"“We are also extremely concerned by reports about increasing pressure and acts of intimidation by the authorities against activists,journalists, legal professionals and human rights defenders who peacefully advocate against the death penalty and/or represent persons on death row, and the chilling effect such acts have on civicspace,” the experts said. “The act of expressing one’s opinion and protesting against the death penalty should be tolerated in a democratic country.”

The experts urged the Singaporean authorities to suspend the further execution of individuals on death row for drug offenses and commutetheir death sentences to imprisonment consistent with international human rights law and standards.

"We urge the Government of Singapore to immediately establish an official moratorium on all executions with a view to fully abolishing the death penalty,” the UN experts said.

They said the Government of Singapore should review, without delay, the scope of the death penalty, particularly with regard to drug-related offences, in order to ensure that its imposition and implementation arestrictly limited to cases involving intentional killing."

I truly believe there are 2 sides .

.I am not on the PAP side nor the anti death penalty side.

Singapore has been hanging drug mules to deal with  our drug problems for decades. It is also true our drug problem is much more controlled and contained than in other countries like US. In US people are dying on streets everyday of drug overdose.

It is inhumane to hang people who traffic drugs due to desperate circumstances. Many countries who believe this also live with their drug problem which is often severe

Life is a trade off ...there is no perfect solution for this problem.

There only line of logical argument that is independent of values against death penalty is that we can abolish it and our drug problem will become severe  ...there is insufficient evidence this is true.

I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Because they rape you can molest?
Using someone else sin to justify your own is also despicable.

This type of argument is flawed and destructive

Nowadays in Taiwan murderers enjoy good life in the prisons, no death penalty, everyday they serve  different types of food and deserts inside the prison, every year can go home for a few week holiday….should Spore follow the same? Taiwan has very powerful anti-death penalty group supporting them.
