Prisoners to get varsity-level courses.

      Prisoners. When this word comes across the people mind, they will start to be stereotype. Yeah. So do I. But, people should realize that the prisoners also a human although they have committed a crime. Based on the excerpt from New Strait Times, I would love to share my opinion.

      For me, ex-prisoners should be given an opportunity for them to survive in a normal life. Some of people might afraid to be closed to the ex-prisoners, but, they should aware that people can change. Plus, I do agree with the Prisons Department that are implementing several measures to enhance the skills and educational level of prisoners with the aim to increase their competency after serving their sentence. Everybody has their own right to get a better life although we are worst from the others. This is because, for me, I believe that not all people can perform better in their life. The same thing goes to the ex-prisoners. They might choose the wrong step in the past, but there is nothing wrong for us to help them to be a better human.

      Ex-prisoners are also eligible to get high education in study field. For example, the Open University Malaysia has offered 10 scholarships in various fields for prisoners. Besides, by giving such of chances, it also can bring positive impact to the country.

      What I’m afraid is, if when the ex-prisoners do not given any chance to change their life, they might end up with the same things again. Not only that, they might feel useless if no one does not care about them anymore. The community should unite in order to help the ex-prisoners to make up their life to be good than before.

      Bear in mind people, that we cannot judge the other people from their past mistakes :). I do the mistake, people do the mistake. All of us do the mistake. =D
