Yong Vui Kong: Third letter from death row - my changed heart
Sabahan Yong Vui Kong, 21, is on death row in Singapore for
drug trafficking. Malaysiakini is publishing Yong's final letters to Yetian, a
member of the Save Vui Kong Campaign, in the next few weeks as he faces death.
May 5, 11 9:53am
Yetian, I would like to tell you a story.
I have been worrying about someone for quite a long time. This person has a good nature. But when he was growing up he was led astray. He did not respect his parents and followed others to get involved with drugs. He was petty, bad-tempered, proud, vulgar and self-centred. He was very selfish.
But this person has now changed all his bad habits, all his bad acts. He is sincere about changing.
