One thing i know about being an addict, you can only stop if your heart wants to stop! Your friends, families and whoever ask you to stop, also no use… Happy for you brotha!! Im 3years being sober…. No more temptation… 😊😊

The saddest thing about drugs isnt how it destroy people away. The saddest thing about drugs are the families and friends of drug users will always remember the best side of their fallen love ones and how things might turn out if they havent touched drugs in life. Sadly this chance and redemption will never come to those who have passed away in this struggle. That is the most sad thing out of it. The whole world can hate and mock you but for some their love ones have never given up on them at all. Thats the beauty and sad part of life.

True, we spend so much time in our own world, forgetting parents still around...once our parents time is up, heaven calling their name, all we are left with little memories. T_T Proud of this man. We all are not perfect, but this guy path, i hope it'll inspire more out there.

Simon should request every media outlet showing this interview to pull the video down. The interviewee might have said the wrong things to indicate he used to traffic drugs. AGC may use this as evidence to press trafficking charges on him, which carries a death sentence. He was jailed for consumption and possession, not trafficking. Simon should engage a defense lawyer now.

Not all types of drug trafficking carries death sentence. Depends on class of drug and quantity. Might be low class low quantity amount.

Unthinkable the amount of airtime bad influences get nowadays.

@rayt2324 Ай бұрын

Yeah exactly... MSM thinks using a real life example of an ahbeng who somehow found his way into becoming an influencer a good role model for everyone else... Given how SM frenzied kids are nowadays, they'd think they need to do something extreme, then become famous as the road to success... Like come on, this narrative is very overused at this point. Yes good on Simon for being able to make a comeback. But he is just one of the few who made it back on track. Most never do. Who is his example meant for?

Good thing is he reformed but too many funeral business operated by SS in suits often scalp the families in grief very badly second only to loansharks and durian sellers. Saw so many of those tiny mock kerosene lanterns being hung and then wasted a few days later for a funeral one could already spot from the main road. A few days ago two were actually hung one on top of the other like some kind of prank. Wonder why gong Singkies still practise and pay through their noses for items and practices no longer relevant - oh yes they still vote PAP.

When I saw him being interviewed, the first part I looked at were his blackened, heavily, and ghastly tattooed arms. I bet his whole body is inked. My natural response would be to keep a distance from him to keep me safe. His ex-wives did the right thing to leave him. Once a crook, always a crook.
