5:00 the way the prison guard was greeted is super interesting. Every Taiwanese man learns it in basic training in the army, the prison system almost resorts back to what these men learned during their mandatory military training.

She keeps insisting on cooking me dishes with meat, to which I really appreciate the gesture, but I've told her so many times I'm happy to eat veg. She really likes my cooking, but wants to cook for me. She doesn't like when I cook for her because I clean while I cook, so there's nothing for her to do other than eat.

Ah, not sure about this. Most prisons in Taiwan are very overcrowded (just look at how many people in one cell in the last scene), and many don't even have bed: you have to sleep on harden wood floor for years with temp at 30C (about 90F) every night.
America is the only developed country that uses prison as punishment; every other country uses it as rehabilitation, as place to better yourself and prepare you to be a good citizen. There's a reason why the US leads the world in incarcerated citizens; it's BIG business, most prisons are now privatized and for profit.
@@LastBastion there aren't that many "developed" countries in the world. Some are in the "developing" stage while most will stay 3rd world for a long while.
@@mksteele99bro , US should do that, otherwise, you know, US got so many immigrants from every parts of the world, if they use rehab, I bet every prison will stuck with overpopulation
Damn, having food outside regularly is such a good thing the prisons allow, in Vietnam, we're only allowed to bring food monthly and only some specific type of food for our family member, and the food they allowed are not that great too
outside food is nuts. just mix the drugs into the food. not the pills just make a powder or liquid and mix into rice. prisoner will be able to dose it themself over time.
@@simplerelaxation9743 yes I do, in USA you don't get to just have as much as you want for starters. And in USA nothing is fresh like that, all frozen processed garbage. But please enlighten me

For a country with an economy smaller than most, they have a seriously humane jail system. Don’t let your government tell you that they don’t have enough money or capacity to treat people decently.
i hear ppl saying us prisons are worse, which they are. difference is in these countries u get lengthy sentences for simple crimes where as in the us u have a chance of getting out
Taiwanese prison grounds look a lot nicer than actual taiwan. No one is driving scooters around where you walk, no open sewers, and the buildings are wired internally.
super humane prison, everyone is accommodated based on merit. Looks super chill overall, but i do wonder how guards maintain the inmates being so well disciplined and behaved...
We have a very low crime rate compare to most country, according to some reports probably the top 3 lowest crime rate around the world. 70% of the inmate in jail are drug-related. But there is another reason behind the low crime rate, most common crimes are organized white-collar intelligent crimes which is highly professional not only very difficult to catch but also hard to prosecute. Other than that, Taiwan is a pretty safe place to be, just dont easily trust anything you see on the internet or text or you might get scammed.
in asian prison mostly yes u can smoke if u got someone pay for it. ive been in that taiwan prison, doesnt bad, the food is good, more like men camp and rehabilitation. and now i am a better man, with good job, spent 6 yrs
Allowing outside food EVERYDAY is just ? I mean, like first of all, my first thought is the security risk. It's so easy to smuggle things inside. Second of all, it's clearly an area of corruption. Lastly, they're in prison for punishment. As much as you'd like to treat them more humanely, it looks like a maximum prison for grave crimes. Plenty of ways to treat them more humanely that doesn't involve that degree of a security risk + corruption.

it's super humanistic for them to allow outside food in everyday.
not very humanistic to the people who lost their lives to criminals.

That prison food is better than what my ex makes.
Lmao 😂😂
Because in prison they want you to be healthy, the last thing they want is you got sick and even died in prison.
Your ex on other hand.......
Is she an ex cause she didn’t cook very well?
😂😂😂😂

Head guard has a scar across his left cheek, that's badass.
He prolly was a police officer before being nicked in his cheek and transferred to the corrections department.
I taught in a Taiwanese high school and elementary school for two years. The schools look exactly the same as the prisons.

