I talked with an Israeli expat in SG who told me his son returned to Israel to do military service.
Israel has an interesting program for "lone soldiers " who return to serve their country :
Garin Tzabar - Wikipedia(Hebrew%3A%20%D7%92%D7%A8%D7%A2%D7%99%D7%9F%20%D7%A6%D7%91%D7%A8,are%20called%20%22Lone%20Soldiers%22.
Do you think such a program is relevant and doable for Taiwan?
Will there be enough people interested in serving the country ?
Nobody in Taiwan wants to serve the country, and the military provides no support. As I said before basic training here is a joke.
Not sure people would want to wait not having any kind of an expected schedule.
Given the fact that tens of thousands of people signed up for civil defence training recently in light of China’s actions, I am going to file this under doubtful.
Young generation is perfectly trained for the modern warfare. Training daily on their mobile devices.
Flying a drone and dropping explosives remotely is not that different. 
Is this a government training program or one of the private programs mentioned in the news some time back?
Private programmes. I am countering the narrative that everyone can be painted with the same brush as apathetic people who don’t care and don’t want to serve their country.
Ok. Was wondering if it would be useful to do before the mandatory service to help prepare for that or even get some kind of credits for days off.
Afaik you can’t substitute it.
Civil defence training is entirely voluntary. So… if people are doing it, I think that proves that the narrative of nobody wanting to serve the country is incorrect.
First avoid the military if you want to live old.
To quote U.S. President Donald Trump, those are ‘suckers’.
Peace should always be cherished as the most precious gift in life, and preserved at any cost.
War is the result of catastrophic diplomatic failure.

• First, the Israeli case is explained by the fact that many think the Hebrew Sate could be obliviated should it lose a war.
The Hebrew State could cease to exist before 80th anniversary, says ex-premier Barak
Saturday, 07 May 2022
[Former premier Ehud Barak] noted that many regimes, including those in the United States, Italy, and Russia, have experienced the curse of the eighth decade, and that The Hebrew State is no exception, drawing an analogy between Zionism and fascism, Nazim and communism.
According to Barak, the United States witnessed a civil war in the eighties, Italy became a fascist country in the eighth decade of its rule, Germany became a Nazi country in the eighth decade, and this eventually led to its defeat and disintegration and the Soviet Union also disintegrated in the eighth decade of the communist revolution.
By forecasting the future of the Matrix-controlled wold order, one can expect the reboot of another State but located this time in Europe as a replacement of the current one of the Middle East.
This historical commercial empire covering the southeastern section of modern European Russia, southern Ukraine, Crimea, and Kazakhstan was known as Khazaria and existed from the 7th to the 10th century.
Prelude
First, the dismantlement of the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Crimea are prerequisites before core territories of Khazaria can be reclaimed.
Divided by an insurrectional war, the weakened Russian splinters would not be able to oppose the creation of the Khazarian State. Meanwhile, this new nation will see an influx of Ashkenaz population from both former Russian Federation splinters and war ravaged Ukraine.
For this end, NATO has repeatedly provoked Russia for decades, escalating tensions by crossing the obvious red line synonym of casus belli, in order to make sure Russia would take the bait, by retaliating militarily thus falling into this most deadly trap.
Russia planning massive military offensive against Ukraine involving 175,000 troops, U.S. intelligence warns
December 3, 2021
Putin has demanded the United States and its allies provide signed assurances excluding any expansion of NATO to include Ukraine and Georgia and limiting military activity near Russia’s borders, most notably in and around Ukraine.
The demands for a new European security pact come after Putin has suggested for months that U.S. and allied military activities in Ukraine and near Russia’s borders are crossing a red line for the Kremlin.
Russia needs “precise legal, judicial guarantees because our Western colleagues have failed to deliver on verbal commitments they made,” Putin said in a speech at the Kremlin this week, suggesting the start of “substantive talks on this topic.”
Putin has long railed against NATO expansion into former Warsaw Pact states as a disrespectful encroachment on Moscow. He said a concrete agreement must “rule out any further eastward expansion of NATO and the deployment of weapons systems posing a threat to us in close proximity to Russia’s territory.”
White House press secretary Jen Psaki rejected out of hand the idea that Washington would provide a guarantee that Ukraine will not enter NATO.
The kiss of death
Preparing for the Final Collapse of the Soviet Union and the Dissolution of the Russian Federation
Dec 14, 2022
However, future historians will likely describe Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine as the most consequential moment, if not the final moment, of the Soviet Union’s collapse. When the war in Ukraine will end is unknown, but it will likely mark the dissolution of the Russian Federation (the legal successor of the Soviet Union) as it is known today. Russia has undeniably suffered a major blow to its economy, devastation to its military capability, and degradation of its influence in regions where it once had clout. The borders of the Russian Federation will likely not look the same on a map in 10 or 20 years as they do now. As the final collapse of the Soviet Union plays out and as the Russian Federation faces the possibility of dissolving, policymakers need to start planning for the new geopolitical reality on the Eurasian landmass.
Goals
After the dissolution of the Russian Federation, the United States should pursue a set of achievable goals that narrowly focus on the American national interest. Specifically, the US will need to:
• Contain any spillover from internal Russian fighting.
• Account for Russia’s stockpile of weapons of mass destruction.
• etc…Planning Assumptions
• Russia will further fragment.
• China and Turkey will try to fill the power vacuum across Eurasia.
• Private armed groups will proliferate.Conclusion
The success of Ukraine on the battlefield against Russia could offer a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to put Russia back inside its geopolitical box for a generation. This would create a new geopolitical reality not seen in a generation.
Moscow Compares West’s Russia Policy to Hitler’s ‘Final Solution’
Jan. 18, 2023
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Wednesday likened Western policies on Russia to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler’s planned “Final Solution” for Europe’s Jews.
Moscow’s top diplomat — whose comments on Hitler and Jews led to President Vladimir Putin issuing a rare apology on his behalf last year — made the comparison at his annual press conference.
“Just as Napoleon mobilized practically all of Europe against the Russian Empire, just as Hitler mobilized and captured… the majority of European countries and sent them against the Soviet Union, now the United States has organized a coalition,” Lavrov said.
Western countries, he said, are “by proxy through Ukraine waging war against our country.”
“The task is the same: the final solution of the ‘Russian question.’ Just as Hitler wanted to finally solve the Jewish question.”

