3 Japanese Drug smugglers executed in China
 

This year, three more Japanese were executed in Beijing for drug smuggling, and 28 more Japanese were detained.

I don't know about you, but I think people have no right to kill others despite their crimes.

Do you have to create a few new threads every day?

I'm sorry if my new threads are so uninteresting for the people in this forum. I see that no one is replying to my threads, is it because they are not interesting? I don't see what's wrong with making new threads. I have so much to ask and say, and they don't fit in the same category or post. What am I to do? Then please advise me, Sashimister.

It is because you just randomly post things about news-ish stories.

And because you look VERY spammer-like with your signature. I would highly suggest removing it. We do not welcome advertising here.

Since when were news topics regarding Japanese national unwelcome here?

And making it a new thread/topic makes it easier for those of us more interested in this sort of news than the latest teen fad in Tokyo to find it.

How about some more details, caisaki? Where in China? Any sort of investigation first?

If the posts were related to the Telecom industry I could see your point, but it is not. And for once it a signature that is neither over-sized or even marginally offensive like some of the others that no one seems to bother to criticize.

Thanks TalnSG..:)

I have no idea how that can be advertising or spamming. My signature is just a small siggy which is never even related to my posts. I actively participate because I am interested.

Such misunderstandings..makes this forum a lot less friendly by the way they do "justice", because they don't even try to ask or even do some sort of investigation.

Regardless; unless you offer more info than a headline, Shashimister's question will be validated.

Thanks, Noodle.

I can see why Japan has downplayed the issue, since drug smuggling is not one of their offenses that carries a death sentence and mainland China has a well founded reuptation for excessive use of execution and torture.

While this was a rather small amount of meth that was being transported, there was at least a traceable operation involving more than a single supplier and user. And like the rest of the world China is having a serious problem with meth labs. It is rumored that it may be even more of problem there than in the west, and if so anyone (especially a foreign national) is going to be made an extreme example of.

So you think it is acceptable for someone to manufacture and supply meth which kills on a massive scale, rather than kill those who cause the deaths?
