But the move by PM Najib to launch a new party is interesting to the Indian community. Especially more so when the new party is very much linked to HINDRAF. I still remember ex-PM Badawi saying “who are they” (referring to HINDRAF) in 2007. Anyway, its an open secret that MMSP got its application super-fast-tracked by ROS due to orders from the top.
The Prime Minister has accepted the invitation to launch the newly-formed Malaysia Makkal Sakti Party on Oct 10.
Party secretary-general Kannan Ramasamy said the Prime Minister accepted the invitation in late August to be the guest-of-honour at the party’s official launch scheduled to be held at 10am at the Malaysia Agricultural Exposition Park in Serdang.
“We are happy that he has accepted the invitation and we feel it is a good start for us with the Prime Minister launching our party,” said Kannan.
The party, which was officially registered early this year, is a splinter group of the outlawed Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) which organised anti-government rallies in November 2007.
Although a large number of pioneering Hindraf members appeared to still be anti-establishment, Kannan and party president R. S. Thanenthiran ? both Hindraf coordinators ? have made peace with the Government.
So, will MMSP be in the mould of IPF, a BN supporter but remaining outside the coalition, with the lure of Senatorship for its leaders, special appoinments and cabinet positions a strong possibility after the next general elections? Or will infighting, sabotage, and other malaise affect it, eventually condemning the party into oblivion?

So, if he says Samy Vellu should go (short of harakiri-ing), or that Nazri should be dropped from Cabinet, or Isa Samad is not fit to be a candidate, there’s something else happening behind the scenes. Let’s look at his comments (also available in Malaysiakini):
“If we look at other countries, whenever a leader fails, he resigns. In Japan he commits harakiri. We’re not asking him (Samy Vellu) to commit harakiri.
“You (Samy Vellu) have failed to lead the MIC until you yourself lost,” he said.
Citing the example of former prime minsiter Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi who resigned after his poor performance, Tun Dr Mahathir said: “Samy Vellu performed worse than Pak Lah (Abdullah) but he did not want to relinquish the post.
“He should have resigned before things got to this stage.”
He said he had a right to criticise anyone for the sake of the Barisan, and added: “I’ve criticised Pak Lah, who’s Samy Vellu that I cannot criticise?” [Where is Samy going to hide after this? Does this mean more MIC staunch supporters will propose or even garland Mahathir’s pictures with slippers? Anyone supporter will self-immolate like in Tamil Nadu? I don’t think so 🙂 ]

The centre’s director and founder, Datuk Dr M. Thambirajah, told reporters after receiving the cheque from Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in Putrajaya on Wednesday.
The centre was established in 1982 to focus on education.
It provides tuition for UPSR, PMR, SPM and STPM students.
He said that over the years the centre had produced 16,000 graduates.
It has 103 branches throughout the country.
He added that the funds would be used to open new centres with better facilities.
