Guru Sementara perlu dimansuhkan.......

2010-11-18T21:16:00.000-08:00

Pandangan saya Guru sementara perlu di mansuhkan dan diberikan status guru tetap.Kebanyakan guru guru kita yang ramai berkerja sebagai guru sementara.Apabila membuat permohonan untuk guru tetap permohonannya tidak diluluskan.Kini negara kita kekurangan guru guru tetap kebanyakan disandar oleh guru guru sementara.Kali ini banyak permohonan telah tidak diluluskan ,oleh itu kementerian Pendidikan perlu mengambil tindakan segera untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut dan seterusnya memansuhkan status guru sementara.

42,000 Orang tidak mempunyai Kad Pengenalan

2010-11-09T16:56:00.000-08:00

Seperti mana yang dihebohkan di dalam media iaitu 42,000 orang di Malaysia tidak memiliki kad pengenalan, bagi saya kuantiti tersebut tidak betul sama sekali.Dalam pengetahuan saya lebih 3 kali ganda daripada kuantiti tersebut yang tidak mempunyai dokumen tersebut.Kuantiti ini hanya tidak mempunyai kad pengenalan tetapi memiliki kad pengenalan merah ialah lebih daripada kuantiti tersebut.Kepada pengetahuan umum selepas 42 hari jikalau seseorang bayi dilahir kalau tidak membuat surat beranak maka masalah besar akan dihadapi untuk memilikinya dari segi dokumentasi yang banyak.Oleh itu kecuaian daripada ibu bapa adalah faktor utama menyebabkan mereka tidak ada Surat beranak dan Kad Pengenalan...

Dato Seri Samy Vellu Berundur January 2011

2010-09-30T23:49:00.000-07:00

Dato Seri S.Samy Vellu Presiden MIC semalam telah memutuskan utk mengundur diri sebagai Presiden parti pada January 2011.Bagi kami pengumuman tersebut agak menyedihkan tetapi kami menghormati keputusan beliau.Dato Seri dalam 31 tahun ini telah membawa begitu banyak perubahan bagi parti dan Negara.Beliau menjalankan parti dengan penuh sistemetik serta kenalkan rang undang undang parti yang begitu baik.Pemuda dan Wanita MIC di beri peluang untuk bertanding pada pilihan raya umum.Memperkenalkan sayap Putera dan Puteri untuk memperkuatkan lagi kekuatan Parti. Sebagai MP Beliau membawa banyak perubahan di Sungai Siput.Beliau sentiasa berperhatin terhadap rakyat contoh apabila beliau kalah pada pilihan raya umum 2008 di Sungai Siput,beliau teruskan aktivitinya serta menolong rakyat di disana. Ini kerana beliau tidak melupakan jasa jasa baik rakyat Sugai Siput apabila beliau sebagai MP.

Sebagai Ketua Masyarakat Beliau Sentiasa memberikan perhatian terhadap Pendidikan .Oleh itu Kolej TAFE dan Universiti AIMST telah di bina. Dalam Sejarah Dunia tidak ada sebarang Universiti yang dibina khasnya untuk masyarakat india. Hari ini begitu banyak jurutera yang berbelajar dari Kolej TAFE berada di serata dunia.

Sebagai Menteri Kerja Raya beliau orang yang pertama memperkenalkan "Fly over".Beliau juga orang utama pembinaan Lebuh raya Utara Selatan.Hari ini rakyat Malaysia penuh selesa untuk menggunakan lebuh raya Utara selatan tersebut.Begitu banyak lagi perjuangan perjuangan yang beliau tercipta.Tidak ada orang setanding dengan beliau..Perjuangan Dato Seri pasti dikenang.Jasamu tak terhitung,bagaikan Air yang mengalir,Keringatanmu tak terhingga,Bagaikan air Hujan....Pemuda MIC Gopeng Hands Up For U Sir!!!!!!!

One girl dead, 2 missing, 19 safe after falling into Sg Kampar

2009-10-26T20:36:00.001-07:00

One girl is dead, two pupils are still missing and nineteen have been found safe.
They are the 22 pupils on a camping trip who fell into Sungai Kampar when the suspension bridge they were crossing broke near Kuala Dipang, Kampar, at about 10pm on Monday.
The dead girl was identified as Dina Deve Nathan, 11, from SK Tamil Mambang Diawan. Rescuers found her at Kampung Pasir, about 2km downstream from the broken bridge, at about 8.40am Tuesday. Her body was sent to the Kampar Hospital.
Police said twenty other pupils, who were not on the bridge, escaped unscathed.
According to one of the survivors, Mohd Azid Teng, 12, from SKJC Bemban near Kampar, the pupils had had supper at SK Kuala Dipang and were crossing the bridge to get to the camping site when a few of the pupils started jumping and shaking the bridge.
The bridge then gave way and he found himself falling into the river along with the other screaming pupils.
Fortunately, he fell into shallow waters and waded out.
They were among 298 students from 60 primary schools from Kampar, Tronoh and Batu Gajah who were attending a co-curriculum activity organised by the Kinta Selatan district education office.
Search and rescue is ongoing.
Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir is at the scene

MIC telah membawa balik masyarakat kaum india di Bagan Pinang ke Barisan Nasional.

2009-10-11T18:33:00.000-07:00

Salam 1 Malaysia.Terlebih dahulu saya bersama sama dengan Pemuda MIC Gopeng mengucapkan tahniah kepada Barisan Nasional yang telah menang besar di Bagan Pinang .Kemenangan ini bukan sekadar kemenangan kecil tetapi kemenangan ini telah mendapati majority yang lebih besar berbanding pada pilihanraya umum yang lalu.Pengundi pengundi Masyarakat kaum India 1380/1800 telah memilih BN/MIC. (Siliau, Atherton, Bradwall dan Sua Betong) sapu bersih yang mana sebahagian besarnya terdiri daripada pengundi kaum India..Ini menunjukan Masyarakat kaum India telah mula menolak dan membenci parti Pakatan Rakyat yang telah menipu Masyarakat kaum India terutamanya di Kampung Buah Pala Pulau Pinang yang lalu.Saya juga terharu dengan angka undi di Bagan pinang majoriti 5,435 undi, selepas memperolehi 8,013 undi manakala lawannya daripada PAS, memperolehi 2,578 undi.Jumlah itu lebih besar daripada majoriti 2,333 undi yang diperolehi BN pada pilihan raya umum 8 Mac tahun lalu. Bijak ,Bijak,Bijak.......

Pemuda MIC Gopeng mengucapkan tahniah kepada Ketua pemuda MIC Kebangsaan Saudara T.Mohan ,Timbalan Ketua Pemuda MIC Kebangsaan Saudara Mugilan serta semua Pemuda Pemuda MIC yang menolong secara langsung atau tidak langsung untuk memberi kemenangan Manis kepada Barisan Nasional.

Mana Pergi Anwar Ibrahim?.

