Jolovan Wham

Jolovan Wham Kwok Han (Chinese: 范国瀚; pinyin: Fàn Guóhàn; born 1980) is a Singaporean activist.

[4] The International Federation for Human Rights has stated that he has been the target of judicial harassment,[5] while Amnesty International have stated that "Singapore authorities have repeatedly sought to make an example of his activism to deter Singaporeans who might dare criticize the government.

"[6] In March 2019, Singaporean authorities launched an investigation for illegal public assembly after Wham had posted a photo on social media of himself holding a sign calling for charges against the editors of The Online Citizen to be dropped.

[9] In May 2020, Wham posted a letter of apology to Minister of Manpower Josephine Teo after she threatened to sue him over accusations of corruption.

[11] When a 68-year-old Singaporean named Abdul Kahar Othman was sentenced to death and hanged at Changi Prison on 30 March 2022 for drug trafficking, Jolovan Wham organised and spoke at a 400-men protest at Hong Lim Park to show opposition to the Singapore government's use of the death penalty on 3 April 2022, and urged the government to abolish capital punishment, especially when another drug trafficker and Malaysian Nagaenthran K. Dharmalingam was at risk of imminent execution due to him losing his final appeal five days before.
