But the location they choose is very bad this time.

They are going to put by BCIT, and right next to BCIT there is a high school and church around.  Typical quiet residential area.


Why put a jail next to/close to a high school?

係吾係怕D犯逃獄，周圍打刧？

Not even that.  What if the 犯逃 are "bin tai"? and there are many kids around that area?
I feel bad for my manager as she live so close to Morscop high school and she has two little one...

I think they are not planning to just a jail facility.
I think it's more a remand facility.

They claim people will only stay there for 48 hours and will be release.
Imagine these people who might committed horrible crime and they will be release in 48 hours and walk around your neighbourhood.


It's easy for you guys to say.  It's just a jail ji mah because you don't live in that area and don't have little ones with you.

Of course mental facility is different than jail la.  People who is in mental facility they stay there because of illness where jail/remand facility hold people who might committed murder or serial killer.  Do you want a serial killer release from the remand facility and possibly walk around your neighboorhood?

Well anyways la, if you guys support the proposal.  It's ok and don't need to sign the petition letter.

I  post this up for people who live in the area and want to oppose it.

I just found out my silly brother doesn't even know about it, so I assume there might be more people are not aware of this news.  

So I just post this up, so people in the area is aware of this news lor.
