They said Samy Vellu realised that the Indian community had to be united to be heard, thus the reason for him to invite everyone, including his one-time sworn enemy Datuk S.

Sivarasa vowed to bring up the issue of  HINDRAF ISA detainees. The parliment is going to be very interesting to follow. I hope TV will show it live 🙂

What we consider as key concerns, I would start with the issues like the ISA and release of the five Hindraf detainees.

Another interesting he mentioned was that MP “job” is “part-time” He still has his law firm to run!
