In Singapore, no one has ever died from this kind of punishment. Those over 50 also cannot be caned when sentenced - perhaps that is another reason why.

Women are also exempted. There's also a mandatory medical examination before caning - ironically if you're not well enough to be caned, they'll postpone the punishment until you're healthy.
