Not sure if Sivasubramaniam will be taken to task and discplined. For him, what he did was right, but then after being explained, he said it is misunderstanding. Probably he was frustated and had received many iniquiries from the Indian community in Buntong and Perak. I think DAP have to seriously keep an eye on Perak since problems have been cropping up since election nomination time itself. » Read more: DAP to look into Sivasubramaniam’s grouses

The issues of schools not allowed to invite leaders from opposition-ruled states appeared in Penang and Selangor. The Sun then reported that all 5 states were given the directive. The Education Department DG clarified that such ruling existed for long time. Only certain people were allowed to be invited – Education Minister and his deputy, Education DG, state directors and the representatives. But, how many times have we seen in TV and newspapers pictures of state EXCOs, MPs, businessmen, corporate leaders, Menteri Besars and even PM/DPM in schools? The DG also said that schools have to write to get permission if want to invite others than those mentioned in the ruling. Now who will approve requests by schools to invite Lim Guan Eng, for example? » Read more: no ban says Education DG

No surprises when I read that the Indian assemblyman is given Human Resource as well as health and environment. This makes him the 4 assemblyman to have HR as a portfolio, after Negeri Sembilan, Johor and Penang. Malacca, Kedah, and Selangor EXCO don’t handle HR.

What we see here is that Indians are not capable of handling more important portfolios like trade, finance, etc. » Read more: Perak EXCO portfolio list

MIUP Penang to close shop

The party got off to a wrong start by having its launch on HINDRAF rally day. Then the leader picked a fight with PKR. Now the Penang members are unhappy. What we (as man-in-the-street) can understand is that this is a party for the leaders with personal ambition. They are willing to join the winners instead of sticking with their principles (if they have one). How many state will follow Penang MIUP and run to other parties? » Read more: MIUP Penang to close shop