2009-08-17T19:00:00.000-07:00

Semalam adalah hari calon penamaan bagi Permatang Pasir.Ketua – ketua Barisan Nasional dan juga pembangkang datang untuk memberi sokongan kepada calon calon yang bertanding.Anwar Ibrahim juga kelihatan untuk memberi sokongan Apa yang pelik beliau boleh datang ke Permatang Pasir tetapi sehingga sekarang beliau tidak pernah memijak tanah Kg Buah pala selepas Pilihanraya umum yang lepas.Beliau pernah berkata Anak melayu anak saya,anak cina anak saya dan anak India anak saya. Hari ini anak India mempunyai masalah di Kg buah Pala kenapa beliau tidak turun untuk menyelamatkan anak India?Sepertimana beliau memberi janji sebelum Pilihanraya umum yang lepas untuk memyelamatkan kg Buah pala tersebut.Anwar Ibrahim telah menipu penghuni penghuni Kg Buah Pala.Mana pergi Anwar Ibrahim?

Difahamkan 1 September ini rumah rumah di Kg Buah Pala akan dirobohkan.Tidak ada seorang pun daripada ketua ketua India Pakatan Rakyat menolong untuk menyelamatkan Kg tersebut selain daripada MIC. YB Gobalakrishnan MB Padang serai boleh menyuara di Permatang Pasir Kenapa beliau tidak menyuara untuk Kg Buah Pala?Inilah MB Pakatan Rakyat,inilah Anwar ibrahim dan inilah wajah yang sebenar Pakatan Rakyat.Masyarakat India di Malaysia Perlu menolak Anwar Ibrahim serta Pakatan rakyat sekuat kuatnya.

Hari ini 3 ogos 2009 hari bagi rumah rumah di Kampung Buah Pala atau lebih dikenali High Chapperal akan dirobohkan atas keputusan mahkamah.Tetapi keputusan tersebut ditunda ke esok atas alasan memberi tempoh sehari lagi kepada penduduk untuk berpindah.Saya mempunyai sebuah soalan kepada YAB Prof Ramasamy Timbalan Ketua Menteri II Pulau Pinang.Beliau boleh datang ke KL untuk perkara Maika Hodings dengan membawa pemuda pemuda beliau untuk menyuara kenapa beliau sebagai Timbalan Ketua Menteri II tidak mahu membuat demonstrasi di bawah bangunan Komtar atas perkara Kampung Buah Pala?Ini bermaksud Prof Ramasamy adalah sebagai patung(control) yang di (control ) oleh Ketua Menteri Pulau Pinang, Lim.Guan Eng.Dimana perginya YB Manikavasagam,YB Kulasegaran YB Gobalakrishnan yang tidak bercakap langsung mengenai perkara ini sampai sekarang.tetapi mereka pandai untuk merekai cerita yang bukan bukan, sebenarnya cerita tersebut tidak terjadi sama sekali.Inikah orang orang yang membela kaum kita?Perlukah Kita menyokong mereka.Jawapanya Fikir sendiri.
Hari ini Pemuda pemuda MIC seluruh negeri diketuai Saudara T.Mohan telah berada di kampung buah pala bukan untuk alasan politik tetapi atas membela kaum kita yang bermasalah.MIC kian lama telah membela kaum india di Malaysia ini bukan baru untuk MIC.Saya mengucapkan ribuan terima kasih kepada semua Pemuda pemuda MIC serta NGO’s yang berada di kampong buah pala dan teruskan perjuangan kita yang belum selesai lagi.

Pakatan Rakyat Indian Leader’s are Mandor (overseer)

2009-07-02T01:17:00.000-07:00

Seperti mana yang dikatakan oleh Wayhamoorthy Prof Ramasamy adalah DAP Indian mandor sebenarnya bukan beliau seorang saja jadi mandor tetapi kesemua PR Indian leader’s are mandor.15 bulan berlalu Pilihanraya umum yang ke 12,5 negeri ditawan oleh Pakatan Rakyat dan 5 daripada 4 negeri tersebut mempunyai PR Indian Leader’s.Apakah perubahan drastik telah berlaku kepada kaum India di negeri negeri tersebut? Adakah janji janji yang diberinya pada GE 12 tersebut telah pun ditunaikan?Jawapannya tidak sama sekali
Hari ini apa yang berlaku di Pulau Pinang janji janji yang diberikan kepada penghuni penghuni di High chapel tidak ditunaikan sama sekali.Perlukah lagi kita masyarakat India di Malaysia menyokong ketua ketua seperti ini.Saya yakin kita perlu menolak mereka mereka ini yang menipu kaum kita sendiri.

Fikirkan lah jangan sekali lagi terpedaya terhadap penipu penipu atau lebih dikenali mandor mandor yang telah pun menipu kita ini.

Kedah DAP pulls out of state Pakatan coalition

2009-07-01T05:11:00.000-07:00

Kedah DAP has pulled out from the state Pakatan Rakyat coalition, saying the PAS-led government was not giving equal treatment to all Kedahans.
State DAP chairman Thomas Su said the most recent issue involved the demolition of an illegal pig slaughterhouse at Kampung Berjaya in Jalan Putra here.
He said the state government failed to handle the issue properly.
“Although the slaughterhouse was operating on land belonging to the Alor Setar City Council, the state government had the power to postpone demolition work.
“This would have given more time for the Kedah Pigs Trader and Slaughterer Association to find a new site,” he said at a press conference after witnessing the demolition work on the illegal slaughterhouse here Wednesday.
Mayor Datuk Khazali Din was quoted as saying recently that the slaughterhouse was built illegally on the site 30 years ago, and the council had ordered the association to vacate the premises several times since 1995, with the latest such directive issued in May.
However, the association had asked for a postponement until the end of June this year, to give it time to find a new place, Su said, claiming that Kedah Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Azizan Abdul Razak had supported its application.
Su said that the one-month grace period was not enough for the association to find a new location for the slaughterhouse.
“Another issue that we feel the state failed to handle amicably was the 50% housing quota for bumiputras in the state,” he said.
Su said that he would inform the national DAP headquarters on the state’s decision.
Azizan said the decision on the new location for the slaughterhouse should be made by the association that runs the premise.
“I was told that the association has submitted an application to the Pendang district office for a piece of land in Kampung Cina on June 26 and the district office technical team is studying the application,” he told newsmen after chairing the state executive council meeting on Wednesday.
Azizan said that decision to postpone the demolition of the slaughterhouse must be made by the council and the state government could not interfere with it.
The Pakatan council will be holding an emergency meeting on Thursday to discuss the pullout

Desakan Mursyidul Am PAS Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat supaya Nasharuddin Mat Isa melepaskan jawatannya sebagai Timbalan Presiden parti kerana menyokong kerajaan perpaduan, dijangka dibincang pada mesyuarat parti itu Isnin ini yang akan dipengerusikan presidennya Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang, kata beberapa pemimpin parti itu.
Menurut mereka, Abdul Hadi yang kini berada di London, dijadual pulang Sabtu ini.
Naib Presiden PAS Datuk Mahfuz Omar berkata beliau memang terkejut dengan kenyataan yang agak keras oleh Nik Aziz terhadap Nasharuddin.
Bagaimanapun, katanya, beliau tidak menganggap ianya adalah satu permulaan perpecahan parti.
Seorang lagi Naib Presiden PAS Salahudin Ayub pula berkata, mengikut tradisi parti, perkara sedemikian akan diputuskan pada mesyuarat parti.
Ahli Jawatankuasa PAS Pusat Datuk Taib Azamuddin Md Taib pula berkata beliau yakin pemimpin peringkat tertinggi parti itu mampu menyelesaikan perkara tersebut.
Nik Abdul Aziz hari ini secara terbuka meminta Nasharuddin meletakkan jawatan dalam parti serta sebagai Anggota Parlimen Bachok, jika beliau masih berhasrat meneruskan agenda kerajaan perpaduan.
Penasihat Parti Keadilan Rakyat Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim berkata beliau yakin masalah itu mampu diselesaikan dengan bijaksana oleh kepimpinan Pas manakala pemimpin kanan DAP Lim Kit Siang pula berkata beliau akan mendengar sendiri penjelasan berhubung perkara itu daripada Presiden PAS pada mesyuarat Isnin ini.

