The song playing on this blog now is called Don't Look Back in Anger by Oasis. One of the greatest song in the world now in my opinion.

Anyway, our nation had been under some negative limelight in the recent weeks. An vietnamese-australian was hanged last friday due to drug trafficking despite pleas from the australian government and the united nation. Well, all i can say is that i'm in for his execution. He had already been warned many times on the plane as well as at the airport that bringing drug into my country above 0.5gram brings a death penalty. Even below that amount, it already had a life sentence on the person if convicted. His defense was that he was helping his twin brother to pay off debt as well as his own. A very weak arguement in my opinion as there are alot of jobs in the world that he took up to pay off the debt. He had 396.2gram of heroin strapped into his body when he was caught which is about 25 times the amount that mandates a death sentence. At least our government stepped down a little because his mother was allowed to hug and touch him on the day before his execution. Normally, they only be allowed to speak to each other through the glass panel at the death row. I'm also surprised by the fact that in australia, the people over there actually holds a virgil for him. What the fuck, a virgil and memorial in a wide scale for a convicted person. I don't know what are they thinking and somemore, they claimed that they are against death penalty but are pushing for death for the bali bombers and terrorists all along. This really contradicted themselves and really made them looks like some cross-faced bastards. Also, some childish admin over at putfile.com actually blocked all singapore ip from using their service. Well you people are plain immature and i might be younger than you, but i still knew all my actions all along even i always act like an plain idiot all the time. Please, you are not the only one offering uploading and hosting service in the world and not the best as well. There are much better alternative such as savefile, rapidshare, yousendit or even youtube for us singaporean to use. Somemore your arguement is regarding our method, how about you donating a electric chair, some bullet or even manufacture dosage for the lethal injections for our use.

My personal opinion is that eventhough i too against capital punishment as man cannot play God. Only God himself can take away a person life because he is the creator of man. Just like the saying "I can make you, and i can break you as well." But laws are laws. Imagined a place without rules, i guessed it will not be an utopia as most people imagined. I'm happy that Singapore had a reputation of being a nanny state as it had made our lives more safer. Seldom had in any country that the people feels safe walking on the street late at night. We also had the lowest crime rate in the world, had one of the busiest port and airport in the world. Singapore is also one of the few countries in Asia that emerged from the ruin of World War 2 to become one of the most high tech country in the span of 30 years. We are considered a 1st world country in geography terms and i'm proud of that. Even our neighbour such as Malaysia is only considered inbetween 1st world and 3rd world. Can say being "2nd world" if that term exist. Anyway, if we really go and so called cancel his execution, i guessed alot of people in the deathrow will sure to push for the same rights. This cannot happened unless there is abolishment of death penalty. For your info, the hanging is the longshot method. Which is the most effective in term that it death occured only 3minutes after the trapdoor opened. Even the prisoner might not knew he was dead because the moment it opened, he is already unconcious. Some may claimed that he is moving or struggling and that is because of his spinal or muscle reaction. The most barbaric method is the electrocution method as some of them turned into "charcoal" because a simple jolt couldn't get them to die.

So the debate about him, australia, capital punishment are very meaningless. And putfile's admin, get a life. Suspending singaporean from using your service will not make any difference at all.
