Should every 18 year old citizen be required to provide at least one year of military service?

Yes, but for a shoter time frame of say 3 months

No, but they should have to do a year of compulsory retail or hospitality work

it should be your own choice rather if you want to join military service or not

Yes it might help to change the future of this country with all the holligans we have roaming around

Every 18 year old citizen should have to do a year of civil service - but military service should only be an option, not the only one.

Only if there is risk of conflcit in which we are directly affected.

People starting to build criminality & people unwilling to find work.

For people building a criminal record & people who don't do further education or get a job.

For those who do not pursue education or work should focus on skill development

Yes, but focused on military training in relation to civic services, or peace keeping

only da boys even them trans ones

6 to 12 weeks

Everyone should be required to do at least one year of COMMUNITY service

Should be used for young repeat offenders

Only if physically and mentally able to

Yes but raise the age to give the individual life skills and experience to understand the world they live in

It should be a choice but I think it could provide some people with an alternative approach and view at the start of their adult life

It should be intergrated into the school curriculum.

no but you should have to option

No should be a choice instead of an obligation but incentives such as free education and skill development should be implemented.

No but if they would like to they can but we cannot force them too.

All males 18 and over should

It would be good to have a year of national service, but with both military and non-military options to cater for all people.

We are supposed to live in a free democratic nation. Not communism

No, and we should replace the military with a more capable Civil Defence. Young citizens may benefit from a year in Civil Defence safety and emergency management.

No. However if our country’s safety is being provoked, then we could start from a smaller time frame (e.g. four months).

Yes, but women.

Yes. 12 months of service minimum with 24 months of service for those starting a criminal record

Yes, 1 year Mandatory for all males and woman with criminal c9nvicyions that are not employed

Yes, but with a social service option as well as the military one

Yes, but make it 18 months to two year’s mandatory, include longer terms for prisoners, and focus on both on military training and more focus on education and skill development, as well as compulsory for those who don’t pursue further education

No, but national service should be encouraged in a variety of sectors.

Yes, but it should be at least two years in a discipline of their own choice, not specifically military

Or volunteer services in a lesser privileged country so people can see how good they have it in NZ. It should change their whole outlook on life, whinge less and make people better citizens.

No, and we should work towards abolition of militaries and warfare

Only for those who do not pursue education, employment or other ventures and with focus on education and skill development/life preparation.

Yes, but not a whole year

Yes , for those building a criminal record, yes so long as they do not have a physical or mental or neurological disability and all should be tested as such rather than simply sent their because of their record otherwise No. But a substantial incentive should be provided for all to create more young people wanting to do it. Eg. A deposit I in a house.

No, the armed forces only strength is that it's a volunteer Army.

Yes, but not require dual-citizens or multi-citizens to serve in the New Zealand military if they have already been subject to conscription in said other countries. Also, there should be the option to carry out unarmed service or civil service instead of armed service.

I feel that its a good idea but for a shorter period... maybe 3 months

Every 18-year-old BOY not girl, girls aren't suitable for military service. Every 18-year-old boy should have 5 years of military survive.

it should not be compulsory but it should be encouraged to help teach the discipline and team work that we the young sorely lack. those with criminal records for violent offending should be excluded and locked up for much longer.

Yes military or goverment/social work

It should be broadened to government/council service - not all people are suitable for military service. On completion of education, if a person does not have work of some kind lined up, they should be signedup for this program.

Criminal records and probation with community services and inc increase process inc by new Zealand police and connection officers

Increase with employees by child welfare and under Europe rules is inc with new Zealand first party

Mandatory conservation service

its up to their choice becuase its their life.