Di ALOR SETAR, Menteri Besar dan Pesuruhjaya PAS Kedah, Datuk Seri Azizan Abdul Razak berkata Nik Abdul Aziz seharusnya meminta penjelasan daripada Nasharuddin sebelum membuat sebarang keputusan berhubung perkara berkenaan.
"Sebagai ketua, tok guru (Nik Aziz) boleh panggil Nasharuddin, minta penjelasan, tidak boleh buat kesimpulan berdasarkan kenyataan akhbar semata-mata.
"Memang tok guru menentang (kerajaan perpaduan) tapi terlampau awal untuk buat keputusan begini kerana akan timbul kekeliruan dan jadi tidak seronok di kalangan ahli," katanya.
Ketua Pemuda Umno Gua Musang Bazlan Baharuddin berkata kenyataan Nik Aziz itu adalah disebabkan beliau risau penguasaan PAS terjejas di Kelantan. BERNAMA

2009-06-14T03:40:00.000-07:00

MIC Youth will intensify efforts to assist Indian small and medium-entrepreneurs (SMEs) obtain loans and financing.
Its chief T. Mohan said the community should avail itself of the opportunities available.
He said this to reporters after launching a Bank Simpanan Nasional (BSN) micro-financing scheme for Indians here yesterday. A total of RM16mil or 8% of the scheme’s RM200mil has been allocated to the community.
Mohan said businesses with a paid-up capital of below RM250,000 were eligible for the scheme.
“The amount of credit available ranges from RM5,000 to RM50,000 and no collateral or guarantor is required,” he said.
“Those interested can obtain application forms from the MIC Youth headquarters.”
Mohan said, on average, it would take two weeks for a loan to be approved.
The financing covers SMEs involved in manufacturing, retail, services and wholesale.
Mohan added that MIC Youth would hold a nationwide roadshow to promote and raise awareness on financing facilities available for Indian SMEs.
Also present at the launch was BSN deputy CEO Winston E. Jeya-prakash.

Indians urged to send children to Tamil schools

2009-05-29T17:39:00.000-07:00

PERAK MIC chief Datuk G. Rajoo has urged Indians to continue to send their children to Tamil schools which he described as being the base for the growth of the Tamil language in this country.

The Government had provided free education for children and had also given the necessary financial support for the development of Tamil schools, he told reporters after attending a dinner organised by the Bukit Gantang MIC division for the recipients of the state and federal awards given by the Perak Sultan and the King recently.

Pakatan Perak adakan mogok lapar tiga hari

2009-05-23T00:28:00.000-07:00

Masalah Politik Perak telah pun pergi ke tahap yang lebih memalukan ini kerana Pakatan Perak ingin adakan mogok lapar tiga hari berikutan keputusan Mahkamah berpihak kepada BN Dr Zamry.Bila ditanya mereka berkata mereka sudah lama memutuskan supaya mengadakan mogok lapar. Ini bukan berkaitan keputusan semalam.Cara ini bukan adat kita untuk mendapatkan hak rakyat.Saya rasa sungguh kecewa kerana keputusan keputusan yang diambil oleh Pakatan Rakyat adanya semua bertentangan dangan undang undang.Keputusan Mahkamah semalam adalah bagi saya satu keputusan yang agak adil dan betul.Sebelum ini Nizar telah memberitahu apa juga keputusan yang diberi oleh mahkamah dia akan terima tetapi kenapa pulak mogok Lapar?

MOGOK LAPAR BUKAN JALAN PENYELESAIAN!!!!!!!!!!!

11 bulan berkuasa…apa kata Ngeh, Nizar ikut aje (agendadaily)

2009-05-19T17:44:00.000-07:00

SIRI SATU

Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri Behrang, Jamaluddin Mohd Radzi, adalah antara tiga ADUN Perak yang membuat keputusan meninggalkan parti masing-masing dan mengisytiharkan diri mereka menjadi ADUN Bebas yang menyokong Barisan Nasional (BN).

Ekoran daripada tindakan mereka yakni Jamaluddin dan Osman Jailu ( Changkat Jering) dari PKR dan Hee Yit Foong DAP Jelapang, kerajaan negeri Perak bertukar tangan selepas baru 11 bulan berkuasa.

Ini apabila BN yang semasa pilihan raya Mac 2008 memperolehi 28 kerusi kini mendapat sokongan tiga ADUN menjadikan majoriti menyokong BN sebanyak 31 kerusi.

Sebaliknya pakatan pembangkang daripada 31 kerusi turun menjadi 28.

Namun, selama ini beliau hanya mengambil sikap mendiamkan diri dan tidak tampil memberikan penjelasan apa sebenarnya sebab beliau meninggalkan pakatan pembangkang.

Dalam satu temuramah hampir tiga jam dengan Agendadaily di Kuala Lumpur Sabtu lalu Jamaluddin memberi sedikit sebanyak gambaran lebih jelas kenapa beliau mengambil tindakan tersebut.

Bagi siri kali ini, fokus diberikan kepada sebab-sebab beliau meninggalkan pakatan pembangkang yang berkaitan dengan sikap Menteri Besar, Datuk Seri Nizar Jamaluddin dan perjalanan mesyuarat Exco yang secara jelas menggadai kepentingan orang Melayu.

Ini katanya, kerana penguasaan dua orang kuat DAP, Ngeh Koh Ham ,(Pengerusi DAP Perak,ADUN Sitiawan,Exco Kerajaan Negeri dan Ahli Parlimen Beruas) dan Nga Kor Ming ( ADUN Pantai Remis Exco Kerajaan Negeri dan Ahli Parlimen Taiping ) ang terlalu besar dalam Exco membuat keputusan.

Soalnya bilakah beliau mula rasa lain macam dengan Exco dan rasa-rasa tak boleh duduk dalam Exco lagi ?

Jamaluddin menjelaskan mengikut isu. Dalam soal penukaran kereta rasmi Exco daripada Proton Perdana kepada Toyota Camry beliau berkata:

“Saya sebut kita kena angkat kereta nasional. Kita kena ada semangat kenegaraan. Kalau kerajaan Terengganu masa itu nak tukar Mercedec, itu kerajaan BN, ini kerajaan pakatan. Kita tunjuk kita sayang kepada kereta nasional. Semangat patriotik kena ada.

Nizar minta saya sediakan kertas untuk hujahkan perkara itu. Mulanya dalam Dewan (Dewan Undangan Negeri) dia sebut 10 biji Camry yang bernilai RM920,000 tapi bila mesyuarat Exco dia kata 15 buah termasuk ex-officio. Tapi kita tak dapat pengeculian cukai, harganya menjangkau RM2.5 juta. Kalau Perdana baru RM1.76 juta jadi kita boleh jimat RM740,000. Ada lagi perkara lain yang saya hujahkan dalam kertas itu hinggakan saya sebut kalau Anwar jadi PM adakah kita nak tutup kilang Proton.

Nizar setuju dengan hujah yang saya kemukakan dan kekal untuk gunakan Perdana.

