Now 2 Iranians had their sentences commuted to life, they smuggled 40 kg. of methamphetamine into Indonesia, , so all drug related felons get death but yet these 2 are commuted, this doesn't make sense, how does your justice system work again? Separate laws for separate cases? Or did Iran offer better bribes than Australia?

These two need to be spared for they have done much more good for Indonesia than harm. Aside from the fact that they were smuggling drugs out of Indonesia. I will never again set foot in that country if these executions go ahead. Neither will all of my friends and family. Not a good argument to say it's too costly to keep them in jail, no more costly than it is for all countries who keep Indonesians in their prison systems whether on death row or otherwise. Killing a few drug smugglers will not solve the problem, educate your children properly and they will resist drugs, it's on their parents and educators.

"Indonesia is now in such a difficult position. On the one hand, they are still working so hard to rescue its own people facing execution but on the other hand they have resumed executions at home."

The application of the death penalty at home will only make the government lose its moral legitimacy to urge other countries to free Indonesian nationals who are on death row.”McMahon criticised the “brutal” execution and said it “illustrates the difficulty of Indonesia’s position in trying so hard to save its own citizens abroad while being ready to execute at home”.

Laws can be changed, people can change, dead people cannot be brought back even if you're sorry you had them killed, death is permanent, forever, killing a handful of drug dealers will not solve drug problems, only by education the young ones properly and having them take a stance against drugs will solve these problems, if dealers have no customers, they'll find something else to do! Have Mercy! Leave the life and death decisions up to God, as it was meant to be!

VIVAnews - Five Indonesian maids have been sentenced to death by decapitaton by a Saudi court. The Indonesian government looks for forgiveness from both families of the victims as well as the Saudi King. Does Mr. Widodo figure he should get mercy for his citizens and ignore all pleas for clemency from other countries? It doesn't work both ways, you kill all foreigners their countries will kill yours! But don't think twice, it's allright! Or is it???

If these people are executed I feel sorry for the 229 Indonesians on death row in other countries as Mr. Widodo's pleas for mercy will fall on deaf ears!

I do realize drugs ruin lives there's absolutely no doubt about it, however we must also realize that if we raise our children in a manner to make them realize that and become strong people who are able to say no to drugs, crime and all other bad influences they will encounter in their life times then there would be no drug smugglers, no customers, no dealers, smugglers.... I could never travel to Indonesia now, I would be too worried about being wrongfully accused of anything or maybe someone planting drugs in my belongings, these are things that could happen. I would say life in prison, as long as they are willing to be productive and have their income from whatever they do given to help those who were affected by drugs and to make their prison conditions better.
