Five years living abroad for some would be a dream but how much of a dream would five years be when you work an 8 hour day 5 days a week for no or little pay, with no family or friends around. Also Your days off wandering around a picturesque shanty town or a back of the beyond village in an alien environment, does this sound great to you? This is a working punishment and hardly the stuff of dreams and it makes far more sense than just chucking people into jail to rot.

Doesn't intimidate me, no. My mom's family come from Belize (not too far from Peru), they live in a
shanty town, I have actually considered living there myself.
Spending years in prison would intimidate me far more. Even a British prison would make me sh1t myself.
If I were to consider smuggling drugs and I knew my punishment would be community service abroad then I'd be far less worried about being caught and more likely to go for it.