Tapi bila masuk mesyuarat Exco , sebut sahaja soal kereta, Ngeh Koo Ham kata Camry baik, itu baik ini baik dan macam-macam lagi hujahnya, daripada 10 buah, keputusanya tempahan dibuat 15 buah. Walhal sebelum itu beliau setuju dengan saya.

Nizar dengan Ngeh… dia terlalu tunduk. Apa kata Ngeh dia akan ikut. Dia bukan pemimpin Melayu.Dalam isu hak milik tanah Kampung Baru 999 tahun dan penukaran syarat tanah rumah kos rendah ?

Semua ini berlaku dalam mesyuarat Exco. Soal rumah murah, kerajaan BN banyak luluskan tapi belum dilaksanakan lagi. Tapi bila kerajaan pakatan ambil alih ramai pemaju buat permohonan tukar syarat daripada rumah kos rendah kepada rumah kos sederhana dan rumah banglo.

Saya sebut dalam mesyuarat Exco, kerajaan dulu (BN) rancang benda ini baik. Usaha untuk menempatkan orang-orang susah, berpendapatan rendah untuk memiliki rumah di bandar.

Saya sebutkan kepada Nizar usaha tukar syarat tanah akan menyebabkan orang Melayu tidak ramai yang berkemampuan untuk miliki hartanah di bandar dan terus pastikan orang Melayu hanya tinggal di pinggir dan di kampung-kampung sahaja.

Waktu pertama beliau membuat undian dalam mesyuarat Exco siapa yang menyokong siapa yang tidak bersetuju ?.

Yang menyokong Tai (PKR), Nga Kor Ming dan Ngeh. Yang menolak saya dan Kapten Osman Jailu.
Nizar pada hari itu ambil keputusan menolak walaupun tiga menyokong dan dua tidak setuju manakala lain-lain Exco berkecuali.

Saya tulis nota kepada Nizar, jangan amalkan undi angkat tangan. Jika angkat tangan, Melayu ada tiga orang sahaja dalam Exco termasuk Nizar sebagai MB ada empat.

Lepas daripada itu tiap-tiap minggu ada sahaja permohonan, saya bantah… hendak tukar syarat tanah daripada bina kos rendah kepada sederhana dan bunglo. Pada hal syarat yang
telah diluluskan oleh kerajaan dahulu untuk rumah kos rendah. Semua cadangan tu datang daripada syarikat-syarikat bukan Bumiputera.

Namun jika ada permohonan daripada syarikat Bumiputera, ada sahaja yang dipertikai oleh Ngeh dan Nizar setuju walaupun Pengarah Tanah dan Galian beri syor untuk diluluskan.

Bagi permohonan bukan Bumputera, walaupun cadangan dibuat untuk ditolak, tapi Ngeh kata ia perlu diluluskan dan Nizar setuju. Sampai saya buat catatan M (Melayu) dapat berapa dan C (Cina) dapat berapa. M lulus tiga C lulus sembilan.

Hinggakan pada mesyuarat berikutnya saya ambil pendirian berdiam diri…cuma bila permohonan datang daripada C, saya terus jerit LULUSKAN sahajalah, bila permohonan Melayu saya jerit TOLAK aje. Tujuan saya nak memperli Nizar supaya dia sedar… tapi dia tak peduli pun.

Nampak sangat dia takut dengan Ngeh.” katanya.

Dalam isu tanah 999 tahun, siapa yang bawa cadangan itu kepada Exco?
Jamaluddin berkata: “Yang bawa cadangan itu Ngeh sendiri. saya bantah kerana perkara itu kerana ia tidak ada ada dalam manifesto PKR pun. Saya sebut kepada Nizar jangankan 999… 99 tahun pun kita akan dikritik hebat… tapi kerana terlalu nak jaga kehendak DAP, Nizar ikut sahaja.

Sampaikan saya kata UMNO dah lebih 50 tahun memerintah, baru rakyat tolak mereka.Tapi pakatan baru 11 bulan.

Saya dengar di kantin pegawai-pegawai dah mula bersungut pasal pemberian tanah 999 tahun yang mereka rasakan melampau.

Ekoran itu, saya bertemu Nizar. Saya bangkit soal tanah…balak semua ditender. Jadi saya tanya dia bolehkah ada pertimbangan atau diasingkan dalam soal pemberian tender kepada Bumiputera dan bukan Bumiputera. Dia kata tak boleh.

Saya beritahu dia kalau macam itu, peluang Bumiputera khususnya Melayu sampai bila nak dapat.

Bila kita hujah lebih sikit, dia diamkan dirinya. Tapi dalam ceramah dia mula cakap kita tak boleh perjuangan satu kaum sahaja. Kenapa masa kita jumpa dia bincang dia diamkan diri sahaja.

Begitu juga dalam soal pemberian tanah kepada sembilan sekolah Cina

Saya sebut dengan Nizar, tiap-tiap tahun kita beri bantuan kepada sekolah terbabit sebanyak RM30,000 setahun kenapa nak beri tanah pula.

Akhirnya Nizar setuju dengan pandangan Ngeh, daripada nak beri tanah 1,000 ekar kepada sekolah-sekolah itu, Ngeh tukar kepada 1,000 hektar, Nizar pun setuju juga. Daripada ekar kepada hektar, Nizar ikut sahaja.

Berdasarkan pengalaman selama 11 bulan bersama mereka, Exco memang dikuasai oleh Ngeh dan Nga. Nizar patung sahaja. Segala-galanya dikawal oleh Ngeh dan Nga.

Dayuslah kita, hanya kerana nak duduk jawatan Exco, apa sahaja Ngeh dan Nga buat kita akur sahaja.

Saya tak boleh. Kita dari dulu kaki lawan. Selama 10 tahun berjuang apa kita dapat. Habis wang ringgit sendiri untuk parti…hari ini dapat RM14,000 sebulan besar sangat ke,” ujar beliau mengenai senario sebenar yang berlaku dalam Exco Perak di bawah pimpinan Nizar semasa pakatan pembangkang perintah negeri Perak.

Siri berikutnya, kita ikuti, kenapa beliau tinggalkan PKR, apa konspirasi PKR terhadapnya dan bersih sangatkah kerajaan pakatan pembangkang negeri Perak ? – agendadaily

Parti muncul dan berkubur, tapi MIC kekal bertahan...

2009-05-14T18:32:00.000-07:00

MIC tidak akan tergugat walaupun pemimpin Hindraf yang baru dibebaskan dari tahanan di bawah ISA mahu menubuhkan parti politik, kata Presiden MIC, Datuk Seri S Samy Vellu.

Menurutnya, dalam tempoh beberapa dekad yang lalu, banyak parti politik kaum India muncul tetapi kemudiannya berkubur begitu sahaja, tetapi MIC terus kekal bertahan."Selama 64 tahun kewujudan MIC, begitu banyak parti politik kaum India ditubuhkan, tetapi tidak lama selepas itu, ianya berkubur... Ia bukan satu ancaman kepada kita," katanya kepada pemberita di Kuala Lumpur.

