Getting to the heart of Total Defense (Home-Youthink pg B7)
Q1) In the last line, what did the writer mean by suggesting that “he may have found more porcupines than rats?”
Q2) What’s worth giving up your life for?
It means a lot to people as we live in Singapore so we should give up our life for our own country. it means a lot to people as those who are disabled in any way, they cannot defend our country. as we know, there are 5 defense, physcological defense, social defense, military defense, civil defence, and economic defence. for a girl, military defence is not compulsary, so lets not talk about that(i want to but i am not fit. ahaa.). for civil defence, it is about taking care of your family, friends, and people around you in times of crisis. Everyone can do that. For economic defence, it is for those who worked, starting to work or working as it is about working and saving to achieve a better life for everyone. i can do that when i grow up. For social defence, it is about living in harmony, looking out for one another. thinking about one another. that is happening everywhere. for phsycological defence, it is about our loyalty towards Singapore. i am loyal.