Commentary

Read and research yourself, history don’t lied, only fork tongue revisionists white washing history. Please google Khazaria and learn the obliviated truth.
All of today’s Ukraine and Caucasus Russia between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea were once the homeland of the Khazarians.
By the 9th century, Viking Rus’ would start to pound and repeatedly invade, ultimately destroying this empire in 968.
The rest is continuous migration in today’s Israel of the diaspora, but their homeland is and should be again reestablished in the Caucasus.
Once the 250’000 deaths mark is reached in the former core territories of Khazaria currently under Ukrainian-Russian sovereignty, the various ethnic splinter factions of the Caucasus should be encouraged in their independence armed struggle with weapon shipments.
After a decade of insurgency, the restoration of the Khazarian State should be encouraged and patronized by the Taiwanese secret service. This new buffer state would be essential to contain both Viking, Roman-Ottoman and Persian imperialism.
At the same time the new Khazarian State would become a key maritime and land node in Taiwan’s sphere of interest linking both the Middle East in the South, to the various newly founded Mongolic States in the North, to the Mediterranean World in the West.
• Secondly, the next war will be waged with robots. Why should human be sacrified as cannon fodders?
Look at these, this is not CGI:
Of course, specialized military type of quadruped bionic robots would carry a small caliber automatic gun.
▲ The China Ordnance Equipment Group Corporation (中国兵器装备集团公司) quadruped bionic robot carrying 7.62 mm caliber automatic gun with targeting optics and radar, is capable of hitting targets at a distance of 1’200 m, machine gun named QBB-97 can fire 650 rounds per minute at a range of 400 m.Meanwhile larger quadrupedal bionic robots would be able to carry missiles to provide anti-air and anti-tank support.
