MIC Youth to explain issues in country
KUALA LUMPUR: MIC Youth leaders will go on a one-week nationwide tour to explain the current political situation in the country and issues affecting the Indian community. Its chief S.A. Vigneswaran said the wing thought that explanations were necessary to let the community know what the Government and the MIC were doing to address their problems.
“Although we know that Indians have supported the Barisan Nasional government since independence, we are not taking things for granted, especially with the recent move by the opposition to use certain groups to create instability in the country. “We in the MIC do not want Indians to cast protest votes in the next general election. We want the community to continue to support Barisan. “We will also tell them how the Government and the MIC have contributed to the well-being of Indians as a whole,” said Vigneswaran yesterday.
He said the tour would also address the issues of disgruntled MIC members who were unhappy with the Government and the party. “We do not want the community to think we have not and are not doing anything for the Indians as claimed by some groups,” Vigneswaran said.
He said MIC Youth was going on the tour following a directive from party president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu and on the advice of Barisan Youth chief Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein. Vigneswaran said MIC Youth leaders have been explaining the party’s views but it was felt that a tour would be more effective. “Now that the dust has settled, we feel the time is right to meet the Indian community in the various states,” he said.
