Malaysians torturing ethnic Chinese?
Why old chap, who cares? ...we're all to busy fretting over whether the Prime Minister should attend a cricket match.
Memo to all:
I don't like it anymore than you do, but I think everyone has to accept that Nguyen Tuong Van is a goner.
Speaking of meaningless gestures, this one's about as pointless as village idiot Bob Brown's (and the ACTU's) idea that we "boycott" our closest ally in southeast Asia even though they're only exercising a punishment they even mete out on their own citizens.
Funny, I thought the Greens were all about respecting diversity.
I guess some aspects of "diversity" are better than others, eh, Bob? Who would've thought...
A related article on the current fashion: It's all Howard's fault! and then this one: Singapore "deadly serious" - which contains this quote:
“Singapore is Australia’s Texas”.
Ah, I get it.... We all dress up in cowboy outfits and attend rodeos there?
Drill for oil?
Chase Latina girls?
Create soap operas with ridiculous cliffhangers and retcons?
Posted by Quentin George at November 28, 2005 07:13 PMI think people need to understand that this man is a criminal. I congratulate Singapore for helping clean up the streets of Sydney.
P.S. I wonder if Lara will get another double century?
Posted by: Dan at November 28, 2005 09:48 PMWorse retcon ever!
I never got that Family Guy (Da Boom) episode ending until recently...
I can't believe I'm nerdy enough to know what "retcon"means.

Posted by: Engels at November 28, 2005 11:39 PMI agree with the Dan man on this. He did the crime he can do the time (only a few more days) ;)
Bring back the death penalty here too. Martin Briant (sp) could have done with a good hanging.
Posted by: jimbo at November 29, 2005 12:39 PMYeah, but he was only passing through Singapore Airport wasn't he?
And the actual means of execution are barbaric, to say the least. Even the Jews had gentle carbon-monoxide poisoning to put them to sleep.
What? Too soon?
Posted by: Engels at November 29, 2005 03:44 PMI wasn't aware WWII Jews were all involved in the narcotics trade.
Huh.
