We will not tell them (not to) says Samy.

– indirect support???

anyway, MIC said they will monitor if any members are attending it, so they themselves should be sending many people to do the "monitoring". Finding excuse to attend? 🙂

Indians ‘lured by reward’

KUALA LUMPUR: The Indians here have been led to believe that they will each get a huge sum of money as compensation in the class action suit filed by the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) against the British Government, said MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu. Samy Vellu said this was how Hindraf had been gathering support from the Indians here for its plan to hold a gathering in front of the British High Commission this Sunday. 

The gathering is to submit a petition with 100,000 signatures to Queen Elizabeth II to appoint a Queen’s Counsel to represent the Indian community in the suit. 

“According to them (Hindraf), the Indians in the country are still deprived. They are dreaming of big support (for the rally) and told the people that they would get RM1mil compensation per Indian from the British Government. “Many Indians are thinking that they will get RM1mil from them. Let them get RM1mil. I also want to join them and take RM1mil from them,” he told reporters after attending a Deepavali gathering organised by Tenaga Nasional Berhad yesterday. 

The class action suit was filed at The Royal Courts of Justice in London in August against the British Government for bringing in Indians as indentured labourers into Malaya and exploiting them for 150 years and thereafter failing to protect the minority Indians rights in the Federal Constitution when independence was granted.  It was reported that the sum sought was US$4tril (RM13.5tril) or US$1mil (RM3.4mil) for every Indian residing in Malaysia. 

To a question, Samy Vellu said he would not stop any MIC member from joining the gathering. “Those who want to join anything, that’s their business. We will not tell them (not to),” he said, but added that the people “must use their own head” in deciding whether joining the gathering was the right thing to do.  

Meanwhile, the police said they have rejected Hindraf’s application for a permit to hold the gathering on Sunday. Cheras OCPD Asst Comm Ahmad Amer Mohd Hashim said he received the application letter on Nov 7 but decided on Nov 16 not to issue a permit as the rally could pose a disturbance to the public. He said Hindraf could appeal again through city police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Zulhasnan Baharuddin by today.

Kumar says:

Please leave money issue aside. I want justice and equal rights for my fellow Indians in our own land. Semi Value have been invisible on issues regarding Indians and ask him to stay that way. He is a traitor to Indian community.

Samy Velu did not do much for the indian community. Lot of Indian doctors well qualified but are not recognised. He did not do much for them but left them in lurch. When the con-joint programme was set for the medical doctors who are so called unrecognised a lot back-biting was going on by MMC as majority of them were Indians. The con-joint programme set by the Ministry of Health gave some ray of hope but was diminished by the internal forces within the Ministry of Health. The internal forces in the Ministry did not let these doctors to proceed with the practicals and announced they failed. Many of them were pronounced not qualified. The Government failed to support these medical doctors and so called them unrecognised. These days under the medical act you can find majority are not worthy to practice medicine compared to the medical doctors who are so called unrecognised and left in lurch to fend their living doing other jobs not relevant to their profession. Many went and appealed but Samy failed them. They are left to rot and die. Those who gave up the fight may be a handful of two or three left the country for good. Nowadays Tom Dick and Harry can become doctors blindly called the Blind Man’s Buff.

Samy announced that those unqualified doctors he cannot do anything more but they can go abroad to survive. But amongst the unrecognised doctors the Malays, Chinese and Indian Muslims were filtered and taken into government service declaring they passed the qualifying exams…
Samy did not settle this issue for these professional qualified personnels and now he is ready to step down…If he cannot then WHO?? he did not have another person to trample him down………
