Prisoners in Philippines Undergo computer training.


Manilla Local Government (Philippines) has decided to make their prisoners useful by training them on Information Communication Technology. They said it is an effort they are making to see the prisoners useful when they are done serving their jail term. The superintendent of Taguig City Jail (Maria Irene Esquinas) said “it is a great help to them as some of the people have never handled a computer in their life”.

It is said that inmates undergo computer training at least 3hours a day. Any one of them that is trained for 2months is been given a certificate of completion.

Teresa a 44years old lady, a mother of three who was accused of selling drugs said she is very happy, being able to attend the training while still in jail has given her hope to look forward to. She said she can’t return to the person she was before now. She will turn a new leave when she gets out of the jail and also she said she will get a decent job with the certificate that will be given to her at the end of the course.

So cool
