Supportive of death penalty
Jackie Chan also expressed his support for drug penalty for drug traffickers because they are like villains in his movies who can hurt and destroy thousands of lives with their illegal trade.
He said that when people are hurting thousands of young people and children, they can also be considered useless so they deserve the right punishment.
In Singapore, drug traffickers can face the punishment of death penalty or caning. Drug users and abusers on the other hand, can be jailed for up to 10 years.
Drug trade in Southeast Asia has become a lucrative business for illegal drug traffickers and narcotics trade as the region reportedly trade an estimated $16.3 billion of illegal drugs last year.
Over in China, the government has noted a 53 percent rise in drug investigations in the capital city of Beijing in the first half of last year which translates to about 1,800 cases.
Of these cases, more than 8,400 suspects have been apprehended and detained during the same period, which is an increase of 79 percent from the same period in 2013.
The figures prompted the Chinese government to intensify its anti-drugs campaign not only in the capital city but also in other cities and states in China.
