My wife worked for 4 years in Singapore before coming to Canada in 1990.
Crime there is virtually non existent.

After all they hang drug traffickers!

Over here we don't want to put drug dealers out of business, too much money to be made.

Yes, it can be won.

Yep just where I want to live.

You will be prosecuted for chewing gum trafficking if you try to smuggle more than 1 kg of chewing gum through customs. The rationale is that you can't obviously be bringing in 1kg for personal consumption. The punishment for chewing gum trafficking is up to 1 year in prison and/or 5 strokes of the cane.