Not better, easier

That prison-issued food looked really good to me!
Looks better than school meal in North America
That is better than country club, outside everyday? That was great risk and extra work for guards. Those foods didn't look bad to me.
considering that manual labor may not be a thing for the prisoners, the food should do just fine.
2:35 outside food? Whaaat? 😂😂
It's more like boarding school than prison lol. They get their own rooms as well
Pot brownies!
Lol you could just bake the drugs in to the food and they would have no idea. Cannabis-infused spaghetti!
That prison is like a home . Too good
this looks more like a dorm than a prison lmao
No that would be Halden prison in Norway
1:52 "they search it thoroughly"
LOL
Lmao what an unhinged response when dealing with food
like that one scene from the grand budapest hotel
Damn they are eating better than I am 😢
better than any American school lunch
outside food is nuts. just mix the drugs into the food. not the pills just make a powder or liquid and mix into rice. prisoner will be able to dose it themself over time.
If caught, they lose the merit point for being able to make purchase from prison store and receive outside food, so why risk it?
Better to not end up in prison in the first place.
Thanks a lot for this informative video...that guy wqs lucky to get 2 visitors a month
Sooo instead of living in my car and eating nothing on some days (while working) I can come here and have it all? Sign me up!
Hav you heard of Norway?
24hr surveillance, surrounded by possibly violent criminals, being surveyed by guards every 2 hours.....you must be delusional.....
@@Horde334Some people are so poor that they don’t know how good they have it.
@riadyl3311 yeah prisoners in Norway live like kings
U wouldnt like it. Clearly u have never been locked up.

Looks like a place I would willing go to get away from the wife.
Looks better than a lot of prisons
Most definitely
That doesn't look too bad for a prison. I suspect a prison like that wouldn't last very long in the US.
seen a good amount of these style of vids they seem more mild mannered than usual its kind of nice to see
this just looks like my university but better
Man, this is better than being homeless!
If you have enough money, you can get lobster and steak the same goes for sorghum wine and Louis XIII the premise is that you are a gang boss outside.
Toughest prison? That's a free holiday lodge....

Nothing can beat Madagascar Prison.😂
@@darshp800 don’t forget North Korea prison camp
Looks like a men's holiday camp.
'Most Serious Offense!'
4:30 imagine having $150 leftover with every other living expense taken care of
I mean you can do that by having a job. If you have a good one, you can have thousands left over after living expenses.
i mean, would they want to break out of prison if some of them doesnt have any place to stay or food to eat outside?
太美麗了，把監獄生活美化了
想到政府花錢拍的鹹水雞的滋味，超級寫實😂
This seems more like a military academy or boarding school but better
Amazing system, so humanized
Looks more like military selection
This beats having to pay rent in the U.S.
Looks like Chuck-E- Cheese compared to LA County.
That's Taiwan very kind to the people
If I'm homeless in Taiwan i rather go to prison...
Is this prison or hostel
You would be crying after few days.
Looks cleaner than the university I'm attending in Taiwan. A part or me wonder if it's at least a little fabricated
the food they eat is much better than what i eat daily....
For a country with an economy smaller than most, they have a seriously humane jail system. Don’t let your government tell you that they don’t have enough money or capacity to treat people decently.
Wish my family and neighbors had these foods while we were living in Refugee camp for a full decade.
They actually eat good compared to other prisons in the world.
Impressive
This place looks like a resort ahaha
thats like 3star hotel...and free sumnmore..
They really need prison like this in the US.
Maybe except for the homemade outside food. That seems like a giant security and allergen risk.
Too good already compare to Singapore
No Singapore way cleaner
Looks like a school
The prison doesn't feel like prison at all, more like a big rehabilitation center or something.
I guess nobody gets their tofu in one piece
Their food actually looks good. I dont know what they're complaining about.
Madagascar prison: that's cute.
Food looks OK?
Better than coffin home in hongkong
My family business supplies food to prisons and I can vouch that the food is of high quality like the ones purchased by restaurants 😀
Taiwanese prisons*
I would miss pillows, music, good food, and conversation with family in prison.
すげぇな待遇良すぎ
Interesting
kind of laughing it looks like a nice place to be, here in California there is no smoking in any prison by prisoners funny that they allow it there
Looks way better than an American prison
What was Lai crime for 10 years jail term?

こんなんで再犯率下がるんだろうか？監房が狭くて汚い以外は楽勝だろ。ウチの会社よりゆるいと思う。
刑務作業に刃物を使用させたり、差し入れを許可したりと刑務所が囚人に一定の自由と責任を与えて、すごく信頼してるのが分かる。でも看守長さんの顔面に傷があるのがすごく気になった。
Not a bad place compared to the others.
No rapes here?
I wonder if those guys cooking in the kitchen if they are getting time off their sentences 🤔
