The girls’ home Baan Phak Phing falls under Thai law and almost every year there are changes that we have to comply to in order to renew our license. At first we only had to have camera surveillance outside but since 2024 we must have cameras in all the public places as well, with the exception of bathrooms and bedrooms. We didn’t have the necessary funds, but thanks to donations we have been able to install them.
At first the girls and staff felt uncomfortable having these cameras, which we can imagine, but fortunately, everybody has got used to them now. They know the images will only be watched with good reason and apart from that the cameras provide more safety. We are grateful that we have been able to accomplish this as we are now sure we will pass the inspection and maintain our license.
