Police in Vietnam's southeast Dong Nai province are searching for more than 200 presumed drug addicts who broke out of a compulsory rehabilitation center.

About 560 inmates broke out Sunday, some using fire extinguishers and sticks to break walls and windows, but police recaptured about 330. The center holds 1,481 inmates, about twice the center's capacity.

Residents in the province east of Ho Chi Minh City have been urged to stay indoors and lock their doors after inmates began moving through the area. Some officials believe the escaped inmates left the province aboard taxis.

I wonder how many “free” stays at rehab they’re allowed before the North Vietnamese “Progressives” just shoot them?

That's probably why they're "missing".

I’m assuming that rehab is not voluntary over there. And they’re smarter than we are; they execute the drug dealers.
