Caning is used widely as a legal form of corporal punishment in the city-state of Singapore. It can be subdivided into several contexts, namely domestic/private, school, reform school, military and judicial. Of these, judicial caning, for which Singapore is best known, is the most severe. It is reserved for male criminals aged under 50, for at least 30 different offences under the Criminal Procedure Code. Caning is also a legal form of punishment for delinquent male members of the military (Singapore Armed Forces) and a military equivalent of the rotan is executed in the SAF Detention Barracks, and also in reform schools and as a form of prison disciplinary measure. In a somewhat milder form, caning is used to punish misbehaving male students in many Singaporean schools.
