Sungai Muntoh - Rehabilitation Centres

Rehabilitation Centres

There are more rehabilitation centres in Sungai Muntoh than the rest of the state. The state’s biggest and most reputable prison for junkies and drug-addicts is located there. In early 1997, a breakout of the junkies became national headline. Chaos and mayhem occurred when prison guards tried to arrest the fugitives on the streets. In late 2004, another similar headline caught the attention of NTV7. They did a full coverage on it, stating there could be a possible blue-collar crime going on. An investigation was initiated, but to no avail.

Famous quotes containing the word centres:

    We all have—to put it as nicely as I can—our lower centres and our higher centres. Our lower centres act: they act with terrible power that sometimes destroys us; but they don’t talk.... Since the war the lower centres have become vocal. And the effect is that of an earthquake. For they speak truths that have never been spoken before—truths that the makers of our domestic institutions have tried to ignore.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
