Interesting to note that the writer saying Hindraf’s action has caused negative impact from the Malay kampungs. The Malays there may feel that govt is giving too much to MIC in order to get the Indian community support. Can it be due to distorted reports in the TV and newspaper that influence the Malays or the Malays are adamant in not willing to share with other Malaysian in an equal manner? » Read more: How will the Indians vote?

Why does one need to call MIC men for help? Does it mean the systems in the country does not work without interference by political forces? An individual cannot get things done on his/her own when dealing with govt dept, police, education, business license, local authorities, taxation etc.? Sounds bad.

Badawi does not respect the Indians! That’s the message from Hindraf’s rep. Not even sending a representative or acknowledging HINDRAF, but now talking about them.

Instead of apologising for the insulting and violent treatment dished out to the Indian community on the 16th, he has the gall to brand Hindraf as “extremists”! Well, its still better then the “terrorist link” nonsense raised earlier. » Read more: PM does not respect the Indians
