Cluster B is part of the on-going redevelopment project at Changi Prison undertaken to realise the Singapore Prison Service’s long-term goal of centralising all prison institutions as part of its vision of becoming true ‘Captains of Lives’. More importantly, the new purpose-built Changi Prison will enable Singapore Prison Service to deploy officers more effectively to ensure greater efficiency in the management of inmates, so as to provide more of the latest rehabilitation programmes to help inmates rehabilitate, renew and restart their lives. ST Electronics will design and implement a secured network infrastructure with fiber connectivity for the six blocks at Cluster B. This network infrastructure project is targeted to complete by 2008.
