a Nice article about Immigration Detention Centers.

The place where people getting caught on overstay or for working without proper Visa will end up before detention to home country.

Not a place to be.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around immigration detention centers in Thailand, describing them as places where individuals caught for overstaying their visas or working without proper permits are held before being deported. While some comments reflect on the inhumane conditions in such facilities, others debate the broader implications of immigration policies and the treatment of refugees. The sentiment ranges from concern for those who may not have had a choice to overstay to a more punitive view on those deliberately violating immigration laws.

, at home or practice area no problem. Short jam session in a bar no problem, daily playing in bars with big tip box in front of you becomes a bigger problem.

Depends on who you ask. I would say it is not working, it is just enjoying yourself while taking a walk. But as we all know, walking the dog can be done by a Thai, so not allowed.

Det kunne den danske regering og fængsler lære meget af.

1. 1,19 meter plads i celle til 11 personer

2. stå op for at sove

3. indsatte må selv købe mad, vand og toiletartikler

True for those who overstay their visas (from developed countries) but you do have to feel for those refugees who can't really go back.
