Violent for sure. However Singnapore seems to have a lot of other societal problems under control via the threat of harsh punishment. Same as the UAE (or they’ll just kick you out, since many aren’t naturalized citizens) I don’t agree with the harsh punishments, though many western cities are being over taken by drugs, crime, and homelessness. The current policies we have in places like LA and Seattle do not work, it’s plainly evident. Should we be more brutal in our punishments? Not necessarily. But we’ve tried this experiment since asylums were shut down decades ago, and it doesn’t seem to have produced the outcome expected.
