there was a lad in Singapore who briefly posted here about the party scene (he left soon afterwards but as internet is not censored but heavily watched I don’t blame him).
the truth is you can get all the ketamine, mephedrone etc you want there, and prices are the same as in Europe! SG was in fact one of the last countries in the World to make mephedrone illegal, months after Europe had done so. Certainly it is dangerous to get caught for trafficking and there is the death penalty, but both Singapore and Malaysia have raised the “personal use” amounts in recent years.
Otherwise they would end up hanging half their middle class kids, which would be stupid especially in Singapore where the birth rate has been declining for some years.
I also have comic book my mum brought back from 2006 and it was making fun about how the kids were all doing pills, and my own cousins said there were loads.
I think though that Singapore (and Malaysian) clubbers/party heads are very careful not to draw attention to themselves – for instance when the club shuts they go back quietly so as not to draw attention to themselves (not like Britsh people where they shot in the street etc), and also they are careful not to miss work or education too often and attract the attention of their parents (which in a Asian family is worse than being busted by the Police or other authorities!)
in fact it seems that you are unlucky enough to get busted for posession as part of the caution/rehab you have to sit in police station with your parents and drugs counsellor (even if you are well over age 18) and apologise to the family for the shame you bring on them!
