Based on previous report of RM41 for prisoner daily meal:
RM41 X 66,222 Prisoner X 365 day = RM991 million

If the cost was cut to a more normal cost of RM15:
RM15 X 66,222 Prisoner X 365 day = RM362 million (Saving RM629million which equal to a cost of building 1 hospital with 400 bed)

KUALA LUMPUR - Kerajaan mengambil kira pemulihan banduan khususnya pesalah dadah dalam usaha mengurangkan kesesakan dalam penjara, kata Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Datuk Liew Vui Keong.

Beliau berkata cadangan itu merupakan antara langkah yang boleh diambil bagi melaksanakan pembaharuan sistem penjara dan lokap dalam negara selain meminimumkan kos pengendalian institusi penjara.

“Daripada sejumlah 66,222 banduan di seluruh negara ini, 56 peratus daripada mereka terlibat dadah. Setelah mereka kembali daripada menjalani hukuman, 99 peratus akan mengulangi ketagihan dadah ekoran stigma masyarakat yang tidak menerima mereka.

PS: RM41 perday is unsangkarable.

then RM41 is what? buffet style? why dindt begin with normal?

WHAT AN UTTER WASTE OF MONEY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rm41 eat abalone?

learn like US, privatize prison!!!!

Wagyu beef they serve

Niaseng, normal day i eat also less than RM 30

all prisoner eat nasi lemak + tembikai on daily basis, the rest go to minister in charge as special allocation budget named songlap

RM 41 per day considered very luxurious. Average person probably need RM 15 per day.

Maybe inside songlap? U never know but it is possible.

VIP prisoner RM410/day
VVIP prisoner RM4410/week

nasi lemak set nowdays got paha ayam, ikan goreng and telur rebus whole biji + kacang timun sambal

WindDragon can clarify what prisoners eat, is it worth RM41 or warden songlap?

RM 41

Breakfast - RM 10 (Wan tan mee + Teh tarik also got changed)

Lunch Chap fan - RM 12 (with drumstick, meat and Vege)

Dinner - RM 15 (Chicken Chop and drink)

Woah... this price definitely this kind of food at least lah

The mthly food cost is more than min wage in Msia...?

80% drug related. Decriminalize drugs and reclassify them, that will save govt some money.

obvious songlap la

knnccb

Imagine how much can save if just gantung.

Although there is probably preparation cost and maybe transport cost included, it is still excessive

If they eat Dominos Pizza delivery tambah sayur and fruits every day it still won't exceed Rm20

and this is only nasi kari lulz

Malaysia boleh

semua salahan ph.. now inmates got less food to eat.. let's plotek!!

but for malaysia prisoner just the normal rm1 nasi lemak they order from some random relative of the minister in charge