Menyentuh tentang populariti Hindraf, Samy Vellu berkata, terdapat satu soalan yang masih belum terjawab."Berapa besarkah penyokong pemimpin Hindraf, beberapa peratuskah sokongan yang mereka ada, kita tidak boleh menilainya berdasarkan kepada apa yang kita lihat pada 25 November 2007 (sewaktu protes jalanan)."MIC ada cara baru untuk berbuat sesuatu, cara baru untuk menarik orang muda datang dan bekerja dengan MIC sekarang," tambahnya.Samy Vellu diminta mengulas mengenai kemungkinan Hindraf menubuhkan parti politik bagi melebarkan lagi perjuangannya.

Ini ekoran keputusan kerajaan membebaskan kesemua lima pemimpin Hindraf yang ditahan di bawah ISA.Mereka ditahan pada Disember 2007selepas mengadakan protes besar-besaran yang disertai ribuan penduduk India Malaysia bagi menyuarakan kekecewaan mereka terhadap kerajaan.Hindraf kemudiannya diharamkan oleh kerajaan hingga sekarang.

Kecam ManoharanDitanya mengenai kemungkinan mengadakan dialog dengan pemimpin Hindraf, Samy Vellu mengecam seorang pemimpin Hindraf, M Manoharan.Katanya, beliau tidak akan berdialog dengan pemimpin Hindraf ekoran kenyataan yang dibuat oleh Manoharan dalam reaksinya terhadap kenyataan setiausaha agung MIC, Datuk Dr S Subramaniam."Bila saya berkata hello, bolehkah saya berjabat tangan dengan anda dan anda menggigit tangan saya, itu bukan (sifat) manusia, kita tidak meminta mereka menyertai MIC, kita tidak mahu mereka, gayanya amat berbeza, dia orang DAP, macam mana kita nak minta mereka menyertai (MIC)? MIC adalah MIC, DAP adalah DAP."Budaya mereka juga amat berbeza, (budaya) mereka adalah budaya pembangkang," tambahnya.

Manoharan, yang juga ADUN Kota Alam Shah dilaporkan berkata, beliau tidak akan sekali-kali menyertai MIC kerana beliau dilahirkan untuk bersama DAP.Manoharan berkata, beliau juga menolak budaya MIC dan kerana itulah beliau tidak membenarkan penyokongnya memakaikannya kalungan bunga sewaktu dibebaskan dari Kamunting.Sebelum itu, MIC melancarkan portal barunya untuk berinteraksi dengan golongan muda kaum India melalui internet.Menurut Samy Vellu, portal tersebut akan dijadikan lidah rasmi parti itu dan untuk pendaftaran ahli melalui talian."Masyarakat kini boleh berinteraksi dan berkomunikasi dengan MIC pada bila-bila masa dan di mana-mana sahaja. Kita mahu mendengar suara masyarakat, kita mahu mereka memberitahu kita apa yang mereka mahu dan bagaimana kita boleh membantu mereka."Bila kita buat silap, kita mahu masyarakat memberitahu kita, menasihat kita dan memberi cadangan. Inilah bentuk hubungan yang kita mahu wujudkan dengan pihak masyarakat," tambahnya.

Hindraf mahu Manogaran kekal ADUN, pertikai peranan Pakatan

2009-05-04T01:32:00.000-07:00

Pertubuhan Hindraf yang telah dibubarkan, mahu salah seorang pemimpin yang masih ditahan di Kamunting, M. Manoharan kekal sebagai Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN) Kota Alam Shah.
Pada waktu yang sama, Hindraf mempersalahkan Pakatan Rakyat kerana tidak mengambil usaha yang menyeluruh untuk membebaskan Manoharan daripada tahanan bawah Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA).
"Kami merayu kepada Manoharan supaya mempertimbangkan semula keputusannya (yang kini serius mempertimbangkan untuk mengosongkan kerusi DUN).
"Penduduk di Kota Alam Shah tahu siapa yang mereka mengundi apabila memilih Manoharan sebagai wakil mereka," kata Pengerusi Hindraf, P. Waythamoorthy dalam satu kenyataan hari ini.
Kata beliau, Hindraf percaya bahawa pengundi Kota Alam Shah telah bersedia untuk menghadapi keadaan yang dilalui sekarang apabila wakil rakyat mereka tidak dapat bersama mereka secara fizikal kerana ditahan di bawah ISA.
"Oleh kerana pengundi berada 100 peratus berada bersama wakil rakyat mereka, Manoharan tidak harus letak jawatan dan perlu terus kekal sebagai wakil rakyat kerusi itu," katanya lagi.
Waythamoorthy berkata, Hindraf juga kecewa kerana selain kenyataan media tiada tindakan konstruktif dan positif di pihak Pakatan untuk membebaskan Manoharan ataupun mengurangkan bebannya dalam usaha berkhidmat kepada pengundi-pengundinya. "Rakan-rakan dalam Pakatan perlu memperlihatkan tanggungjawab mereka dengan serius untuk mengekalkan keyakinan yang diletakkan pada mereka dengan mengambil tindakan-tindakan proaktif dan kempen berterusan untuk membebaskan Manoharan dan kesemua tahanan yang lain," katanya lagi.
Kelmarin, Manoharan mengesahkan beliau sedang memikirkan untuk mengosongkan kerusi itu kerana rasa bersalah dan tidak adil tidak mampu menunaikan tanggungjawab kepada pengundi serta menghadiri persidangan Dewan Undangan Negeri Selangor.
Penasihat Undang-Undang pertubuhan haram Hindraf itu ditahan pada 13 Disember 2007. Pada pilihan raya umum 8 Mac 2008, Manoharan memenangi DUN Kota Alam Shah mengalahkan calon Barisan Nasional (BN), Ching Su Chen.
Sementara itu, Kerajaan Selangor menjelaskan Exco serta Ahli Majlis Perbandaran Klang (MPK) membantu memberi perkhidmatan kepada penduduk Kota Alam Shah walaupun Manoharan ditahan ISA.
Exco Kerajaan Tempatan, Kajian dan Penyelidikan Selangor, Ronnie Liu berkata, bantuan bagi memastikan kerajaan negeri terus menjaga kebajikan pengundi di kawasan berkenaan.
Beliau berkata, selain isteri Manoharan, S Pushpaneela, empat lagi pembantu dilantik bagi memberikan perkhidmatan kepada penduduk.

