POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Dayana, myself, and three others are facing charges for Palestine solidarity actions. It would mean a lot for you to join us in solidarity at the State Courts, Court 4B, this Wednesday (9 Sep), 10am! ✊❤️

This morning, around fifty of us joined Jolovan at the same court as he faces a total of ten charges, most of which for candlelight vigils for death row prisoners. It was energising to be amongst fellow citizens, coming together in strength and perseverance.

From Changi Prison to Palestine, we say: No more blood on our hands! Stop the killing of vulnerable drug trade users / workers and Palestinians. And stop the prosecution of those seeking justice! We remain steadfast and strong in our fight, until all of us are free.

Writing this was both cathartic and painful — it helped me process, but it is also never easy to recount such a traumatic event. I am putting this out here because it is a story that deserves to be told — of the continued persecution of trans bodies, of the work that still needs to be done to free us from the violence of punitive systems, and the need to equip ordinary folks like you and I with the tools to address harm in restorative ways. And if these are important to you too, I invite you to share about this widely.

The cops won't save us, but our community will. Get organised. Build community resources. Protect trans youth. In all its struggle and celebration, love and rage, happy pride, now and forever, till we are all free some day.

(This incident is still fresh in our minds and bodies. Their investigation on me is still ongoing. I ask that anyone who chooses to comment be kind and gentle. Any bigoted comments will be deleted to protect fellow queer folks.)

Get to know our panellists for our upcoming side event at the 9th World Congress of the Death Penalty titled "A Turning Point for the Asia Pacific?: Indonesia's De Facto Abolition and Regional Trends", happening TOMORROW!

...

Will 2026 be the turning point for the Asia-Pacific?

The Asia-Pacific remains the world's most challenging landscape for death penalty abolition, hosting the highest number of executioner states. However, a historic shift is unfolding.

By July 2026, Indonesia is on track to officially become a de facto abolitionist state, marking a monumental ten-year execution hiatus.

With a new probationary framework offering a pathway for sentence commutations, Indonesia stands at a critical crossroads—symbolising both the immense progress and the fragility of capital punishment reform in our region. While several states in the Asia-Pacific have moved toward abolition or moratoria, others continue to rely on mandatory death penalty regimes.

If you are joining the global movement at the 9th World Congress Against the Death Penalty in Paris (ECPM), we invite you to join this side event. Together, we will explore how legal reform, civil society mobilisation, and regional cooperation can pave the ultimate path toward full abolition.

The PAP government claims to be concerned about the impacts of drug use, yet perpetuates these very impacts. This begs the question about the intentions and evidence its current drug policies are shaped by.

Furthermore, why are some stimulants made illegal while others aren't? And why do we rely on them in the first place?

At the end of the day, we, the workers, are all struggling to make ends meet, to provide for ourselves and our loved ones. Why should we be punished for that, and how society be reshaped to better support our material needs?

Is Singapore's approach to school discipline truly about creating better citizens? The Ministry of Education has maintained caning as part of their "thoughtful and evidence-based plan" to address bullying. While bullying is a serious issue to be addressed, and all students deserve to feel safe at school, we question why corporal punishment is still an approach used.

Firstly, why is this form of "discipline" reserved exclusively for boys? MOE claims this is based on "ground wisdom and research," yet we wonder why gender determines the method of "correction."

Secondly, can physical pain really teach empathy and understanding? Or does it simply reinforce the idea that violence is acceptable when exercised by those in power?

Lastly, how does this approach align with our goal of creating compassionate, thoughtful citizens? When we respond to bullying with more violence, what message are we sending about conflict resolution?

Once again, we wish we had better news.
