Boy you got that right.

From wikipedia:

Men above the age of 50 cannot be sentenced to caning. However, the law was amended in 2006 such that men convicted of sex offences may still be sentenced to caning even if they are above the age of 50. In 2008, a 56-year-old man was sentenced to 57 years jail and 12 strokes of the cane for rape

Further up in the article it says “18-50” 24 strokes.

You’re missing visiting a truly remarkable city state! No drugs, no Gays, clean as a pin, and very friendly citizens. Just what is “effed up” about their justice system? Because they kill you for drug trafficking? You won’t find a drug problem there!
I loved staying at the “old” Raffles Hotel.
