I certainly without a doubt..agree 👍

But is it good for rehabilitation? It seems like they get a lonely and boring existence for years until they are released. Sounds like a recipe for repeat offenders.

Encore pire avec une sclérose

Go to hotel if you want it

@@AlfariziZakaria I have my own opinion just like you do and it's wrong to make anyone sleep on a floor in a prison there is so many germs and people walk on those floors after walking outside probably stepping on dog crap , spit, and I can only imagine what else . If you think it's okay how people are treated in that jail then that is your opinion.

It's terribly cruel.

go to american prison and get turned into bubas wife, you can rest your head on his hairy chest

Plenty of Asians sleep on floor and it’s actually better for your back.

Remember though that the prison authority, governers and Singapore government will have control over all of the access to the documentary makers and almost certainly the final edit.

Facts!!!

I have also noticed how it's still an effective rehabilitation hotel as opposed to African prisons.. if it wasn't about business. If America want to cut down on crime they should gave treaties with African States and send their prisoners ther. Sureties will give a testimony.kk

@@cdechirume2979 WTF are you talking about?

Lies again? Phone Stalker Jail Prison

why are tough laws weird ?

you can walk around Singapore all hours and feel completely safe nothing weird about Singapore

Tough on drugs and cleanliness of public space, lenient when it comes to murder -_-

Not as wierd as USA 500 years sentences ffs

You can check out the entire series in the CNA's official channel (The original creators) for free.

My ex husband sent me a pic as he got off the plane in Iraq. It was spraypainted on a crude brick wall said "Marijuana possession punishable by death." 😮 As I blaze homegrown in my garden. 😢

As it should be!

Maybe the answer isn't prison so much as rehabilitation

I saw that and was shocked.

i'd rather be here than american prisons. its uncomfortable but its private and safe. I don't want to be room mates with someone who might be a violent or sexual predator.

I'd rather sleep on a concrete floor than be in an American prison

Nah he said 4 pieces of bread and the mug of tea of coffee

7:54 "So, our breakfast usually consist of half a piece of bread. So, they will pass it through our food latch."

4 pieces... that's nothing

I was just about to comment about that. He looked so happy to receive his breakfast and coffee. Something so simple that we take for granted daily.

This whole documentary is propaganda. Look how clean the cells and inmates are, how much food they get and a choice for dietary requirements. Come on 🫤

Stop being such a drama queen! The inmates are given a nice straw mat to sleep on.

Just don’t do crime

It’s because drugs are passed at these times.

@cjuuu443 - so naive

crime means you forfeit such rights..

Not as private as being stabbed with a shank.

i am not sure your privacy is a priority if u are in jail ....jail means u have done something. wrong so u forfeit privileges

cruel may be but they get what they are in for. Tough lessons for them to grow

Makes me want to be in there

would you rather have 4 man cell? and take turns watching each other take a dump and listen to each other cry or beat their meat? also you can't really sleep well while another CRIMINAL is the room how safe would you ever feeel. any prisoner would prefer this austere but private and SAFE prison.

and safe! the biggest worry for me would be other inmates

Safety for inmates.

Try the US Prisons and jails

Me too , when seeing his hook and origami taken away😢

Yeah probably cause they know they would have to go to this place, makes American prisons look amazing for the most part

@devonspain620 whatever works and they kill their inmates just like Americans !!!

What do you eat? Soil?

Not to judge because that could be me in the cell. But I usually think about this before I commit a crime.

@@Music-yq8qc I don’t know about Singapore but in America, anyone can end up in jail. All someone has to do is accuse you of something & it’s bye, bye for you. We have the most incarcerated individuals in the world. It’s naive to think everyone is guilty just because they’ve been arrested. It’s also cruel to think just because someone did commit a crime they should have to live in squalor. Being removed from society is torture enough.

@@ssmfetti yes, anyone can end up in jail, but jail is short term until you are either bonded out or awaiting your trial. Once you are convicted, you go to prison. If you are convicted, that means you are found guilty and have to pay your dues. Sometimes we get it wrong but the majority of the time we don’t. These prisons are controlled by the guards verses in America, the prisoners control the prisons. Everyone is in a gang and drugs are passed around freely. Assaults happen every day. US should take a lesson here.

@@Jazzykatt23 In the US, most cases don’t even go to trial. Inmates have also been known to spend up to 10 years waiting in jails. Kalief Browder spent 3 years just waiting to go to court & committed suicide due to the whole ordeal. The inmates are pressured into taking plea deals as having no funds for lawyer fees. Public defenders are known to sell out their clients so going to trial with one is futile. It doesn’t really matter if you’re innocent, you can still end up convicted.. Look up Brian Banks. Some are even sentenced to death like 14 year old George Stinney Jr. Sometime the crooked cops set up & plant things on people, eg;Meek Mill. There are countless other examples need not mentioned. The majority of the prisoners being black males, due to systemic racism.. Not because “sometimes we get it wrong;majority of the time we don’t.” The US prison system is overtly corrupt. Also, the prisoners in this video are also in gangs, they also smuggle contraband.. One was even participating in tattooing. Assaults also happen frequently in this jail, you just weren’t listening. They didn’t show any for privacy reasons as well as broadcast restrictions, plus UKposts policy. But they did speak on them. You wanting US prisoners to suffer even more than they already do shows how callous your heart is.

Brian Banks, again, you are talking about 1% of the prison population in America. 99% of prisoners in American prisons are guilty.

So turn them on

You don't understand Singlish lah? 😂

😂😂

@@yukiefromoz2573omg so funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂

i cant shave up like that. it hurts lol!

they really get mats to sleep on over there?

I understand having a celly can bring issues. But this is like being in the whole your entire sentence... Easily bringing mental health issues .. having a celly keeps u sane and connected. Thats why seg is a punishment . This is cruelty

They're treated better than our oaps in some care homes ! They don't fear going to prison coz it's a holiday cape with their mates. Their human rights mean more than the victims.

@@hazelparr8461 well said Hazel, it’s like Butlins chalets, can ya believe they’ve let them two evil sods out, mick philpot he’s a psychopath and dangerous but we will make sure he gets help on the outside, it’s sickening. Thank you for your comment Hazel good night and best regards from Yorkshire.

I read a bit the Mick Philpott case. He is a psychopath and honestly should be placed in a mental institution for life because normal rehabilitation will not be effective. Now, with that said, it doesn’t mean he should be treated with cruelty. Reasons for this: A psychopath can never be shamed into submission. It makes those treating him with cruelty just as guilty. What people need to understand about incarceration is that the punishment is taking away a person’s freedom. That’s it. Nothing else. It’s not the guards job to punish them further. Having things to keep a prisoner occupied does a couple things. It keeps them placated so they do not have as much violence. It keeps the guards safer and the cost for health services down from inmate violence. It also keeps the inmates from going mental. You don’t want a person becoming worse when they get out. These people do have to integrate back into society and will live in our communities, making them worse leads to more harm in society. You have got to start thinking in terms of what is best for society as a whole.

@@jdmccoy1999 morning from a rainy Yorkshire, he doesn’t see wrong or have any empathy, he’s a narcissist who’s always right a typical psychopath, totally agree that he needs to go into a mental hospital, it’s sad that we don’t have any good funding for our NHS. The revolving door of prison guards coming and then leaving because they don’t get paid enough, the constant abuse they face and then dealing with very sick mentally unstable inmates is a recipe for their own mental health to be challenged, we don’t care enough for the people who sign up to protect us, our military, our police, our medics and firefighters don’t get any support, especially for our military personnel, we just don’t give them a softer landing from years of service and the things they will have dealt with when in wars, so many with PTSD. I come from a family of police officers, we had ten serving and all did 25 to just over 30 years between them, I was born in a police house when there used to be a police officer in the local area, we knew the community and they knew where to come when they needed help, there wasn’t crime like it is now, my family served from the 1950’s to 2010 and were old school and when my daughter was going to join they advised her not to because it’s just not the same. I have 3 wonderful girls, my daughter who wanted to join the police is the one in my user photo, and I’m glad that she changed her mind because I fear for this country, it’s so dangerous now, I feel that there’s so many morals being lost, so many being forgotten when they need help, the House of Lords are banning charities who give tents to the homeless, people committing crimes because of their addictions and the majority begin their addictions legally when given pain medication from the Drs, and then that goes all the way back to our prisons and the justice system. Thank you for your comment it’s good to connect to someone else’s perspective, it’s educational and it’s vital to listen to others so I appreciate your time and understanding. Have a good day hope you don’t get headache after reading my comment, well it’s like a novel there’s that much.😜 The very best of regards to you and yours from a very damp rainy South Yorkshire.

Not everyone in prison is guilty in the UK as there are remand prisoners. Self harm is a serious issue in prison, without TVs it was a lot worse. The loss of liberty is the punishment. Prison is no 5* hotel

If you look up the recidivism rates of Finnish inmates compared to places where inmates aren't treated well, you might change your mind. If your goal is to protect society, you treat your prisoners well and prepare them for a life outside of crime. If you want to ensure they stay criminals, treat them as such. I know which society I'd rather be living in.

Singapore has about 20% recidivism rate, Finland has well over 30%. You are completely wrong@@mascot4950

Barely any calories in there.. 4 slices of bread for breakfast 🤣

You think that being free. Not the same in there where time stops.

@pennyp7382 time stops for no man

@@juliopadilla7346 Time doesn't exist. It's a social construct.

This will stop a lot of gang problems in the prisons too

😂

@@docs2023 The prison staff in this country are so understanding . They have no problems with letting you phone your wife after a few games of pool with your chums or after a hard slog down the gym . And then after a luvvy duvvy phonecall you can get some weed from someone off the landing and return back to your room to enjoy a joint in peace . Lie back on your puffed up Argos pillows and enjoy a game of fifa on your X box or a newly released film . Happy days . 🎈

@@simplymarvelous7255 That was 2 inmates. 3 others got 21 strokes with a cane! Eeek!

I don't want to see a person every day, let alone talk to one. Honestly having friends means having weaknesses attached to you, leaching off you. I hate time with a meth head cellmate. Give me a homeless old person any day.

Um you do realize they sleep on concrete floors right?

You are welcomed to spend some time there if you wish.

I'm a guard, and I give greetings to inmates.

A hobby in Germany is complaining .I have lived here years as a teacher and still it makes me laugh at them .

Which is the right thing to do. Every single human needs to be treated with a minimum of respect or we are not better than the criminal themself.

This is human rights abuse nonetheless in my view
