    Executed for a kg of weed. A plant that you can grow well over a kg legally in most counties for personal use.

    They cite that ‘up to 144 people could have used this weed to get high for a week’ as cause for taking the man’s life. Oh no, 144 people with the munchies, using a drug less dangerous than beer.

    Sorry Omar, Singapore is still a conservative, draconian mess. Rip.

      I was there just last week and it does not feel like a happy place to live - a lot of people there would benefit from a decent joint.

      Also, it’s illegal to take durians on the metro, so if you ever visit take that into account.
