The old police station of Bukit Kepong

Continued from Al-Rasyid's visit to the tomb of Tok Tenang.

Next we went to Labis before heading for Bukit Kepong in the district of Muar where lies this old police station.

For reason that would be told later the station has been turned into a museum. Among the displays on the lawn is this boat.


Then there is this armoured car.


And another along with a cut-out of an older police station which used to lie here.


You see the area has a certain historical significance. I won't repeat what has been said here so just read it yourself.

Suffice to say the concrete station you see now was built to replace the wooden one which got burned after an attack. And because of the historical value the newer station is then turned into a museum.

Going inside.

While the station/museum should already be closed as we arrived well after 5 pm the policeman in charge was kind enough to let visitors come in.

This place is practically a fortress.

There is also an exhibition room. Let's have a quick look. For the record this is the 868th article in this blogspot.