Speaker DUN Perak: Ganesan sahkan dicalon ganti Sivakumar

2009-05-01T17:07:00.000-07:00

Setiausaha Badan Perhubungan MIC Perak, Datuk R. Ganesan mengesahkan yang namanya telah dicalonkan untuk menggantikan Speaker Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) Perak, V. Sivakumar daripada Pakatan Rakyat minggu depan.
Bekas Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN) Sungkai itu menjelaskan, beliau telah memberi persetujuan untuk dilantik ke jawatan tersebut apabila DUN bersidang Khamis ini.
"Saya telah menandatangani surat persetujuan dilantik ke jawatan Speaker dua hari lalu, 29 April," kata beliau ketika dihubungi mStar Online sebentar tadi.
Beliau juga merupakan anggota Jawatankuasa Kerja Pusat (CWC) MIC dari tahun 2000. Beliau memenangi kerusi DUN Sungkai dengan menewaskan A. Sivanesan dari DAP pada pilihan raya umum 2004.
Ganesan, 57, lulusan undang-undang menambah, beliau bersedia untuk memikul tanggungjawab tersebut jika diberikan kepercayaan oleh parti.
"Saya adalah penyokong parti dan apa jua keputusan dibuat oleh parti, saya akan menyokong.
"Dalam hal ini, saya mengucapkan terima kasih kepada pucuk kepimpinan MIC dan Menteri Besar (Datuk Seri Dr. Zambry Abdul Kadir) kerana memberikan kepercayaan memegang jawatan ini," katanya lagi. "Saya telah mendengar khabar angin bahawa saya akan dilantik sebagai Speaker sejak beberapa hari yang lalu dan ada dua nama lain turut disebut-sebut... ia cuma menjadi pasti kelmarin apabila surat persetujuan diberikan kepada saya oleh BN untuk ditandatangani," katanya.
Laporan media menyebut antara nama turut disebut-sebut ialah Datuk Dr. S. Vasan yang pernah bersaing di kerusi DUN Pasir Panjang pada Mac 2008, yang dimenangi oleh bekas Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin.
USUL
Terdahulu, Bernama melaporkan, BN telah menamakan Ganesan sebagai calon Speaker DUN Perak yang baru.
Memetik tulisan Sivakumar dalam blognya: speakforperak.blogspot.com, laporan itu menyebut bahawa usul tersebut telah diserahkan ke Pejabat Setiausaha DUN Perak di sini pada pagi semalam.
Usul bertarikh 29 April lepas itu dicadangkan oleh Zambry dan disokong seorang Exco Datuk Hamidah Osman.
"Surat persetujuan daripada Datuk R. Ganesan untuk dipilih sebagai Speaker Perak juga disertakan bersama-sama usul ini," katanya.
Sivakumar pada satu sidang akhbar di sini semalam ketika ditanya mengenai usul pelucutan jawatannya, katanya beliau mengakui memang ada usul yang diterima berkaitan perkara itu tetapi menegaskan pihaknya belum membuat apa-apa keputusan lagi.
Zambry pada minggu lepas telah mengemukakan usul kepada pejabat Setiausaha DUN Perak untuk melucutkan jawatan Speaker V. Sivakumar seterusnya melantik speaker baru pada persidangan DUN dijadual 7 Mei.
Usul itu yang disokong Hamidah menerusi surat bertarikh 22 April lepas diterima Setiausaha DUN, Abdullah Antong Sabri pada 23 April dan diberi notis untuk dibawa pada Mesyuarat Pertama, Penggal Kedua, DUN Perak ke12 pada tarikh yang ditetapkan itu.
Abdullah dalam suratnya kepada semua 59 ADUN Perak bertarikh 27 April lalu berkata, sekiranya usul itu diluluskan dalam mesyuarat berkenaan, urusan mesyuarat berikutnya ialah pemilihan Speaker baru.
Berikutan itu, beliau meminta semua ADUN mengemukakan cadangan bagi memilih Speaker baru menggunakan borang pencalonan yang dikepilkan bersama dengan surat berkenaan.
Nizar pada sidang akhbarnya semalam ketika ditanya mengenai usul untuk melucutkan jawatan Sivakumar, berkata semua ADUN berhak mengemukakan apa saja usul dan terpulang kepada Speaker untuk tindakan seterusnya.
Bekas Exco Kanan Perak yang juga Pengerusi DAP negeri, Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham sebelum ini dilaporkan berkata ADUN pakatan PAS-DAP-PKR tidak akan memberi maklum balas terhadap usul tersebut kerana mendakwa notis yang dihantar Abdullah itu tidak sah disebabkan Setiausaha DUN Perak telah digantung tugas oleh Speaker bulan lalu.

100 ex-PKR and Hindraf members join MIC

2009-04-23T16:57:00.000-07:00

About a hundred former PKR and Hindraf members have joined MIC Youth, says the movement’s chief T. Mohan.
Mohan said the members, aged between 18 and 40, submitted their application forms at the MIC Youth headquarters here yesterday.
He said the youths from Klang, Kepong, Puchong and Cheras were led by K. Kumaresan, a former personal assistant to Kapar MP S. Manikavasagam.
He said this group left PKR and Hindraf after realising that they had been misled by promises from the PKR-led government.
He also said 1,000 youths were expected to join MIC in a soon-to-be launched recruitment drive called “Let’s join MIC”.

Call to revamp RTM Tamil news

2009-04-21T17:03:00.000-07:00

MIC Youth has called on RTM to revamp its Tamil news and programmes, claiming the current ones are of poor quality.
“They are there merely to fill up programme slots,” said movement chief T. Mohan.
He added that the Tamil news needed to be more timely and to use a pro-Government concept.
“The activities of Indian leaders are also seldom given sufficient coverage in the Tamil news segment, so much so that we have to rely on private television networks,” he said after presenting a memorandum to Information, Communications and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim at his ministry yesterday.
Mohan said the lack of quality of the Tamil news and programmes further distanced the MIC from the Indian community, as 70% and 80% of them watched RTM’s Tamil news.
The MIC wing also wanted more space for its community activities and to highlight the Government’s contribution to the community.
Another appeal is for the ministry to revert the Tamil news time slot from 6pm to between 7.30pm and 8.30pm.

Mahkamah batal penggantungan Zamry dan exco

2009-04-15T23:49:00.000-07:00

Mahkamah Persekutuan hari ini membatalkan penggantungan terhadap Menteri Besar BN Perak, Datuk Zambry Abd Kadir dan enam ahli exconya daripada menghadiri sidang Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) Perak.
Zambry dan enam exconya itu, sebelum ini memohon kepada Mahkamah Persekutuan untuk membatalkan keputusan Speaker DUN Perak, V Sivakumar yang menggantung mereka selepas BN menubuhkan kerajaan negeri di Perak Februari lalu tanpa pembubaran DUN.Zambry digantung selama 18 bulan manakala enam exconya digantung selama setahun.Mahkamah memutuskan hari ini bahawa tindakan Speaker itu adalah terbatal tidak sah kerana Sivakumar tidak mempunyai kuasa untuk berbuat demikian.Oleh itu, katanya, Zambry dan enam exco terbabit boleh menghadiri sidang DUN yang akan datang.Oleh itu, Presiden Mahkamah Rayuan, Datuk Alauddin Mohd Sherif yang mengetuai panal lima hakim itu berkata, keputusan tersebut dibuat sebulan suara.Manakala, Zambry berkata, notis untuk mengadakan sidang DUN akan dikeluarkan Jumaat ini atau minggu depan.

'Cina, India bukan peminta sedekah'

