th Sep 2023 I’m already in NS & I can’t wait to ORD. BMT was a piece of cake because I ended up being PES C9. Thanks for checking up on me guys 😂
+NoodlesPoodle I know i'm still small (Not physically) but 8 years is a very short amount of time. I need to stop being lazy and go to the gym. I'm good in weights and everything but I cannot jog more then 1.6 km as i'm not that fit.
The 2 years I spent in NS is the best years in my life, the only time I could eat 3 proper meals a day, the only time someone spoke and listened to me, the only time I felt belonged and proud. Thank you NS Wish I could redo NS again Now after my ORD my life is in a total mess again :'(
are you serious? are you really that poor that you can't even afford the life outside army. and are you really such an outcast that you can't even find any true friend outside? wow. you're messed up...
+looneytuneeeeeeee123 wtf is wrong with you?Seriously....There's is nothing wrong if you're poor..some people could not get friends...either bullied or too shy to talk..
umad bro? that was like my reaction to him. wtf is wrong with this guy. ppl are crying and dying to get out of there. and he choose to be in NS?he's totally seeing things in different perspective.
I missed NS! It's the place where you get to see the very rich,the very poor,sabo Kings,blur King,chao keng, kek kiang, howlian, and many more. It's also where I found very good friends,because you shower together, eat together and shit together. Know the person inside out. Go happy hours,fight with each other etc; If I could turn back the clock.........
I was a Malaysian and i want to serve the army in my future but i wear glasses and have high astigmatism. Hope the army will accept people like me in the future.
Yeah all Singaporean must go to army in 18 years old for 2 year without your Parent accept for girl but they can also go.If you don't go to army you go jail.

10 yrs already, but I remember watching it when it was only 4 yrs or less
Even in uniform group the most common words we hear are SEMULA, WALK SOME MORE, and FASTER!!!! Sounds like NS

Be glad you don't have to hear the other BMT favorite phrase, "You all don't want to book out, riiiight?"
Haha rlly?
Dylan Chew I'm a girl kenna Idk why I still go for NPCC
So true i ncc everytime only here that
Proud of all the boys who served! Thank you for your service!! ❤️🌈🇸🇬🙏🏻

10 years later and this still is fire

Miss the good times in ulysses.04/12 thanks for this awesome song.
So funny! Also very inspiring what you wrote above! Moving indeed.
first the song is sad but the ending is happy
When you go BMT your mindset must always be "Have Fun, Endure, I CAN DO IT and Stay Strong"
Amazing song dude
:)
You know, this was one of the first youtube videos i actually watched, this is very nostaligic (even though i didn't understand this at the time, i was 5)
Same sia
During my time we served 2 years plus 6 months, nowadays NS is so relax.
Wah.. I'm only 12 and yet i'm scared to go NS, hopefully in the future not too tough lah. I already scared. Haiyah.
UPDATE : 10th Sep 2023
I’m already in NS & I can’t wait to ORD. BMT was a piece of cake because I ended up being PES C9. Thanks for checking up on me guys 😂
Hello. I hope this would cheer you up but Ns would be 'fun' and you do not need to be scared.
+Jc Tube But first part of NS will be hard right? Like Basic Military Training (BMT)?
Joe Miyori It will because you are not used to it, and that's why you need to adapt, but after a while, you will get used to it.

meanwhile in police basic training... chalet~
Very nice song! Keep up the good work!

Ah Boys To Men recruit's anthem is more popular
But this song is more emotional and relatable
i am so gonna sing this song in the tunnel next week for my field camp XD
I'm glad I'm malaysian so I won't do this thing but to those in the army keep fighting!!
I used to watch this when i was 5 good times
Respect. More emotionally charged that the whole ah boys to men song
Fun fact:ALL Singapore men over age 18 have to go for army

On the 30th October
Go BMTC be soldier
Waving goodbye to my girl
Now it’s time for me to serve
IC changed from pink to green
No. 4 replaced my jeans
No Leticia to keep things clean,
Ownself must do everything ya
Aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo
One guy late whole lot knock it down,
Anything also push the ground,
In a file if you move around
jumping jacks unlimited counts
Chiong sua till I want to keng
Sunburn till I chao da skin
Half-full bottle drink and drink
Drink till whole day go latrine ya
Aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo
Up the low rope over the wall
Apex ladder down I fall
Pick myself up and chiong somemore
SOC just shag my balls
Every night OTOT
Still couldn’t pass IPPT
Stay back in camp to RT
Weekend kena burnt like free ya
Aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo
During field camp build basha
Build too slow tio semula
Sergeants became Godzilla
Kena tekan in the mud
Dig and dig with ET blade
Dig a lobang called shellscrape
Dig till my arms nearly break
Dig till my buddy hyperventilate ya
Aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo
Sergeant gave me an envelope
Inside it there was a note
Mama said, “Ah Boy, stay strong!”
Daddy said, “Ah Boy, fight on!”
In the middle of the night
Feeling homesick want to cry
How I wish my boots were dry
Guarding my “wife” with my life ya
Aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo aiyo, aiyo, ai aiyo
In the blink of an eye
So many weeks have gone by
Marching with friends by my side
Couldn’t bear to say goodbye
Woohoo…hooooooooooooooooo
Eh ya oh ah infantry ah
We are the men from Ulysses
You can list the ones which you don't understand :)
***** Ching sua = charging ahead
Keng = trying to avoid unpleasant tasks by pretending to be weak/ill
So as a whole it means that in army I got to be on my toes and do so many hard missions till I feel like feinting illness

2:24 Poor u. I legit hate that word. Like, everytime they wan train us foot drill, they always semula semula semula. Then we have to run back to our original position cos like 5 seconds only mah. Then foot drill already super tiring, then they make us run, make our legs break even more.
Just curious what happens if you cant run or do activities anymore and must rest, they let you or what
I ddint know this many years ago but I watched it again with a know morning of history and military knowing I understand I would sing thos song at school cuz yes and I made my own 1975 ver but it's not on YT
