请假办宣誓手续未获批 服役青年痛失公民权

现年23岁的许姓青年,在服役期间得知需前往宣誓(ORAL)以保住公民权,为此向军队申请年假但未获批,致使他无法出营完成手续,过了宣誓期限而痛失公民权。

根据《联合晚报》报导,这名青年父亲是新加坡人,母亲泰籍。当年他是在母亲返泰探亲时出生,一个月后回狮城,取得新加坡公民权,自此一直在本国求学、成长。

许姓青年和其他人一样,他在两年前被征召入伍,在该年9月5日满21岁生日,收到移民局来信,称他是通过血缘与注册获得公民权的未成年公民,为此需在一年限期内,完成宣誓手续,正式成为公民。

许先生需前往泰国,办理证明放弃泰国国籍文件,再到泰国领事馆宣誓放弃泰公民权,需要花时间办理。这些都是在宣誓新加坡公民权时,需向移民局提交的文件。

许先生称,曾多次向军中请假但是都不被批准,致使错过宣誓期限。

国防部:青年未提交相关文件

不过,国防部否认许姓青年说辞,指出后者在服役期间,都不曾请假,也没有提交任何相关文件,为此才不批假期。直到去年7月,在许姓青年宣誓截止日前的两个月,许姓青年才开始申请假期。

许先生在军中担任负责培训新兵的组长,直到去年9月9日,这时已过了法定宣誓的期限。

国防部发言人称,如果许姓青年能提交相关文件,证明需请假前往宣誓,国防部必全力支持。

移民局则强调,宣誓文件必须在一年期限内处理,否则将丧失公民权。根据我国宪法,通过血缘或注册获得公民权的未成年青年,在年满21岁后,须在一年内完成宣誓公民手续。

在许姓青年年满22岁生日前六个月,移民局也再发函提醒。该局称,公民权乃严肃课题,一旦被褫夺,将很难再恢复公民身份。无论如何,该局仍在考量许姓青年的申请。

许姓青年:获公民权必贡献社会

许姓青年称,自己在去年12月,才收到泰国取得的相关证件,但新国公民权已被褫夺。目前,他只能以特别准证继续留在本国,准证有效期三个月,下一次若未获批准延期,就必须离开新加坡。

他表示,自己的家人都在这里,不想离开,为此一直想办法恢复公民权。虽然上次重新申请被拒,但仍会一再尝试。“若能留下来,必会好好贡献社会。”

许姓青年的遭遇令网民感到同情,认为他相对其他少数公民和永久居民,至少他完成了军役。网民劳伦斯揶揄,所谓“外国专才”取得公民权就没有问题,但是这名服了兵役的青年,却遭遇一波三折。

王迈克(译音)则呼吁李总理,新加坡需要类似的忠诚青年,国家必须得做点什么,改善者情况。不过,詹世丹(译音)则有不同看法,他认为许姓青年对待公民权一事,确实有疏忽,明知公民权会被褫夺,却要在最后一分钟才处理,是自食其果。