2009-04-13T03:21:00.001-07:00

Malaysiakini
Pengundi bukan Melayu "tidak mahu dilayan seumpama pengemis" - apabila menjelang pilihanraya, mereka ditaburkan dengan pelbagai projek pembangunan dengan harapan mereka memilih calon BN, kata jurucakap rasmi MCA. "Bukan Melayu tidak suka dilayan seperti peminta sedekah, hanya ketika pilihanraya kecil, lebih banyak penaikan taraf jalan dilakukan, peruntukan kepada sekolah, NGO dan badan amal meningkat," kata ahli jawatankuasa pusat parti itu Lee Wei Kiat.Beliau mengulas wawancara Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin semalam yang melihat ketewasan besar BN di parlimen Bukit Gantang dan DUN Bukit Selambau sebagai sikap tidak kenang budi pengundi bukan Melayu terhadap kerajaan. Ditanya Mingguan Malaysia "bukankah setiap kali pilihan raya kecil, permintaan kaum bukan Melayu dipenuhi, malah di Bukit Gantang walaupun peruntukan RM1 juta diberikan tetapi kaum Cina tidak juga menyokong BN", timbalan presiden Umno berkata: "Ya, kadang-kadang kita berasa terpedaya juga kerana zahirnya nampak macam 'OK', sambutan dengan tepukan gemuruh tetapi mungkin sudah ada tertanam dalam hati iaitu sesuatu tidak mudah hendak berubah, pokoknya masalah isu Perak terutamanya di kalangan masyarakat Cina yang mungkin telah dipengaruhi dengan sentimen simpati kepada Datuk Seri Ir Mohamad Nizar Jamaluddin, kononnya dia 'dijatuhkan', lepas itu kononnya dasar memberi pegangan tanah selama 99 tahun dilihat dasar yang menguntungkan. "Ini yang mungkin menyebabkan sukar BN mendapat sokongan walaupun kita fikir bila mereka hendak sekolah Cina dibantu, kita bantu, sepatutnya mereka membalas budi. "Pada waktu itu, kita pun tidak berharap sokongan kaum Cina akan meningkat 40 peratus dan sebagainya cuma kita berharap ada peningkatan sedikit tetapi apa yang berlaku ia mencatatkan penurunan, macam tidak ada penghargaan terhadap apa yang kita lakukan." Wawancara pertama dengan Muhyiddin - selepas dilantik pemimpin nombor negara - mendapat liputan meluas akhbar-akhbar utama berbahasa Cina hari ini yang semuanya menonjolkan wawancara tersebut yang dianggap negatif kepada pengundi bukan Melayu. Sin Chew Daily melaporkan "Muhyiddin – Cina tidak bersyukur kepada BN', Nanyang Siang Pau "Cina kenakan BN. Muhyiddin – Dapat manfaat tetapi tidak beri undi" dan China Press pula "BN rasa tertipu. Muhyiddin - Penuhi tuntutan Cina tapi masih tiada sokongan".Selain MCA, Gerakan dan DAP juga membidas analisis Muhyiddin itu juga mendakwa pengundi Cina dan India kini menganggap diri mereka "kuasa penentu" kekuasaan selepas lima negeri, termasuk Kelantan, jatuh ke tangan Pakatan Rakyat. "Persoalannya apakah mereka melihat dalam konteks senario politik baru ini, selepas kerajaan BN tumbang di lima buah negeri, mereka sudah menjadi kuasa penentu? Orang Cina rasa sekarang, walaupun mereka kumpulan minoriti, merekalah menentukan kerana kelompok masyarakat Melayu sudah berpecah tiga kumpulan."Masyarakat Cina tidak berpecah mereka bersatu, setidak-tidaknya dari segi semangat apabila bersama-sama membuat sesuatu keputusan. "Dalam keadaan ini, mereka boleh menentukan keputusan sesuatu pilihan raya dan apabila kesan itu dapat dilihat dalam pilihan raya umum lalu dan beberapa pilihan raya kecil, mereka fikir sekarang mereka lebih ada kuasa penentu, bukan sahaja Cina malah masyarakat India pun begitu, apatah lagi apabila mendapat kedudukan dalam kerajaan yang ditubuhkan pakatan pembangkang dengan menjadi timbalan ketua menteri, speaker dan exco kerajaan negeri, jadi ini bagi mereka seolah-olah tawaran yang diberikan oleh pihak sana lebih baik daripada kita pernah tawarkan dalam konteks BN, jadi ini kita harus teliti," Muhyiddin dipetik berkata dalam wawancara tersebut."Kebimbangan saya orang yang tidak menjadi penentu sudah menjadi penentu, orang Melayu yang majoriti sepatutnya menjadi penentu sudah tidak menjadi penentu. "Justeru bagi kita kalau boleh sebaik mungkin mereka bernaung di bawah sayap Umno, tetapi Umno yang relevan dan memahami cita rasa rakyat, Umno yang adil, Umno yang lebih bersedia untuk melihat dengan lebih saksama, ini kita kena fikirkanlah."Timbalan Presiden Gerakan, Datuk Chang Ko Yuan berkata pengundi Cina di dua kawasan tersebut sukar mengaitkan diri mereka dengan BN kerana ia tidak lagi menegakkan yang terbaik di Malaysia.""Amalan biasa (BN) menaburkan peruntukan tidak lagi membawa kesan kerana ramai yang melihatnya sebagai cubaan tidak bijak untuk meraih undi. Masalah mereka mesti ditangani berterusan dan menyalurkan peruntukan sewaktu pilihanraya kecil lagi berkesan dan meyakinkan," katanya. "Isu-isu yang lebih pokok seperti rasuah, penyalahguanaan kuasa dan kesaksamaan dalam kepemimpinan nasional dan sistem penyampaian kerajaan harus ditangani dahulu, barulah pengundi yang lari daripada BN pada 3 Mac 2008 akan bersedia kembali (bersama BN)."Chang sebaliknya mencadangkan idea "Satu Malaysia. Rakyat Didahulukan, Pencapaian Diutamakan" yang dipromosikan oleh Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak haruslah diberikan lebih penekananan kerana ia boleh memberi makna sebenar perjuangan BN.Selain mencadangkan kempen bersama antara pemimpin Melayu dan bukan Melayu untuk semua kaum, Chang menambah, ramai pengundi kini terpengaruh dengan slogan keadilan dan kesaksamaan yang dibawa oleh Pakatan RakyatSementara tokoh DAP Lim Kit Siang menyifatkan kenyataan Muhyiddin itu sebagai "pengesahan" bahawa BN mengaku bersalah mengamalkan politik wang ketika pilihanraya, menggunakan dana awam khususnya dalam bentuk projek pembangunan sebagai umpan untuk meraih sokongan pengundi.Mengulas wawancara dengan ahli parlimen Pagoh bertajuk 'Kuasa penentu Melayu hilang jika terus berpecah', Lim menafikan pengundi Cina dan India ingin menjadi "kuasa penentu" politik dengan menyisihkan Melayu dalam lanskap baru politik. Beliau menyifatkan kenyataan Muhyiddin itu "jelas sekali tidak sesuai, paling mengejutkan dan menyinggung perasaan" sebagai timbalan perdana menteri yang baru dan bertanya "apakah ini yang dimaksudkan oleh 'Satu Malaysia' Najib?"

Semalam ada Ketegangan tercetus antara penyokong MIC dan PKR di Bukit Selambau.Ketua umum PKR seorang pembohong terbesar malaysia telah mengkritik Perdana menteri serta presiden parti MIC.Anwar membohong kali kedua terbesar di Bukit Selambau, iaitu dia kata ada satu kejutan akan diumumkan malam semalam tetapi kini dia menukar pengumuman tersebut pada 7 April, kali kedua rakyat kena tipu dimana kali pertama dia kata 16 Sept beberapa Ahli parlimen akan menyertai Pakatan Rakyat serta dia akan merajui negara sebagai perdana menteri.Saya juga tidak faham kenapa Anwar menipu rakyat serta rakyat terus menaruh harapan terhadap Anwar pembohong Malaysia. Rakyat Bukit selambau khususnya kaum india perlu fikir secara rasional jangan terpengaruh cakap Anwar.Kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat dan Arumugam Bekas ADUN PKR Bukit Selambau tidak buat apa apa kepada rakyat kaum india,diminta cuti umum bagi Thaipusam tidak diberi,apabila membeli rumah potongan bebarapa peratus bagi kaum bumiputera kedah.Akhir kata Pemuda MIC akan mencabar Anwar jangan main main dengan kami,kami belum terlupa apabila Anwar menjadi menteri pendidikan dia yang mengeluarkan bahasa tamil sebagai bahasa yang tidak penting di universiti.Apabila dia menjadi menteri kewangan,lagi tidak guna.Akhir sekali menjadi Timbalan Perdana menteri langsung tidak buat apa apa kepada kaum india kini dia merayu kepada rakyat kaum india supaya dia akan menolong meningkatkan prestasi kaum india dimalaysia.ANWAR SEORANG PEMBOHONG................................

