In this first episode, we enter a world behind bars to meet the inmates. We follow Graceson, a gangster who manages to get himself a new tattoo in prison and is duly caned for it; Khai, a professional skateboarder who is just coming to terms with the loss of his career; Rusdi who is counting down to his release in 50 days using packets of snacks; And Boon Keng gets into trouble for keeping origami in his cell during a cell search.

Singapore government and even the judges know that kind of punishment is wrong but they just don't have the guts to suggest for amendment of the law. I believe Singapore will abolish mandatory death penalty but it takes time maybe another 5 years.
@@Kikilancelotu call it that because you are not used to country which has strict laws. You can be happy in one that allows people to do what they want and harm others without consequences but that’s not what Singapore wants.
This prison is so thoughtful and rough in its own sense. It’s giving solitary punishments to the inmates for their crimes but also provides support for them after they leave. Great disciplinary action too. 😮
Right, if they have a prison like this in Africa example in Congo, 70% of Congolese will commit crimes so they will be jailed and dont need to suffer working to have daily food to eat lol. Imagine you have free food everyday and there are guards that looking after you when you are sleeping😊😊😊
@@katrinawilson1901yes they do they get 2 blankets. And the best over there in Asia are very different from beds in Europe or America. Their usually just mats on the ground or their a style of Asian hard beds. I’m serious look it up.
Those combined toilet - shower bases, made out of hygienic, easily cleanable stainless steel, seem very practical to me. They save space, and money too undoubtedly, and their combined function forces the inmate to keep the whole thing clean. The only possible disadvantage I can see for the inmate is that in western prisons where they have actual stainless steel toilets of the type one could sit on (although they don't come equipped with a separate movable seat) inmates are known to use them to wash clothes in. As absurd as that may sound to anyone who lives a free life and thus may be used to more comfort, they will keep the toilet immaculately clean as well, especially on its inside, to be able to use it for such a double functionality.
Sometimes watching such films may have no particular purpose or reason or a need,but waking up at a place called home,having some people to call as family and have a future is a blessing no words or religion can express,noone never ever should match these footsteps or walk in one like these whatever situation be,,we should be thankful for everything especially a tasty warm.meal made with ❤️
Why should law abiding citizens be thankful? If you keep within the law, then, you can enjoy the many priviledges that a freedom life offers. If, on the other hand you choose to break the law then you deserve to lose all priviledges. My take is, that, all prisoners are banged up by choice! Of course the liberal lefties amongst us will dispute that, bur, who cares?
This one is more heavy for me than madagascar. Singapore prosper and rich country,but inmates live like a fuxking animals.Knowing singapore crime policies,much of these inmates,by the western standarts,doesint deserve to go to jail. Singapore can flex with riches and Leds on the skyscrapers,but everybody know that is horrible country to live average civilian life.
Although they are inmates but They're still human being. Everyone treat with respect even Inmates. They also want to be a good person is just that influence by bad surrounding.

Yesterday I watched a documentary about a prison in Tijuana, Mexico. That was a horrible place. I would choose this Singapore prison anytime over that one.
Sleeping and sitting all day on a concrete floor with paper thin mat… even american prisoners don’t know what that’s like. That alone would do me in quick like. Wtf
@JdDelay5150 will you do a review of this prison documentary please? I think it’s cool how they have 4 or so variations of the meals. Including vegetarian. And while the amount is still really small the food actually looks kinda good
@@fernandohenriquepereiracha9996 A straw mat is a sufficient bed. To us this is tough love. Don’t like it, don’t do the crime. No one died from sleeping on a hard straw mat.
Why did your content same as CNA Insider ? I just watch the full documentary of the prison from that channel and this video has the exact same footage as the one from CNA Insider ??
Wow no beds? Here in england you got beds Telly's, digi box, Xbox sound system if u got the money. If england was like this I would never ov went to jail.
Looks like a cleaner and more orderly prison than in Australia. The inmates seem HAPPY! This is great because all of these inmates will eventually be someone's neighbour. They have done wrong and are paying with their freedom. No need to dehumanise them, rehabilitate instead. Great example of how prisons around the world should operate.
story goes they are instructed to do so by th eprison it self to give off a good picture of how they treat them come on you know how it goes in political corrupt country's..
being incarcerated is definitely not good but seeing the condition of their cell, it somehow alleviates the feeling of distress. Prison in the PHilippines is a hell.
The U.S. is nothing to think it's great when it comes to people in prison. But good God are they farming their people. 3 years for consuming a drug. That's unbelievable . No wonder they have so many people in prison over there
They also waste healthcare resources which can be used for others who genuinely fell sick. Also people abusing drugs clearly can be dangerous since the prisoner literally said he was high and decided to enter interesting places, and trespassed the president residence
its called punishment..... the aim is to make them learn not to commit crime again.... unlike western country where theres repeat offenders who aint scared of prison because its too luxury.
They get in trouble with law so don't expect to get treated like they were in hotel. Maybe look at other prison documentaries. And tell me again if this is consider inhuman
compared to a Russian prison, they live in paradise. In Russia, the law does not work even for free people, and prisoners are not people at all for them
Inmates here are enjoying life in prison with everything taken care n fully provided unlike other countries where inmates basic needs are not met and life is always at high risk so hope these inmates really learn and repent from their mistakes after their release
There's a reason Singapore has one of the lowest crime rates in the world. Prison in America is a joke. Believe it or not, i have done time in many of the "worst" maximum security prisons in America-state AND federal (Attica AND San Quentin; over half of all max sec fed USPs, coast-to-coast)-and I'm here to tell you that, compared to this, they're all like a summer camp. We need to seriously toughen the punishment for crimes in America.
No beds to bench or cell mates to lift, these guys only have the wall and sit ups and push ups - can't even use the rec room bench for incline - very strict here!

I saw this about 6 months ago. Wish stuff wouldn't be reposted without at least saying it had been posted before. STill good though.

This is 1 of the better prison compare to those in other countries. At least no pest running around and food that u cannot even eat.
Not one chain or handcuff in sight. Lots of discipline.
they eat better than american school kids.... that tells you something
It tells you that they eat better than American school students
American school kids wouldn’t eat that even if you gave it to them free. They want their nuggets and pizza.
American school students don't sleep on the floor
See the chain on the knives? I was in a county jail once in a rural county and the knives were attached to the counter with a piece of twine.

As comparing to Madagascar
The floor food door is a good idea; it would prevent the American Prison Cocktail!

"Music has been shown to improve inmates' mental health."
You know what else might help? A mattress.
