Something laudable during Marcos time. Kahit na despot, tinakot niya lahat ng mga kriminals with kamay na bakal. Yung mga sunod na presidente puro malambot ang puso. Kaya mga pinoy ngayon di takot sa batas, dinadaan sa awa effect...

According to TV Patrol:

- Apparently, it's not just one small bag of drugs or anything but it's a whole friggin' lot of them. Many kilos of them.
- Accused claim that they thought they were contraband goods but never thought they would be drugs. So, they executed the act in full knowledge that they were carrying illegal goods. *facepalm*

No wonder China wouldn't budge.

British man said to be mentally ill executed in China
12:12 GMT, Tuesday, 29 December 2009

A British man convicted of drug smuggling in China has been executed, the Foreign Office has confirmed.

Akmal Shaikh, 53, a father-of-three, of London, had denied any wrongdoing and his family said he was mentally ill.

The execution took place despite repeated calls from his family and the British government for clemency.

Mr Shaikh's family said he had been delusional and duped into a carrying a suitcase that did not belong to him when he was found with 4kg of heroin in Urumqi, north-west China, in September 2007.

His daughter has said drug smugglers in Poland convinced him they would make him a pop star in China.

The President said the Ambassador pointed out that China is "very, very strict with [its] drug laws" where the issue of drugs is a major problem.

"To a degree, medyo mahirap na ipakiusap dahil drugs e. Tsaka nung binabasa natin ang records, kilo-kilo ang pinag-uusapan. Yung drugs is a worldwide problem. We have to respect their sovereignty and kung dumaan [ba] sa sistema nila, wala tayong masasabi sa process nung trial," Aquino said.

However, the President is hoping that Chinese authorities grant the Philippine government's appeal, saying that "our request is very, very reasonable."

The President is confident that the row between China and the Philippines following the government's handling of the August 23 Manila hostage crisis will not affect the fate of the 6 Filipinos.

Aquino said the Philippines and China have since had "very good relations," citing the recent deportation of Taiwanese nationals to China.

"We think we have very good relations with them, yung latest issue sa dineport who were criminals also. But unfortunately, we have not yet been successful [in the appeal]. But we will not stop," he said.

The Philippines also did not send a representative to the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo as a way to appease China, which had protested the award.

"Our request is very, very reasonable. It is time for them also to demonstrate their oft-pronounced statements of improved and closer bilateral ties. This will be a test," Aquino said.

"Marami tayong nahuhuling mga Chinese nationalities involved in drugs but we have not executed any because we have done away with the death penalty. We'd like to see some reciprocity," he add.
