CHINA POSTPONED EXECUTION OF 3 FILIPINOS

Beijing, China (CNN) -- China postponed Friday the planned execution of three Filipinos, following a visit to Beijing by Philippine Vice President Jejomar Binay, appealing for clemency.

China has decided to "postpone the execution within the scope of the Chinese law," the two nations said in a joint statement after Binay met with Wang Shengjun, president of CHINA'S Supreme People's Court (SPC) and senior foreign policy officials.

"The Philippine side stated that it fully respects China's law and the verdict of the SPC," the statement continued. "The Philippines and China are determined to work together in the fight against transnational crimes. Including drug trafficking."

Binay told CNN: "We express sincere appreciation to China for the SPC decision."

Ramon Credo, Sally Ordinario-Villanueva and Elizabeth Batain had been convicted of drug trafficking in China, a crime punishable by death.

All three were arrested separately in 2008 and scheduled to be executed early next week.

[bentgrin]

yea right it was prayer that killed them...what a great god you have has never saved one person ever...dead drug smuggler=peace

[916edward]

@bentgrin No he's not a great God.. He's a wonderfully God. Prayer did save them..Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO YOU LAST DAY ON THIS EARTH MY FRIEND ?

[bentgrin]

@916edward CERTAINLY NOTHING FROM >"YOUR"< GOD OR THE CHINESE Stop the propaganda. China has the worlds largest population. The figures for executions is the highest ACCORDINGLY. I SEE YOU HAVE NO PROBLEM OF YOUR COUNTRY EXECUTING TEN'S OF THOUSANDS IN UNJUST WARS THAT CONTINUE TO THIS DAY IN YOUR GOD'S NAME.. YOUR GOD IS A MAFIA BOSS... I KNOW I'M MORE MORAL THAN YOUR GOD WILL EVER BE

[916edward]

@bentgrin Morals,China,propaganda, unjust,country,war,Gods name.That's allot of issue U dropped on the table and some people are paid to deal with them everyday. Like I told @bridzzer to criticizing something you better know what you're talking about or you will look ignorant and 1 of the first things you said was you see I have no problem with with my country at war.You don't know zip about me to make that statement or what God I believe in. So my response back to you is' stop being ignorant

[elbeghast]

@bodyguardik If you knew anything about human physiology then you would know that you are a drug addict;all humans are. Your brain would not function if it weren't for dopamine,serotonin,melatonin,e­tc. You would not eat,you would not sleep,you would not be happy,sad,angry,confused,excit­ed,you would not feel love or hate or anything for that matter. Your brain swims in a pool of drugs. Drugs are a natural part of human existence. We wouldn't exist if it weren't for drugs.

@elbeghast fuck off, narcoman

[sinhielo]

Man from every race, people, nation, and tongue has been killing man since the time of Adam "justified" in some way or another. Not that I agree with the sentence at all, but if I were from China I would remind the rest of the world, especially so called Christian nations to first remove the splinter out of their own eyes. Get concerned about human rights in other nations when you stop justifying killing innocents in other nations with drones, UAVs, etc. with a slogan about war on terror.

SO ??

[elbeghast]

@bodyguardik So,death makes you happy but drugs do not? You are one sick individual.

[elbeghast]

The only thing prayer accomplishes is making the person who prays feel good about themselves. If you want to make a difference,stop praying and start doing.

[neddur1]

cant blame China for executing they have over 2 billion people in their country they dont have enough money to keep 100,000's of people behind bars

[MsJEEBY]

stupid china fuck it.

@skyquake75 That is why all the young Americans are screw up with drugs from Mexico.

They ended up dead from overdose or broke with no money for food and they go to lie and steal money from the store, their friends,co worker and others. There head are all messed up and could not think what they are doing and killed people for no reasons.

China is not like America. They have their own laws and everybody must respect their laws or otherwise not go there in the first place.
