The guy is lucky he is not getting executed.
I was in Singapore on a business trip for about 2 weeks earlier this year. It's a wonderful country. Everyone seems to be happy and most places where I visited were extremely clean. All people do for entertainment are going to mall, watch movies, and going out to eat. It's a bit creepy actually. - 360news, on 07/19/2008, -0/+1You would think a journalist gets paid enough to not have to supply drugs
