The Solution to Violent Protests
Singapore says they are ready to cane World Bank/IMF protestors who commit violent crimes during the annual meetings to be held there. (you can find a little more information here)
There is no mention of protestors from any particular nation, but I think it is clear who they have in mind.
I don’t know about you, but I’d pay good money to see a real country with real laws lay down the spank on Korean protestors who think living in a democracy means having the right to attack police and destroy property every time something doesn’t go your way. It’s unbelievable what protestors here do to Korean riot police (mostly just kids in their early 20’s doing their mandatory military service, by the way) and it’s incomprehensible why the Korean government lets them get away with it time after time.
