I kind of agree with SV on this. It is disappointing to read that DAP “allocated” two seats for Indians in Perak. It should always be “best person for the job”, doesn’t matter on his skin color. If Perak DAP assemblymen oppose to this, then they should be exposed for who they really are. the state governments (all of them) must be able to show on what criteria were portfolios allocated to the selected assemblymen. Put up the assemblymen biodata as well, and let the people judge for themselves if the state government have any hidden agenda in allocation such positions. » Read more: Samy blasts opposition EXCO setup

March 30th, 2008Rebrand. Rejuvenate. Revamp. Revitalise. Re-energise. Replace. Looks like words taken from a dictionary! Well, “re-” all you want. Why not just reMIC the whole of MIC? Close shop and try something else for a living. Or quite en-bloc and call for early elections. How about setting retirement age at 72 and limiting term of office-bearers? Oh..one more thing – ensure all members are from Tamil school and their children go to Tamil school, or drop the “champion rights of Tamil school” tag. » Read more: reMIC
MIC councillor arrested by ACA
March 30th, 2008Hmm… is this the actual reason for one the MIC candidates being dropped from Johor state seat election? In the beginning, Samy Velu said the candidate was dropped because the constituency “had more women voters” and thus a woman candidate was chosen. Even the original candidate said that.
