Joel's Deferment

2005-03-22T21:24:00.000-08:00

Hi...

Joel, I'm in the process of preparing the letter... actually it has already been written, i'm waiting for the leadership to edit and print it out in a nice and professional letter... SO got to wait a little while more...
As for the flight details... i just received the quotations from the various airlines... so i'm still deciding which airline to take... But to confirm the airline, i need all the registration forms and passport copies (not expired) to be submitted to me.. and some of u didn't sign in some of the forms... i'll get to each of u very soon!!!
As for the invitation letter, i've asked the other guy i/c in pattaya... but right now he's in US.. so he can't write it.. he said the earliest he can give us is mid april... so right, i think we shld submit our local letter to MINDEF 1st... then if they insists on the invitation letter, then i'll call that guy again! ok?? :)

yup... :)

With regards to the deferment

2005-03-22T18:20:00.000-08:00

Chai Ling, i need to defer because i am being called up for reservists training (most unfortunately), and worst still, it coincided with the mission trip. Because of this, i need to have permission b4 i go. For those people who did not receive any callup, they will be free to go =O ... hope u understand now =)

Hmm, Calyn, if you are ready with the letter thing for my deferment, can you let me know... a million thanks!! And also, i don't think we have made any flight arrangements, eg. purchasing of tickets, etc. yet right?? If so, i think it would also be good to notify mindef that we have already booked the tickets, etc.

Been so sianz and discouraged recently... ... Hmm, but hope that you guys are having peace and joy in your hearts .. remember nothing is impossible with God!!!

Joel, how's the deferment thingy so far? :)

2005-03-22T13:02:00.000-08:00

hey...

after reading the blog...i'm still blur of wad's going on, Joel... heehee.... so u need permission from MINDEF b4 u can go Thailand? how is it so far? :)

yap... some of us do face issues in one way or another... hang on there n we'll c God at work... esp when it seems impossible or difficult!....

jia you ppl!

luv,
chai

With regards to yr deferment

2005-03-22T09:14:00.000-08:00

H Joel..

I'm in the process of yr letter... waiting for the gen12II staff to approve and amend... so dun worry!! As for the flight details, it's not confirm yet cos we have not booked the tickets... Joy Seng is waiting for the agency to reply him... He said he will chase after them.. so i hope to hear from him very soon! DO you need the flight details for them to approve yr deferment? If yes, i'll chase Joy Seng for the flight details...

Yup... As for the letter of invitation, i've asked the person i/c in pattaya to help, but he is currently in US so he can't write it now.. he said the earliest he can gave us is around mid April.. therefore i think we should give our local letter to MINDEF 1st, if MINDEF really needs to invitation letter, i'll let him know again... is that ok?

The reply from Mindef

2005-03-16T19:00:00.000-08:00

"We refer to your email. We would appreciate if you could provide the following documents: letter from the christian mission, invitation, flight arrangements(if any) or any other relevant documents."
Hmm, ok right now, i think i would need to submit all these stuff to them before they will consider my application. Calyn, how can i get them??

And guys, there's this overseas notification thing if you login in to MyMIW... i think you will need to submit the details of our trip. BUT this is not enough, you will need to get approval from your reservist unit commander. You can do it through e-mail (like me) or fax them. Go to the MIW website for more details. Well, the best case scenario is that you don't even get any CallUp this year. Let's Pray...

e-mail : mailnssc@starnet.gov.sg

PLs Pray!!

2005-03-16T06:27:00.000-08:00

OH yes... Pls be on guard to spiritual warfare!!!
Ever since Gen 12II started this year, many things have happen!!I believe the evil one is not very happy to what we are doing here... So pls keep on praying!! Remember the training on spiritual mapping... We need to be sensitive to what we are facing and experiencing... So pls be on yr guard to such an issue!! Keep on praying!! Prayer works wonder!!

PS: Joel has reminded the guys abt informing Mindef about your absence from 27 May - 6 Jun!! pls do so soon!! thanks:)

Yeah, we have our own blog =)

Hmm, a minor problem came up on my side. I just received my NS reservists CallUp yesterday... and the dates of my ICT (in-camp-training) is 30/05/2005 to 03/06/2005.
Oh my goodness!! Those dates clashed with the Southern Cross Project.

I have applied for a deferment of my ICT through an e-mail yesterday. Still waiting for the reply from my reservists unit. People, i just need you to pray that i can have the favour from my Unit and pray that my application for the deferment of my ICT be granted.

Also guys, if you have been through anything similair to what i am experiencing with NS CallUps, pls give me some advice on what i should do =)

God bless..

Joel
