i think that it is disgusting to take the life of this young man who is clearly sorry for what he has done. he shows such promise as a young man and if spared his life would do great things. he is a smart well adjusted young man who made a mistake. everyone in his position deserves a second chance. i do not condone what he did for if those drugs had reached the streets many more lives may have been lost. but if not him today, then someone else tomorrow will bring in drugs to this country. i believe he should have been spared his life because he was caught and no-one was harmed by the drugs he was carrying. in my eyes singapore has murdered this young man in a barbaric way that should never again be allowed to be practised.
