Capitol punishment belongs in the Dark Ages!!
I challenge any of you to visit the hanging rooms in any of our old jails, view the trap door, hanging noose and yell; “Van Nguyen should hang!” Then remember the last guy we hanged in the 50’s turned out to be innocent.
Its time that countries like Singapore, Indonesian, Malaysia, goddam America and others joined the civilised world and outlawed capitol punishment!!
If rattling the trade sanction sword is needed, and then do it. I am sick and tired of countries, like Singapore, running and crying with their “loss of face” when another country criticizes them. If you want to be part of the big world, learn to accept it.
Back to the topic – no to any SQ/GF merger, and no SQ, you cannot ply the pacific route until your country grows up!!
