Repost assignment-PLKN

PLKN does more good than harm
The Malaysian National Service or Program Khidmat Negara (PLKN) is a service that provide military program. The participants who have to get involved in this service must stay in the camp about 3 months. I as SPM level in 2006 do not have chance to get involved in the PLKN. I feel so sad because I heard from my friends they were really enjoy doing many activities at the camp but although they tell the good story about PLKN I also hear a lot of bad story about PLKN and make me do not agree to this title above although I want to get involved in this activity.
I read a lot of news about PLKN, it really make me shock because this national service also have problem of ethnic and race. I also heard some parents complaint that the camp do not give good quality food and lack of imbalanced diet for the participants that why one of the participants have to suffered food poisoning due to food served on the first day of the camp! The governments just think that the issue is not important. This story will make the future participants become scare to get involved to the PLKN. Other problem that I find in this activity is the selection system where the computer just pick up the trainees randomly without know what the trainees problem and their social status. Some of them have to work to help their family even some of the trainees have married and become young mother that why I think this program select the trainees which are considered as inhumane.
These are my reasons why I do not agree with this title. The government should improve in this program.
