Uthaya’s mother sends appeal to PM
/* April 16th, 2008 by poobalan | View blog reactions No comments »The Home Minister may have denied accusations that proper medical care have been denied for Uthaya Kumar, but no one seems to believe him. Anyway, about 200++ people gathered to accompany Uthaya’s mother to hand over memorandum to persuade PM to allow for proper medical treatment for Uthaya. Even though the Star said the memo was handed over to PM, information via email says it was given to one of his private secretaries. The appeal letter and Waytha’s press statement is also available online. I just hope the memo doesn’t end up like those that MIC and others submitted throughout the years. » Read more: Uthaya’s mother sends appeal to PM

cabinet approves permit renewal for temple related workers
/* April 15th, 2008 by poobalan | View blog reactions No comments »Well, after a bit of drama and veiled threats and linking to Sikh community by Samy Vellu, the cabinet has kind of given some sort of agreement. Sounds long-winded right? It depends on what category of work is involved, and does not cover bringing new workers. And it needs further discussion before things can become clear. Now, MIC can use this opportunity to ask for allocation to train local people to be experts in the lacking areas. Perhaps can start new courses in local institutes or send for oversea training. » Read more: cabinet approves permit renewal for temple related workers
