Breakfast Time Inside Maximum Security Prison | Singapore | Free Doc Bites

For context, Singapore imposes the death penalty for drug posession above a certain quantity. His 3-year sentence seems harsh by the standard of other countries, but it’s a mere slap on the wrist compared to hanging. Don’t do drugs in Singapore.

To everyone saying Singapore is too strict and too harsh, think about it this way: Imagine a country with such a low crime rate that you feel safe sending your children to school alone on public transport every day. Where you can walk around alone at night and be perfectly fine. Where the ground is clean and the air is clean. Imagine never running into drug addicts getting high on the side of the road, never needing to worry about accidentally walking into the wrong alley and getting mugged. A country where school shootings do not exist, where gun violence does not exist. That is what Singapore is like, sure the laws can be strict and it isn't perfect, but I never lived in fear. I lived in Singapore for 18 years and am currently studying in the US for university.

And you can get out whenever 😅

[@shellman5844]

I think they get a couple of blankets, one to lay on and another to fold over as a makeshift pillow. Don’t believe there is any air con or even a fan in cells and Singapore has a hot humid tropical climate.

[@dragonpoot57]

damn, this cells is bigger than my rent room

[@jusng988]

You want 😂?

[@Noa......]

Be careful what you wish for. A bigger room huh.😅

Singapore is tough on crime. Even littering is punished harshly.

3 years for drug consumption is crazy, people who do drugs have a problem putting them behind bars doesnt help them it just removes the problem for a certain amount of time. Most drug users still use it after getting released, they need a reformation program to solve the problem permanently

[@4cornershike51]

I would think it would be a solution. 3 years of this situation. After that amount of time that has passed, they are clean. I bet they think "Yeah I'm not doing another 3 years of that to get high for one night."

[@4cornershike51]

I'm not saying 3 years of that is right, just saying I bet they don't have a lot of repeat offenders.

[@BateTheThird]

Not that I've really done any research but I would think after their sentence they have to go through some sort of rehab program

[@shinpai_uwu]

Singapore is such a tiny country but with a crazily rich government and a well payed highly efficient management system, and has zero tolerance toward drugs. If you can still mange to get yourself some drug under such circumstances, you are very sussy. Your crime probably also includes Illegal smuggling of contraband at least.

[@brooks274]

Some people get less. I knew a guy who only got one year for an oz of weed, some speed and acid. Make no mistake, every drug is in Singapore, they are just sneaky about it, and its expensive. 😅

My sister got a tattoo while we were taking a holiday there. I believe she said her tattooist served a year in prison just to avoid compulsory military service

Guy sitting 3 years for being high... well this is not correction system, this is disturbing system

and thats my i love my country!

[@rikkenielsen8678]

@vstm3950 Singapore do not really comply with international law and human rights! Chewing gum is forbidden by law! Chewing gum....!!😶

[@Wing_0.iogamer]

@@rikkenielsen8678 chewing gum was forbidden after people stuck chewed gum on lift buttons and train/bus doors, causing a lot of trouble especially when it lodges into the mechanisms.

[@Wing_0.iogamer]

also, the 3 years is not just being high, its probably the amount of drugs they were in possession of at the time

Three years for drug consumption in a place that provides your no commissary and full 48 hour lockdowns weekly? Who exactly is lucky here.

theres no bed, worse than US

[@butterydawg5135]

@@smonyboy its common for most people to sleep on the ground in singapore, i do it and its alright. its hard to adjust to but it helps make my posture more straight, and sometimes when im sick or hurt i use blankets as cushions. different countries have cultures you might find weird!!

I was talking to an Australian lady who lived in Singapore. She was more than willing to forego certain political rights because it was a very safe place. In Australia, she had to have male friends accompany her to her car outside a restaurant because of the presence of unruly males outside. In Singapore, at least in this prison, the guards run the prison, unlike in many Western countries where it is the prisoners. Obviously, if you want little crime, Singapore is a great example of how to achieve it.

I went to Singapore and it felt like I was in the future. Zero homeless, no trash on the streets or crazy people screaming and no fear of any crime whatsoever. This is why. They don't mess around. Too bad in the US they aren't more strict.

[@babyp1nk]

tell that to the federal government then
