PHUKET: The new B789 million Phuket Provincial Prison being built in Srisoonthorn, Thalang, is expected to be fully completed next month, but prisoners at the long overcrowded prison in Phuket Town will not be transferred to the new facility until at least January.

 

Last November, construction of the new prison was on schedule for completion by May this year, but COVID-19 interfered with the contractor finishing the buildings, then the many days of rain this year caused further delays, Phuket Provincial Prison Commissioner Suchart Silapachai told The Phuket News this week.

 

Even that opening deadline was already delayed after the prison, located on 108 rai in Bangjo, was initially expected to be completed by late last year.

“They will have at least 50cm across by 180-200cm per person guaranteed, likely or more,” Mr Suchart explained.

 

Presumably they will soon get used to sleeping on their sides.

 

' High tech ' prison with 3rd world design.

If you are bad criminal, i think you should suffer about what you have done! In Finland prison is like 5 star hotel! Free meal 3 times/day, own tv/stereo set in room. Clean sheat,clothes just for you etc. 

And in Finland even you murder somebody, you not more than 12 years in prison!

Now biggest drug dealer in history, get out from remand and be vacation is hes Spain house! Waiting court desition about hes sentance! And coz hes first timer he "sit" only half time!

That's nice to know. If Thailand kicks me out I'll fly to Helsinki , throw a brick through a Jewelry shop window , and then wait for the police.

 

Thanks for the heads up.????

It'll be the only accommodation facility in Phuket not moaning about occupancy rates next year!

180cm x 50 cm sounds a bit too cozy for me

People comparing a prison with a 5-star hotel does not know what it is like to be in prison, in Finland or elsewhere.

 

Anyway, being in prison in Finland is probably better than being out of prison in Finland ????
