PUTRAJAYA: The community services order programme has churned out promising results in the last 15 years with young offenders breaking their criminal cycles and reintegrating into society, says the Welfare Department (JKM).
JKM Community Service Order Programme (PKM) Division assistant director Norhamiza Puniran (pic, above) said a total of over 1.7 million aggregate hours have been clocked in by the 9,680 cases of trainees under the community services order programme in the last 15 years, 98% of whom are juveniles and children sent for rehabilitation by the courts between 2008 and 2023.
