I believe most of the points would point out that the system of punishment is necessary as it acts as a form of deterrent. However, I believe that the system of punishment also sets the tone for certain policies. one example would be the Misuse of Drug Act.
It shows how the Singapore government is committed to eradicating the use of drugs in Singapore.

However, even with punishment in place, it does not completely prevent the crime from happening (Tanzir, 2022). A comparative study on the effectiveness of death penalty among Canada, Bangladesh and Sudan. The study concludes that even with Death Penalty in place, it does not prevent the crime from happening (Tanzir, 2022).

Punishment, whereas painful, enables an individual to make correct decisions to avoid falling into the same trap in the future. In general, punishment shapes an offender's character.

In general, a punishment system serves as a form of deterrence, retribution or incapacitation in response to an act that is deemed as wrongful by a society. In this case, a wrongful act is something that threatens the shared values, morals and norms of a society. With this system, it hopes to deter people from committing crimes and provide 'justice' to the victims of it.

However, such punishment system tend to harm marginalised and minorities in the society who may not have equal access to resources as compared to other members in the society. This could possibly lead to them resorting to acts that contravene societal norms. With incarceration as a common practice in a punishment system, such practice would further entrenched the inequalities that they face in society as they are not provided with the proper agency to allow them to be self-sufficient without resorting to crime.

I believe a system of punishment is necessary to act as a deterrent for criminal behaviour.

It can also act as a system of guidance for the people in that country by informing them of the tolerable limits before a punishment is issued.

A system of punishment enforces law and order and uploads peoples' belief in the judiciary system. The system of punishment can also act as a deterrance for the perpetrator from performing the intended offence fearing the punishment he might receive.

The system of punishment is also intended at giving the appropriate punishment for the prosecuted offence. The degree of the punishment depends on the seriousness of the offence committed. This system is necessary to maintain law and order in any country.

A system of punishment is important for law and order. Ensure punishment meted out is fair and consistent. Also serves as a deterrence to crime as perpetrators are made known in advance what punishment he would expect if he commits crime.

A system of punishment is necessary to guide the amount of punishment to be appropriately awarded to the criminal under the law for the country, based on their government and society's definition of a stable society's morale values and objectives. The main idea is to deter crimes and uphold morale values to maintain peace between humans in all their human activities and have a system that the citizens adhere respectfully.

Firstly, there is consequentialism. Punishment is meant to accomplish some good. You might achieve that by deterring others from committing crimes; you might achieve that by reforming your behavior, and you might achieve that by other means as well. In spite of this, we should recognize that punishments are intended to achieve some sort of benefit.

Retributivism is the second theory. It is morally justifiable to punish someone who violates the law.

Perhaps it will lead to some good consequences as well, but whether that occurs is not really important; what is important is that you are entitled to suffer.

Family, education and general societal values and principles are all responsible for moral education, which leads to punishment.

It is important that punishment promotes "moral strength" within society and instils "moral action" rather than only being used to eliminate crime.

Punishment is a necessary part of maintaining law and order. It can act as a deterrence for people who intended to commit crimes and provide a form of reinstitution or rehabilitation for those who have already committed crimes. Punishment also prevents crime from being normalised and sends a strong message to a potential criminal.

As a result of punishing those who have broken the law, a message will be sent that such conduct will not be tolerated in the future.

Punishment can be a form of deterrence and also a form of rehabilitation to people who either have the thought of committing a mistake or already have committed a mistake.

Punishment is necessary to maintain discipline in a society. I would imagine that a society without any system of punishment would be chaotic, for example, "THE PURGE" movie. Meting out punishment for violating any of the rules will bring the message across that such violations of the rules will not be tolerated and is dealt with in accordance to the laws.
