Help sign petition - Give Yong Vui Kong a second chance


Yong Vui Kong, a 22-year old Malaysian, was sentenced to mandatory death in January 2009, for trafficking 47 grams of Heroin into Singapore. He had exhausted his appeals by August this year and he’ll be hanged next month! He can only escape execution if the Singapore President grants clemency.

  1. Why should we save him? He has broken the law. The 47 grams if heroine can harm a person if it had not been discovered.

  2. Dear kelvin, of course we doesn't tolerate with drug abuse and trafficking, but given a thorough review on his scenario and background and the overall environment when he regretfully conducted such wrong doing, we belief by giving him a second chance even it will still be life-sentence one, he could use the remaining days of his life to counsel fellow inmates and also educate the general public on how drugs destroy life. "Reward and punishments are the twin pillars of Justice. But within the boundaries of Justice, we may find compassion for the new leaf." -Raymond Tay 30.07.2010 comment in petition
