Samy gave an explosive interview in MK last week, which have divided into few parts. The first part is below. Here, he talks about the election results, which he claimed he saw was coming. Perhaps he forgot to tell that to those who planned his celebration party on the election night and day after 😆

As usual, politician are masters in the art of lying. So, whatever he says can’t be taken for granted. Pre-election, he said BN/MIC will win. He will squash the enemies, Sg Siput people loved him…blah..blah..blah… No, he’s seen the loss coming? » Read more: Samy Interview Part 1, I saw IT coming

Hindraf kind of failed when it approached India since the central goverment is not so interested to meddle with issues affecting the Indian diaspora. Tamil Nadu was more supportive, but not good enough. Now, it goes to UN. » Read more: HINDRAF goes to United Nations

No citizenship after 38 years

I’m not well-versed in citizenship laws, but I think this should be a clear-cut case. The parent (who would have been Malayans) took him to be registered at the Malayan High Commission, but after many years later, the birth certificate is not found at the commission. Why did it take until 1975 to collect birth certificate? Any proof of communication between his parent and the high commission people between 1963 and 1975? » Read more: No citizenship after 38 years

Samy and the medical degree drama

I didn’t bother much about this news until the names of Samy Vellu, MIED, and Chitrakala appeared. Looks like Indian community issue since 70% of the affected people are Indians.

I have to wonder, if these graduates are from WHO’s recognised programmes, why don’t they find a job anywhere but Malaysia? The country doesn’t want your services (yet?), so why not work elsewhere first? Perhaps the country where they obtained their degrees will be the best option. So, the decision by some of them to sit for overseas qualifying exams sounds like a better move. » Read more: Samy and the medical degree drama
