Singapore, way to go

Singapore sentences Ghanaian drug trafficker to death

Human rights groups have strongly urged Singapore to abolish the death penalty, but the government maintains that it plays a key role in keeping crime down and is a strong deterrent to organised crime gangs.

In December 2004 Singapore hanged a 25-year-old Australian drug runner Nguyen Tuong Van, despite appeals for clemency by then Prime Minister John Howard.

Two convicted African drug traffickers were put to death in 2007 after their appeals for clemency were turned down and despite protests from the United Nations and rights activists.

Singapore did a fantastic job in being impartial. Although we will feel sorry for turning the request of then Aussie PM John Howard down but law is law (I didn't know Singapore ignore the protests from UN DO you?). Whole world knows that you can't break law in Singapore esp. dealing with drugs. Singapore will never ever tolerate anyone from anywhere doing illegals in Singapore and that I am so proud of Singapore.

Yeah, we know about Mas Selamat, the child's passport case, bla bla bla... but those are because of individuals that spoiled the image of our fantastic law enforcer. Look at how many are now behind bars? Efficient, we are. Mas Selamat is either dead in the sea by now or if he is still running, it's obvious someone is keeping him. Hais. if you are the one, PLEASE, DON"T BE STUPID. Help one terrorist and no one can help you when all nations rain on you!
