i think the NBI cert is different form the police clearance. the police clearance only covers a certain jurisdiction whereas the NBI is for nationwide scope. i am not familiar with the NBI card but as far as i know, when we brought our old NBI cert just so for the renewal only, the authorities informed us of the updated electronic system, thus the old cert is considered a stale copy; meaning no renewal is allowed. all applicants are considered a never-been-issued-certs-applicants.

Thanks Han. Good luck!

All, if you guys all doing meds, male sure to drink lots of water. My colleague had to redo medical because he failed in urine test. Use water to 'flush' out unwanted stuff the day before to get better result....

@ hongkiat, one tip from my doctor/friend:

also consider taking a glass of pineapple juice everyday, avoid too much meat fats (highly recommended are fish, fruits & veggies) & get enough sleep & rest the day before the schedule. funny, in an instance, we are all becoming health conscious.

and it's all because of one OZ dream.

Il consider your advice. But for my hubby, he doesnt eat veggie and very choosy in eating fish and fruits. He might as well start now.
