should Pakistan make military service mandatory for all citizens?

[Reichsmarschall]

Yes, none of the task is required to get totally completed but that's a very oudated way to monitor the potential. If you're talking about confidence and the one who comes up with an idea is confident. What if there are 4 confident guys out of 8? Who's gonna brief it in the end? That's why it no longer works. ARmy is not looking for a super confident lad. They're not gonna hire him for modeling. It's their job to build him as required at the PMA.

then why they tell us Confident raho ager koi ghalat jawab b do tou confident se do

Brother that's a very different situation as compared to the confidence you were talking about.

you may dont know we already have gun culture and people here proudly pose with guns like a peace of wood and metal is really achievement . giving them training is like fueling weapons and torture more .

Failure of the government and authorities to irradictae the guns, then again political parties are partially responsible for arming their own hitmen.

ISSB system is outdated. Still the same procedures are being used which were there in 1950s. Other Armies aren't fool to update their procedures. Only PA IA and BA use this.

PA is among the top armies in the world and consistently rewarded and acknowledged for its performance and professionalism globally so whatever it is doing seems to be working and producing good results. So no need to change something that is working properly.

BTW what systems other top armies have and how those are different from ISSB (other than name)?

If military service became mandatory, wouldn't that mean the entire population of the country would be subject to the Pakistan Army Act from draft age until retirement?

I do think Pakistan needs to introduce compulsory national service for all able bodied males between ages 18-19. Almost every great country has see this 'rite of passage'. NS has many benefits. I can't think of any great country today that has not had extended national service as it is crucial in speeding up the process of nation making.

1. It homogenizes society by bringing all the diverse peoples of a country into close contact. This fosters national unity and moulds a one aspect nation. It also helps to break down tribal, ethnic, religious cleavages.
2. It inculcates the young with discipline and the time can be used to teach these young men vital life skills.
3. The force thus raised can be used on national building projects like cleaning, labour, planting trees, providing education to distan areas and in emergency can act as reserve force.
4. Those who show aptitude for this type of life could apply to join the regular military thus providing a vital feedstock to the regular army.
5. The young men can be given physical health training that would place them in good stead for their later life which will improve the nations health.
6. By doing hard training outside and labout you inculcate the value of hard honest work.
7. It inculcates patriotism under one flag. Witness the Turks and their absolute love of red crescent/star.
8. Some elements of this force could be spread across the country to beef up internal/law order. Read Turkish Jandarma, Spanish Civil Garde, French Genderarme etc

i think otherways sir
no Pakistani civilian should given any military or weapons training
no civilian Pakistan should own -carry-use guns
Pakistan must be hostile of gun culture
police and security only carry pistols not smgs in public
there must be awareness in schools that guns are harmful and they just take lives nothing more
only military of Pakistan have heave weapons .
a nationwide long operation to clean Pakistan from weapons

students better given training for harmony love care and civil rights
people need here training for how to crub corruption - how to vote - how to use civil services - how to behave lie civil

i want military ssg top elite breeding program for female and males.
You want elite military genes.
prisoners should be sent to working camp to help the military recruits by sewing and making clothes and boots for them.
plus military boot camp for fat kid and the naughty.
A youth club is good where young kid can go camping, hiking, survival, military training.

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

Should speak with the Turks as they have compulsory military training in place.

Conscription is a bad idea...

Pretty sure even Turkey is abolishing it...

 

[Azadkashmir]

if pak invaded the pak nation doesn't even know how to load a gun up.
USA has shootings too but they never will give up 2nd amendment they already feeling that governmnet is out of control.

Under the PAA, when a member of the military commits a civil offense it is up to the "prescribed officer" to decide if the person should be tried in a military or civil court. Already the Pakistani military doesn't take orders from the elected civilian leadership. So if service became mandatory essentially the entire population would be put under military rule, yes? Elected officials would become mere elected servants, right? And the civilian courts would become the military's satellite institutions.

I am ok with it , I would like to get control of few tanks and 20 Helicopters and 10,000 Troops

Human psychology is the same as it was in the 90s. thats all they check. Your mental and physical ability to join the armed forces.

Draftees rarely rise to become divisional commanders! So your "control" would more likely be found changing tank tracks or replacing rotor blades or cleaning privies.
