Ok, that sounds like the underwear gnome success plan. What exactly did they do in Singapore?

See post 18 plus an additional: Addicts have three attempts at rehab to get clean. If they fail them all, they get exiled to one of the little islands off the city state.

A couple of times a month, a barge backs in and unloads fresh food, canned goods and rudimentary building supplies. They collect any bodies (for cremation) and trash which have been properly staged by the dock.

Other than that, you are on your own. There are only two ways to get off the island:

  1. Die and have your corpse collected for cremation.
  2. Get clean and apply for permission to re-enter normal society.

Most druggies select option #1.
