Life After Prison: My Fight To Stay Clean After 40 Years

In and out of prison since he was 26 for drug offences, Poh Lim, 66, asked - on Life Behind Bars (   • Life Behind Bars: In Prison For The 10th Time  ) - “If I say that I want to change, would you believe me?” One employer, Marc Lee of Pro-Lifting Solution, did, enough to offer him a job after watching his story. Released from Changi Prison in August 2022 under the Mandatory Aftercare Scheme, Poh Lim started his first full-time job in decades. For ex-offenders, having stable work is crucial to staying crime-free and out of jail. Poh Lim had all but lost hope of being employed, because of his age, frailty and lack of education or experience. Hoping to make his 10th time out of jail his last, Poh Lim’s focus is now on his 88-year-old mother, his job - and trying to reconcile with his estranged sons. 0:00 Recap 0:31 Back to life outside 3:23 His new boss & colleagues 6:29 Mum’s heartache & hopes 9:17 Lost in a new city 11:31 Avoiding temptations 14:30 Son’s letter & a plea 18:50 First trip overseas in 30 years #yellowribbon #cnainsider #beyondmaximumsecurity WATCH: Part 1 of Poh Lim's story in Life Beyond Bars    • Life Behind Bars: In Prison For The 10th Time   WATCH: Beyond Maximum Security, the series    • A Taste Of Freedom From Jail: Prepping For...   WATCH: Inside Maximum Security, the series    • How Tough Is Singapore Prison Life? | Insi...   Also Watch: 40 Years In & Out of Jail, Ex-Gangster Struggles In English-Speaking Singapore    • 40 Years In & Out of Jail, Ex-Gangster Str...   What Former Inmates Do With First Moments Of Freedom :    • What Former Prison Inmates Do With First M...   Check-Out Process At Changi Prison:    • Check-Out Process At Changi Prison: The Mo...   For more, SUBSCRIBE to CNA INSIDER! https://cna.asia/insideryoutubesub Follow CNA INSIDER on: Instagram:   / cnainsider   Facebook:   / cnainsider   Website: https://cna.asia/cnainsider
