The Gov of this prison has always had a good reputation for being progressive- nice to see some good news for a change.

 

Managing an overcrowded place like that cannot be easy.

Riles me to see little kids in there. So much money spent on Military toys that could be spent on social care. 

 

Always harping on about image and reputation when the real disgrace is staring them in the face

Of course it's 'white'... do you think the new governor is going to have it painted as 'black' while under his rule / control.... the answer is NO!!!

"The prison currently detains 2,132 male inmates, 398 female inmates, 217 foreign male inmates, 13 foreign female inmates" - the Vice Gov then went onto say there was definitely no problem with crime on Phuket, and then also declared the whole of Phuket to be "white."  .   :biggrin:
