PKR newsletter named Makkal Sakthi
Alamak! Would Hindraf allow this? Makkal Sakthi is a common word, no one copyrighted it yet, so technically PKR can call their newsletter as such. However, if HINDRAF is to remain apolitical and as a pressure group and still be associated with the term “Makkal Sakthi”, then HINDRAF must ask PKR to not use the term for their newsletter. They must not be seen swaying too much to any one side, even though currently they are supportive of Pakatan side due to their similar causes.
KUALA LUMPUR: “Makkal Sakthi”, previously the rallying cry for the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf), is now the name for the Tamil edition of Suara Keadilan, Parti Keadilan Rakyat’s newsletter.
The first issue hit newsstands yesterday and the copies were quickly snapped up by members of the Indian community.PKR information chief Tian Chua said yesterday that despite the “rebellious” title, the weekly newsletter is printed with permission from the Home Ministry.

This is a slap on the face of Makkal Samadhi / Goondraf people. How come this morons of PKR could steal the name MS and use it for their newsletter ?
Perhaps it just goes to show that day by day Goondraf is dying a little….just like what I had prediicted before the GE.

PKR can use the term makkal shakthi….their earlier cry of “reformasi” is also born out of makkal shakthi shown by malaysian in late 90’s.
