Read this from the newspaper:
Some Aus chap of Asian ethnicity got arrested by the Singapore government in 2002 for trying to traffic 398g of heroin out of Singapore to Melbourne. Now he faces the death penalty in Singapore....
Now they are appealing for clemency for this poor chap. Of course it's just interesting how the papers here potray him totally as a victim of circumstances, not a criminal by choice. I would really like to look at the other side of the coin, the other part of the story. But sadly i couldnt find anything from Channel Newsaia Online.
Oh well... Hope there wont be any serious reprucussions regardless of the decisions made. Btw, if he's gonna get executed, he's just the 4th Australian to be punished by the death sentence overseas. Wow way to go SG, in the headlines for the wrong reasons... again :)
