Wadafak I read 50 pages in 1 night. TS, I would like to congratulate you for getting out. Seems to be doing well from what I read. I got many questions in my head right now but since it's getting really late, I am just going to ask 1 question. You mentioned that your cell got 100 inmates. From that 100 people, around how many percent are the Malay, Chinese, Indian, etc etc? Do most of them got numbers tatoo on their body? When fight does happen, does it sometimes got to do with race? How well do inmates of different color cohabitate? Sorry if my question seems a bit weird, but I am really curious about it. Thank you.

Most is Malays then Indians then Chinese. Very less Chinese inside. Yeah alot of the Malays and Indians are gangbangers. The usual 08 18 36 gangs. Usually the inmates will group up by race. Same as all prisons.
Different races get along well because everyone is in the same shithole together.

Thanks for the input, really interesting info. You mentioned that every cell got 1 taiko. Since most of the inmates prefer to mix with their own race, there must be an alpha one in each group. How do they decide the taiko to rule them all? Is it decided by their status in the triad community? Or perhaps decided by how much follower they have in the cell? Question 2, how about the group rivalry then? Do they prefer to mingle with people of their own skin color, irregardless of the group rivalry? My third question is did you made any unexpected best friend there? Someone you talked a lot with during those 2 years behind the bars? Someone you wouldn't mind joking with, someone you wouldn't mind be open with? I think it might be interesting if you would share the story about how you two met. Given chance, would you mind meeting him outside the bars? Man sorry for the wall of text. I'm so bored.

No one decides. Who decides which lion becomes the alpha in a pride of lions?

Same as outside. People tend to flock with their own race.

I met alot of interesting people while inside. I rarely let anyone get close to me. I don't really have close friends. I have like a thousand acquaintances but no close friends. It's sad really. I wish I have relationships with people. I just find it difficult to have a connection with anyone.

Okay. So basically there's really no spoken hierarchy among the inmates. They just going along with the flow. When you gain enough respect, you are de facto leader. That's what I understand. Speaking about respect, how do they gain it? With violence? Perhaps something simpler such as how they carry themselves in general (personal discipline, interpersonal skill, etc) ?

The next few questions are kinda personal, if you don't mind answering. You can choose not to.

You seem like smart guy, based on your replies in this thread. How do you see yourself in general? Did you regard your fellow inmates as mentally (or any way) inferior compared to you; thus chose not to be close with them?

How do you see your current friends? Do you feel grateful for those who regularly went to visit you during your stint in prison? (I personally feel you should at least upgrade them to be your bestest friend after all that hassle they went through, if any, haha.)

Do you have any 'friend' that never once visit you in Sg Buluh? Do you still have contact with them after you came out? Is this the *real* reason (speculation) that makes you hesitate to make connection with anyone? In the other words, you faith in humanity has been utterly destroyed?

I sincerely hope that you are not trolling with make up story, mate. I spent a lot of my time writing and editing these questions, LOL.
