“Penang prison is the oldest, followed by those in Taiping, Batu Gajah, Muar, Alor Setar, and Seremban. All these prisons still use the bucket system. He said this after the launch of Tuan Husain Beladar’s Memoirs Exhibition at the Prison Museum in Banda Hilir which was officiated by Melaka State secretary Datuk Azhar Arshad.
