Singapore: The caning country

So at the end the verdict is out. Oliver Fricker, the Swiss national who spray painted half of an MRT train a few months ago will be caned.
Indeed it was rather stupid, especially in a country like this, where the only 'graffitis" allowed must be first approved by a governement pannel and only made by good citizens with cropped hairs in governement approved areas....
But to sentence him to to be caned is barbaric and shows how narrow minded, third world country and hypocritical this place really is. Besides caning amounts to torture and is a violation of Article 1 of the United Nations Convention against Torture!
Shame on Singapore!
And just to remind everyone how barbaric caning is, just watch this video.
