SINGAPORE: A 29-year-old who was born in Singapore was sentenced to six months in prison today after pleading guilty to violating the Enlistment Act by failing to return to Singapore for a decade after his exit permit expired.

According to CNA, Lau’s mother reminded him of his obligation to return to Singapore to serve in the military and even helped him apply for a visa to postpone his military service. Lau registered to serve in the army in September 2010, but he failed to return to Singapore in August 2010. He knew that he would have to face imprisonment upon his return to Singapore, but he still chose to make the move.
