Well, when the party and its boss come under attack, more “truths” seem to appear. Now is Murugesan’s turn to tell his version of what happened at Padang Jawa on that fateful day. MIC would have tried to cover up this earlier to protect UMNO, but looks like their action is backfiring on them. Toyo is becoming a problem from BN, and maybe, just maybe, MIC have been set up to be UMNO’s henchmen to get rid of Toyo. Or possibly, Toyo have been tasked to retire Samy? » Read more: Murugesan tells his version of Padang Jawa temple demolition

Hmm…is it a case of “mudah lupa” syndrome? I think since 500-odd cars participated, looks like a good sign of support. Problem is that the information for convoy only came in late Thursday, and on Friday. A bit late for many people to take part.  Still, 2000 people gathered on a Sunday afternoon. Not bad. » Read more: Makkal Sakthi support dying?

After being criticized by the party members,  Prof Ramasamy replies. I mentioned that the grassroot members may not be interested in the high level agreements and strategies. Now it seems that this voice of discontent is just a minority. Whatever it is, i think it points to problems that may duplicate BN later. Those who enter politics (and political parties) most likely have personal ambition. It will easy to get a group of people roused up and protest. Thus, Prof Ramasamy and his team should ensure all decisions and issues are clearly explained to members at all levels. I think he needs more people to help him out. If not, his position can be jeopardised. » Read more: Prof Ramasamy replies to critics

Penang Indian assemblymen under fire

Makkal Sakthi bought this people into power. And looks like the same will send them out. The grassroot are not interested in what Anwar or other top leaders say. They see their fellow Indians not given opportunity even though it is claimed to be equal opportunity coalition. Is it because the supporters or loyalist are not qualified? Or any other reasons?

My stand is still the same – best man for the job, nothing else qualifies. If we find the other races getting positions even though not qualified, the for sure the fury from the community will find its way again. » Read more: Penang Indian assemblymen under fire
