Some 1,000 millionaires and billionaires are expected to visit the country next month to attend the "Journey Through Time" watch and jewellery exhibition. The event is in conjunction with the Malaysia Year End Sale (M-YES) carnival.But they use violence to trample on the legitimate rights of the Indian poor to gather in peace.
Tourism Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor said the event, organised by YTL Corporation Bhd, was also a way for Malaysia to introduce itself as a shoppers' paradise among the elite.
Ten thousand people ignored official warnings to stay away from a planned rally here, turning up this morning near the British High Commission to hand a memorandum to representatives of the mission, claiming that they had been marginalised and seeking compensation from the British Government.
Police fired tear gas and water cannons at the demonstrators and arrested dozens.
And as boot-lickers within their community abet in the use of violence to suppress their poor by calling it an illegal gathering.
Community leaders from 25 leading Indian associations have backed MIC’s call for tomorrow's Hindraf march to the British High Commission to be cancelled because there are too many political, economic and social concerns at stake.Shameless wannabe leaders of the community fight for scraps that fall off the table of suppression.
“Investors are watching us closely, and if they do not have good vibes about this country, they will shift their attention elsewhere“ said Malaysian Associated Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry public relations and publicity chairman K. Ramesh.
The leaders said they would advise their 500,000-odd members to steer clear of the gathering.
In setting up MIUP, Nallakaruppan said the priority of the new party was to address the Indian community problem using fresh ideas and new blood.So Thambi, what is new in your life?
