Wrong. Singapore has not reached the level yet where you can do it openly.

Else, you would see disatisfied people protesting & demostrating openly for causes or greivances they feel deep in their heart. Not in some sactioned place like HG where the advantage of surprise & spontaneity is lost.

Didn’t Chee & his gang try to do that & look at what happened.

@music -I believe in people like you who dare to stand up for accountability in public instead of hiding under the cover of anonymity to make all sorts of wild allegations. The person who alleges is the person to substantiate it in public.

@Devagi

Yeah right. There must be no disgruntled folks under Stalin or Pol Pot or Idi Amin or Kim Jong Il. Otherwise they wouldn’t have hesitated to blow the whistle on these despots.

I suppose you also believe in Santa Claus and the tooth fairy?

@music – Singapore is run by Chinese, Malay, Indian, Eurasian and other families. CNB is also run by many other families. Within the different families there are supporters and opposition members of the gahmen. If it is so simple not to prosecute a person who had committed a crime or to hang a person who did not commit a crime, long ago such malpractices would have been exploded. Remember, there are whistle-blowers and disgruntled employees in every organisation who would not hesitate to blow it up!

“Hanging should be done, If u commit a crime, face the music .. Everyone knows singapore takes a hard stance in terms of punishment for crimes and yet they want to challenge the law , how funny”

What a load of crap. If Lee Kuan Yew’s grandson got caught selling 47 tons of heroin in Singapore, you think he would be given the death sentence?

Everyone knows that Singapore’s tough laws serve one and only one purpose: to keep the Lee family in power. Say you go to CPIB with evidence of Kwa Geok Choo’s nephew taking bribes, the next thing you know, your home is suddenly raided by the police and 47g of heroin appears out of nowhere in your toilet tank. Then a month later your mother is at Orchard Road begging pedestrians to sign a petition for your clemency.

In order to hang you for a crime you did not commit and not raise questions, they need to regularly hang small-time drug mules like Yong Vui Kong to make your hanging look like a routine thing.

Our President of Singapore Mr SR Nathan please spare this young man’s life if you can.The drug lord should be the old to be hanged but too bad they always get away cause they will pay someone do the dirty work.

I was planning to go earlier Andrew. But I have been hearing some very disturbing things about how the facts here are presented. Dont get me wrong. There is plenty of heart here. But what about the mind? just my two cents.

Is TAKING AWAY a LIFE of a HUMAN BEING Respectful of Life of another Human being?

This, is a question.

@watchtower- I hope you will not take it as practising double standard. In a murder case a life is lost and there can be many reasons for the act and before the accused is sentenced there are evidences from experts and DNA test are used where needed. To overcome this death sentences I will surely prefer a jury. A multi mis in all sense.Drug trafficking and mules.It is a sad situation where young and old, due to hardships, being threatened, duped etc are made used of.Death will not stop use of drugs. After so many hangings the drug trade is thriving around the world. The drug barons are enjoying life with their strong connections through investment and funding of parties, campaigns and projects.Check this out and you will be amazed. What about the group of cocaine abusers an elite group I beleive, who got away lightly in Singapore. Vui Kong must be counselled and integrated back to society. The family is going through a lot and Singaporeans knows that death sentence has not stopped drugs from getting into Singapore. Hope the authorities will give him achance and do away with death sentence which is cruel and barbaric. A prison sentence will surely do good

So happy to see over 12,000 over signatures in support of the cause to save this young chap from malaysia.

The numbers far surpassed that of TKL call for supporting him in an earlier event.

Give this young life a second chance, it is not about sending a wrong message but how he can saved many more with his real life experience.
