I just found an artivcle on swedish wikipedia about execution by firing squad. It states that in China this is a common execution method for economical reason. Apart from the fact that bullets are cheap, it also allows for harvesting the organs and selling them to rich people, both in China and the west... A bit too pragmatic, perhaps?
