Palawan is a tropical paradise with its white coastline, coral reefs, palm trees, turquoise streams and luxuriant rainforest. But it's not as paradisiacal as it seems. The "Iwahig" penal colony has been located on the Philippine island for more than hundred years.
 

The 33-hectare wide land does not even have a watchtower. The 1,700 criminals serving their sentences here include murderers, thieves and drug dealers. Violence breaks out time and time again, and it's everyman for himself.
