A drug trafficker... IS a drug trafficker, there is NO difference as to who runs this place.
The only fitting penalty, is the death penalty.
Your mind is so biased and against the ruling party that even something this simple to understand, you would also pin the blame on the LEE regime.
I would gladly put you in Columbia's drug infested region and see whether you still have such passion fighting for a drug trafficker's life.
Unfortunately famiLEE LEEgime is uniquely Singapore in hanging tiny drug runners and then protect and service the big druglords. Given if other were any other govt doing this I will equally oppose them with difference.
Even Myanmar Junta isn't so bad, they aren't hanging people for tiny amount of drugs, but they are just corruptly cooperating with the big druglords. They also have do be removed and punished by the Burmese people.
Drug is weight measurable, just like money. If you robbed $10 your crime is different from robbing $1,000 different from $1,000,000 so on. There is a scale. Punishment must be reasonably proportional to the crime committed.
Otherwise there is no one to have any faith to system of justice.
LEEgime justice is a joke!
