Up to 18,000 ‘illegal immigrants’ are reported to have been caned in Malaysian prisons within the last two years, and another 16,900 are awaiting this punishment
– Amnesty International Report “Malaysia: Human rights at risk in mass deportation of undocumented migrants”
– 2 December 2004
 
 
 
 
"With threats to flog an estimated half a million illegal migrants thought to be hiding in Malaysia, prison officers could be in for a major windfall.
 
Foreigners caught and convicted of immigration offences can be whipped up to six times.
 
Previously, officers only received only three ringgit ($0.80) for each blow they struck using a rotan, a heavy bamboo rod.
But now they will get 10 ringgit ($2.60). " - BBC News Online, London, 23 March 2005  "Malaysia's floggers get pay rise"
 
 
Now - see the attached picture of the effect of caning.
 
Do visit also the "MALAYSIA & HUMAN RIGHTS" site  http://www.geocities.com/easytocall/
- and look under the section "Abolish Death Penalty & Torture" - for pictures of how caning is done in Malaysia.
 
THE TIME HAS COME FOR US TO
 
ABOLISH ALL FORMS OF CORPORAL PUNISHMENT
&
THE DEATH PENALTY.
