  • In general, prisons worldwide should offer more of this kind of program. These are people with talent and motivation, and though they used said talent and motivation to destroy rather than create, i truly believe that every single human being is capable of creativity, artistry, and positivity.

  • This is the brilliance of the Philippines! The best people on earth. Let's all pray for those inmates. Blessing from the USA.

  • not to mention,they speak english very well...i envy them..hehehe..

    they're all not criminals,some are framed up,some are forced to do it coz of the situation,most of these i am blaming the gov't for stealing the public's money,making the poor poorer and the wealthy wealthier instead of helping each other...

  • @DamN..I deffo agree with you but there are so many prison cells that has loads of programs and schools to give the criminals a chance to have a better future when they come out but most of them are uninterested and not bothered.Back in Philippines,people are beautiful and talented,they always have this strong determination&inspired by the poverty the country's going through..that's what i love about Filipino's..very humble people,there's always a place in our hearts to change

  • boy! baka rapin ka jan! hehehe

  • God bless the phils!

  • good work mabuhay ka!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • creative talent and energy of jailers are captured by a Puey because he made a decision though he felt it is a risk for life is really a risk but he followed his instinct and it produced a better society for the jailers inside and outside their being...a pride that they have contributed their best...CONTINUE AND KEEP HOPING. thanks for uploading this video...very inspiring like byrongarcia video concept 2...watch it too, he explained the rehab and security at Cebu jail.
