Royal Malaysian Police Museum
Three galleries trace Malaysian policing from the colonial period through wartime and insurgency, using uniforms, vehicles, equipment and unusual case evidence to tell an institutional history.
Why go
The museum offers a focused account of how policing changed alongside Malaysia’s political history. Gallery A establishes the colonial force, Gallery B turns to vehicles and evidence from investigations, and Gallery C covers episodes including the Japanese occupation and the Bukit Kepong Incident.
What to look for
Colonial-era police uniforms and equipment in Gallery A
Historic vehicles and evidence linked to triads, secret societies and communist activity
Displays on the Japanese occupation and the Bukit Kepong Incident
Useful to know
Follow the lettered galleries in order to keep the institutional timeline clear.
Verify the current opening timetable with the museum before setting out because official listings conflict.
Combine the museum with Masjid Negara or the Perdana Botanical Gardens nearby.
