Parole Activity And Moral Economy In Malaysia

Abstract

Parole is still newly implemented in Malaysia, and based on previous studies abroad, parole activities are not only able to benefit offenders but also socio-economic activities. The purpose of this research paper is to examine parole activity and its contribution to Malaysia's socio-economic development from a moral and economic perspective. As a primary source, we used the Unpublished Report of the Parole Management Meeting and PBSL, and as a secondary source, we reviewed past study literature. Parole in Malaysia isn't just an opportunity for offenders, but also a benefit for prison management and even socio-economic activities. Places for parole are mainly available through Corporate Smart Internships, which are internships provided by the private sector with a minimum wage.
