We must avoid

Hella propaganda lol. the war on drugs has been an epic failure across the world. The war on drugs has destroyed, decimated, and killed far more lives than drugs have. You act like you care about saving lives from drug abuse, so if you catch someone with drugs you're gonna kidnap them at gunpoint and lock them in cage and torture them or even kill them :| Stop your pathetic excuses for authoritarianism.

Say NO to propaganda, zero tolerance to propaganda.

Alcohol has the same potential to destroy thousands of lives and families just as much as illegal drugs if not worse. Alcohol causes road accidents, violent crimes and irrationale behavior such as sexual assault. Please ban alcohol too.

Is there any proof that the death penalty is an effective deterrent? Even after so many years, it seems like the supply and demand for drugs has been increasing.

What if a former drug user still consumes alcohol occasionally, is that also considered a relapse since alcohol is also a recreational drug? Or is that considered acceptable because alcohol is not illegal?

In many countries around the world, cannabis is legalized for recreational use. In Singapore however, the government has executed people for cannabis trafficking. So how is that even justified?

The death penalty is a harsh and ineffective punishment that disproportionately affects marginalized communities, and there is little evidence to suggest that the death penalty is an effective deterrent for drug trafficking.

The world should learn from Singapore when it comes to drug trafficking and abuse.

I wouldn't call them innocent victim because they were taught during school stay away from drugs and gang fight even there's shown a video if they taken drugs by they're own free will no body force them

Australia needs the death penalty for drug traffickers.

The fact they included weed here is preposterous. Opiates and synthetic drugs are the problem. Don’t even compare the two

Dont let us fall fown instead let us fight-me

Hi Mr Shanmugam, can you upload Crimewatch 2009 episode 5? Very important to have this show available online to show Singaporeans the horror of drug abuse!

I watched the failure of Canada's leniency on drugs first hand. I wish we had Singapore's tough on drugs policy. Having drug laws with no consequences is madness. My wife's drug use was certainly not victimless. It definitely had an adverse impact on our four children, and I. I beg your country to continue to be a beacon for drug control policy. Please, resist the external pressures to change. Your laws show that you place the wellbeing and safety of children and families first. Thank you for being what Ronald Reagan would call a shining city on the hill. Long live Singapore.

We MUST control drug abuse! the baby face in the video makes me cry

Singapore has done a fantastic job controlling the drug problem.

Death penalty as a deterrence, even that is so there would be a thorough case review before such a ruling is made.
