Exactly, I plan to pursue further. Erm, I called them and they changed it for me, it's 4 years for PILN, i think all the same. Some of my friends have blanks too..

I think what's scary about choosing Pure Science course is the lack of information regarding the future and career prospects of the scholars. I have tried to google "pure science" before, and I must say the search results pretty much show repeated, and at the same time, little information (but then again, maybe I'm lousy at googling, hehe.. )

I believe a lot of those who chose Pure Science right here have been questioned by those around them regarding their choice. I personally chose Pure Science because it sounds very challenging and you'll never know what you will be in the future ! You may end up as a secondary school teacher or some researcher in a fancy lab! Either way, it just sounds fun and (rationally) risky!

For the JPA bond, you can apply to serve later if you decide to further your studies. After you've gotten your Master/PhD, you have a pass to the whole world! As long as you get a job that is enough for you to pay back, why not choose to pay back JPA for breaking bond?
Gosh, i sound discouraging people from going back to Msia.

We can only choose bio/phy/che or there are further branches like genetic, microbiology, neuroscience or something like that?

That depends on your uni/college. For my uni they changed criteria and names of biology majors every year...
