I have to take back my words. I never thought that Vasantha will be allowed to visit his sick daughter in KL, but he did. At least a bit of compassion was shown. Hope the little girl will be lifted by her father’s visit and recover soon.

Vasantha looks a different person with the beard and all. By the way, he passed message that Uthayakumar is feeling better now with proper medication and food suitable for his diabetic condition. » Read more: ISA detainee gets to visit sick daughter

Managed to catch this movie at MidValley on Saturday 4.30pm show (the only one available). Cost RM22 for both of us. And I got an earful for wasting 2 hours of Then’s time!

The movie is a local fare produced by Crescendo Productions and directed by Dharmavathi. There were only 4 of us in the cinema, but a few others came in halfway through the two hour movie. » Read more: Naana Neeya

No one supports Makkal Osai ban

So far, no a single person came out in support of ban against Makkal Osai. On the contrary, many were surprised, while the Indians I met were disgusted and angry to say the least. Surprisingly, even MIC boss Samy Vellu and Murugesan seem to be against it. Samy mentioned that “they can appeal”, perhaps hinting at what will be coming up next. Murugesan was more vocal. Even MCA did not mince their words. Again, this makes me wonder what were those MIC and MCA ministers were doing when this was discussed in the cabinet? Or was the ban not brought up at all? » Read more: No one supports Makkal Osai ban

ISA detainee Vasantha’s daughter sick

I don’t think the emotional factor will sway the Home Minister. The situation is quite clear. Under no circumstances should the detainees be released.  Better still if they die due to some illness. I think that is the strategy now. If not, when some coalition partners ask for release and other partners do not object, why the Home Ministry not doing anything except saying still waiting for police feedback? As long as no order from the boss, nothing moves.  Vishaleny Ihave to wait longer. » Read more: ISA detainee Vasantha’s daughter sick
