 .Guide to life in prison
>> Thais can now get an idea of what life is like behind prison bars thanks to a new website created by the prisoners themselves and put on the internet by the prison authorities (www.hosdoc.com).

The site offers a range of advice like how to get to sleep in a cell, how to make one's sentence as short as possible or how to be prepared for release. It also allows the prisoners and their families to obtain information on the legal system.

"We want people to understand that it's not as bad as they think but not so comfortable that you'd actually want to spend time there" explains John Lertwitworapong, director of Bangkok's prison hospital where the site is updated by the hospitalised prisoners. Source: Bangkok Post (/LA)
