  • We’re in agreement, then. It’s a shame that the woman was straight up executed for such a tiny amount over the limit. I bet most of us couldn’t even feel that 15 grams of difference if placed on our palms. But that’s how it is in SG despite us outsiders wishing for a less than lethal judgement, and they do try to warn people of the consequences of possession at every step of the way to that country. So the onus is, to an extent, on the visitors as well to protect themselves.

    I watched a few vids in the past where random Singaporeans were asked what they thought of the capital punishment and while most agreed it was severe, they also said it made sense considering their country was hamstrung by widespread opium addiction in the past. Unfortunate, but if the Singaporeans themselves don’t push for the change, it’s unlikely to happen anytime soon.
