After a comedy by MCA Youth, now is the turn of MCA and Gerakan seniors to put up a gig 🙂

Totally ignoring Samy Vellu’s warning to other BN components to keep their hands off the Indian community, Gerakan today launched a task force specifically to help the Indian community. Being a multiracial party, they have every right to do so. What is SV and MIC going to do now? Go running to BN supreme council?  » Read more: Gerakan woos indian voters
