How could the authorities in Singapore cane someone for chewing gum?

Because it’s their country and they get to make the rules.

Caning someone is completely different than murdering them.

Don’t you think drug treatment for addicts would be more constructive than slaughtering them?

I have known people who are former drug addicts who got clean and went on to live meaningful lives. Good thing they didn’t live under Duterte’s regime or they wouldn’t have received that opportunity.
