Star: SEREMBAN: Those who are selected to undergo National Service (NS) but suspect they may have health problems should go for a complete medical examination before reporting for training.
“The camp paramedics can only provide basic medical treatment,'' said NS Training Council chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye after visiting Kem Seri Perkasa in Mantin yesterday.
Lee said if there was a serious case, the camp commandant would rush the trainee to the nearest clinic or hospital.
“As such, if a trainee suspects he or she may have a health problem, it's advisable for them to go for a complete medical test before reporting for training,” he added.
He said exemptions could be given to those found medically unfit.
