Do they still publicly flog people and criminalize chewing gum?
Once, there was this kid who
Took a trip to Singapore and brought along his spray paint
And when he finally came back
He had cane marks all over his bottom
He said that it was from when
The warden whacked it soooooo haaaaard

It's where I got the term "Mr. Happy" from many years ago and still use to this day.
Chewing gum is not illegal, the importation and sale is. You can bring in gum from abroad and chew it. What you do with it afterwards is also important.
