Sorry but to me they arent truly "victims" ( like the bombing victims etc), they buy drugs willingly, even after being warned.
Sure they may get hooked over time ( like smokers and alcoholics ), but they go in with their eyes wide open.
Arbitrarily executing a courier does nothing, and never has.
All it really does is reduce jail costs.
What we need to do is find out why people buy drugs and remove the market. Cant see that happening based on human history.

If these two had been charged in Australia, they'd be free by now and back out dealing death.

Just like the tobacco and alcohol industries ?????
Im sorry but i dont discriminate between the three, they all can result in death of the user, and alcohol, more than anything else can result in the death of many others.
Also, if Indonesia is deemed so high and morally mighty, as it has signs up everywhere, why didnt corby etc get executed????
Why only a select few, and why now and what is the criteria???
Its obviously not just trafficking drugs that gets you necked.
If Indonesia executed everyone caught with drugs, i could understand it, but leaving it vague means people will take chances and judges can take bribes. It will be really interesting to see how far the allegations re the judges asking for bribes for a "better" result will go.
As per before, i totally disagree with what these people did,
but using arbitrary executions ( and even worse as a political statement ) isnt the answer.
