A couple of years ago, I read that Prachuap Prison had opened a car wash and that the work was being done by inmates, but I didn't try it until this week. The result was great. It was the most thorough cleaning that my car has ever had. For example, the plastic suction pad that holds my camera in place had left a series of rings on the inside of the windscreen, and I could never remember to clean them. The other car washes that I have been to over the past couple of years did nothing to remove them, but the prisoners did. This thorough cleaning cost 180 baht, which is half the price charged by the car wash at Lotus's. However, given that there are not many car washes in the town, other businesses may not be complaining about the very cheap labour at the prison. They might also be happy to see that young men are able to escape from their cells for a number of hours each day. Next to the car wash is an attractive cafe, a laundry, and a shop selling handicrafts made by prisoners.
