Rejected petition Compulsory National Service
More details
In order to teach the youth of today respect, obedience and hard-work. We petition for compulsory national service to be reinstated. Our broken society is clearly evident now more than ever and generations are opting for a life of benefits.
An age range for this to take place could be between 16 and 21 years old.
Matters such as opt-out through illness or disability are clearly matters for later discussion.
