For the first time ever, six inmates, incarcerated multiple times and at least once at maximum security, agree to reveal their full identities, for the cameras to capture their lives behind bars, as they unfold. Will the regime in jail finally be enough for them to renounce a life of crime? Will this be their final stint in Changi Prison?
Meet Graceson, a gangster who manages to get himself a new tattoo in prison and 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 who gets into trouble for keeping origami in his cell during a cell search.

I am very moved by the inmate’s effort to give himself reward daily till his date of release. If he does the same by setting goals after release, he will succeed. This is a great video, it shows the inside workings of prison and also helps others to understand and accept inmates better.

Well he’s a bit more fortunate and privileged in his knowledge of rewards. He was a fitness instructor and successful - so he has more education and awareness around certain things or he was there in minor drug charges. I think he will like learn his lesson compared to more serious cases of inmates. But i really thought that was a fine way to approach it and i hope other in mate learned from his example when he leaves as peer facilitator.

When I first started working as a corrections officer I was scared to be in the rooms with the inmates (15-33 per large cell) and over time I realized they are just normal people like anyone else, the kind of people you would see in a grocery store or a gas station. Most of them just had a bad time in their life or unfortunate events to place them behind bars. Very few were troubled people that should remain separated from society for years.

The prison facilities has slightly improved, they are still using the same types of blankets,floor mats and slippers🤣. Back in those days,the mugs were coloured, not transparent, the food boxes have changed to smaller ones. The old food boxes were bigger. 🤭 after watching episode 1, i finally know how the meals were prepared 🤣 those days i have always wonder about that. I remember sleeping on the cold floor, even with the mat is was still very cold at night. Thoses days staying in maximum security cell, they had the lights on 24 hours, it was hard to sleep with the lights on all night long, but i managed to get used to it. 👍good that now they have the lights off at night, so the inmates can sleep better😉

18:24 ... For anyone who didn't understand when he said ' to own a car before 30'. Singapore is a small city-state and one of the most expensive countries in the world to own a car. You will first need to have a license to own a car (0r a bike ) referred to as a COE (Certificate of Entitlement ) which by itself costs 50k-80k also it expires after 10 years. To own a car is a luxury indeed. A second-hand car that you typically buy in the US for 10-15k can easily be as much as 100-120k$ in Singapore and on top of that road costs toll fees parking are also 10 times more. Older cars are banned to be imported or owned cars that don't pass emission rules are exported out. So you generally only see newer modern cars on the road. This system is partly to encourage public transport and reduce traffic. It's got the best public transport system you don't need a car, also the fact that it's so small. So if he had a house and also a car before 30 years old dude was a high roller...

This is truly good documentary. A eye opener indeed . After seeing the video you dun want to commit any crimes and end up in that cell . It’s really nightmare. But if we’re to compare with other countries tough prisons Singapore holds a tough prison but they care about changing them and not brutal like other toughest prisons in the world. Looking forward to part 2……

The inmate that missed "outside" food -. I feel for him. Food in Singapore is amazing. At last count, 49 Michelin star restaurants for hawker stalls and higher end restaurants in that tiny island nation should give an idea of how wonderful and varied the local cuisine is.

My nephew is the warden of a max security prison and we have several prisons near us. I am very impressed with your facility and your employees. It may be the cleanest best maintained max security prison on the planet. Well done. I know your staff were wanting to do a good presentation but we (that have many friends and family working in corrections and are very familiar with them) can tell what a great job you are doing.

Just look into the prison system in norway especially halden prison their system works some sill say they treat their inmates to good snd im talking from lo level to murder they use fo have a reoffending rate very similar to Americas which is 60% of American inmates will reoffend in two yrs or less after release where in norway they got those numbers down to 20% their attitude is one day these people can/will be your neighbor so lets give these men/woman the skills/education to be good neighbors etc

Self isolation is the absolute worst part about prison/jail, its legitimate torture. 23 hours alone feels like a week until you're in for a few months and it feels much, much longer than that.

It’s all about culture. In their culture they value honor, respect, loyalty among many other noble values. There’s a reason why a lot of countries in the East do not want to be Westernized like the US. There was a time when morals actually meant something to most Americans, but sadly I’m afraid our society has crushed that image. I really feel as though mandatory military terms should be instated in the US. I’ve watched many boys turn into men during my time in the Army. Brotherhood is also a big part of that, which is contrary to how kids these days socialize individually through a screen. We really took the word freedom too far & for granted.
