Orang Kaya Bendahara Seri Maharaja General (Rtd) Tan Sri Dr Mohd Zahidi Zainuddin, at a press conference, said that the lunch treat was from Sultan Nazrin Shah’s own funding due to his deep concern and kindness towards the welfare of the prisoners and detainees.
He said the lunch treat will be provided at Tapah Prison, Taiping Prison, Kamunting Correctional Centre and Batu Gajah Moral Rehabilitation Centre and are managed by the Perak Prisons Department.
He added that he will represent Sultan Nazrin Shah in Taiping Prison while the Orang Kaya Menteri Paduka Tuan (Orang Besar Jajahan Larut, Matang dan Selama) will represent His Royal Highness at the Kamunting Correctional Centre.
"Orang Kaya-Kaya Panglima Kinta Seri Amar Bangsa Diraja (Orang Besar Jajahan Kinta) will represent the Sultan at the Batu Gajah Moral Rehabilitation Centre and YDH Toh Paduka Indera (Orang Besar Jajahan Batang Padang) will represent His Royal Highness at Tapah Prison.
He said the lunch would be served buffet style and it would be a feast compared with their usual meals.
"It depends on the Prison Department, there could be mutton, chicken, fruits, and perhaps, Rendang Tok could be one of the dishes,” he said.
Earlier, Mohd Zahidi announced during a press conference that Sultan Nazrin Shah will confer the state honours and medals to 238 recipients in an investiture ceremony in conjunction with his birthday celebration.- BERNAMA