2009-03-29T18:54:00.000-07:00

Banyaknya calon Bebas bertanding pada pilihan raya kecil Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN) Bukit Selambau 7 April depan adalah manifestasi suasana politik di Kedah yang masih tidak menentu.Ini akan Memberikan Kelebihan kepada BN untuk menang kerana perpecahan undi dari calon bebas dan juga perpecahan ekoran tidak dapat menerima calon PKR S.Manikumar.Saya juga berJanka perubahahan baru pucuk pimpinan Umno akan memberi kelebihan kepada Pengundi Melayu untuk mengundi parti BN manakala Pengundi India tidak akan menerima PKR S.Manikumar muka baru dan baru 2 Tahun menjadi Ahli PKR sebagai Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri BuKit Selambau

Minggu Lalu Menteri Besar Kedah telah mengatakan bahawa calon bebas yang menang pada pilihanraya Bukit selambau dan masuk ke Pakatan Rakyat tidak akan dapat Kerusi Exco Kerajaan. ini perlu faham oleh pengundi pengundi di Bukit selambau supaya jangan merugikan undi mereka kepada calon calon yang tidak akan memberi pembaharuan atau perubahan kepada rakyat di Bukit Selambau.Saya pasti Parti Barisan Nasional sahaja yang akan Membawa pembaharuan dan perubahan kapada rakyat Bukit Selambau.Undilah BN MIC Datuk Ganesan anda akan gembira selalu.Pemuda MIC Gopeng Menyokong Datuk Ganesan.....

Bring religious education to Tamil schools: MIC Youth

2009-03-23T02:50:00.000-07:00

KUALA LUMPUR: MIC Youth has urged the Government to implement religious education in Tamil schools as a measure to overcome social ills in the Indian community.
MIC Youth coordinator T. Mohan said religious education would help steer youths away from damaging activities.
“It is saddening to see reports of Indians being involved in gangsterism and violent crimes in the newspapers of late. We believe these youths had not been given any religious education,” he told reporters after chairing the national council meeting here Monday.
Mohan said the wing had already submitted a letter to Education Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein requesting religious education be introduced in Tamil schools.
“We are undertaking some research and will submit a memorandum to the ministry within four months,” he said.
Mohan said the results would not be seen overnight but he was sure of positive results within five years.
“We have to start somewhere to ensure that there is a future for our generation in the country,” he said.
Mohan said the wing would also have discussions with Indian-based non-governmental organisations to find ways of reducing the incidence of crime within the Indian community.

CALON PKR DI BUKIT SELAMBAU...

2009-03-20T22:34:00.000-07:00

Media menggembar-gemburkan bahawa terdapat penentangan hebat terhadap pemilihan Manikumar sebagai calon PKR di DUN Bukit Selambau.Walaupun beliau berpendidikan tinggi apa gunanya kepada rakyat Bukit Selambau.Beliau baru 2 tahun menjadi ahli PKR bagaimana dengan ahli ahli PKR yang lain yang sudah lama perkhidmat untuk parti PKR?PKR tidak mampu membawa Calon daripada anak jati Bukit Selambau. Walaupun sesetengah pihak mengatakan Calon Bariasan Nasional Datuk Ganesan 'recycle' serta umurnya tinggi tetapi harus faham bertapa umurnya tinggi begitulah tinggi ideanya yang matang serta pengalaman politik yang kukuh dan bukan macam calon PKR Manikumar yang tidak tahu apa apa tentang politik dan tidak kenal rakyat di Bukit Selambau.Saya yakin MIC Datuk Ganesan akan menang di Bukit Selambau serta membawa pembaharuan kepada rakyat Bukit Selambau.

Little India to be renamed

2009-03-17T17:08:00.000-07:00

Why to Renamed the Little India?What's Wrong?The Selangor state have lot of thing can change for Rebranding exercise.

This is a styl of Pakatan Rakyat...

Controversial move to change the name of Klang’s famous Little India to Medan Kelana has sparked a public outcry.
Elected representatives, businessmen, tourists and even a state executive council member want the name Little India to be retained.
Despite the controversy, the municipal council is soon going to remove the name Little India from two signboards here, and put up new ones declaring the place as Medan Kelana.
The name was chosen as the main road in Little India is called Jalan Tengku Kelana.
Klang municipal councillor Ho San Sang confirmed the name change, saying it was part of a “rebranding exercise.” The district tourism committee member did not elaborate.
State exco member Dr Xavier Jeyakumar told The Star the name change would defeat all the hard work that had gone into building Little India into a tourist icon, and that the move would also erase the identity of the area.
Sekinchan assemblyman Ng Suee Lim
said he would bring this matter to the state exco because it was wrong to simply change the name of a place that could affect tourism.
Little India here is a famous shopping enclave with 100 pre-war shops on either side of Jalan Tengku Kelana. It draws shoppers by the thousands and is an important income generator for Klang.
Kuala Lumpur and Selangor Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Klang District) chairman N.P. Raman said changing the name would also erase the identity of Klang’s Little India – which had been built into a household brand known all over the world after 50 years of hard work.
American tourist Michelle Smith, 25, and her friend Miyoko Takagi, 23, said it would be a shame to change the name of a place so easily recalled by tourists.
Klang resident Wong Wei Yin, 63, said many people were unhappy with the name change because folks here had fond memories of the area linked to the Indian community.The star.

Pakatan Rakyat Indian MP's failure....

2009-02-26T19:03:00.000-08:00

Today i Like to touch about what was MIC President Dato Seri S.Samy Vellu pointed to Pakatan Rakyat MP Prof P.Ramasamy and several Pakatan MP's contributions to our Indian Community.I was very disappointed with several Pakatan indian MP's they was realy failure to do what they promises to the people.....specially one of incident happen On Deepavali Night 2008 at Ipoh Little India. Former Perak Pakatan Indian Exco was condemm that MIC fail to put Signboard LITTLE INDIA here. So he promise Pakatan will settle to put the Sign board ...but until today nothing was put on that place... Just this is small promises also cannot setlle it what about biggest promises..... Today MIC can List up what was MIC done for our community....What about Pakatan RAkyat indian MP's?

Prof P.Ramasamy was challenging Dato seri Samy Vellu he is indian represent in Malaysians and Pakatan Rakyat had more Indian representatives in Parliament compared with Barisan and the MIC. What for? No any benefit for Indians... What are benefit talk by Pakatan rakyat for indian at parliment.

Every week Dato Seri Samy Vellu will meet and settle 200 to 400 people's problam at MIC head cotress. How many People Prop. Rama meet and settle in per week? Can he show it?

The Indian community has not benefited despite the appointment of DAP’s Prof P. Ramasamy as a Deputy Chief Minister in Penang, said MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu.
“We feel his appointment was a sheer waste based on his zero performance,” he said.
“Although the Pakatan Rakyat government has been credited for appointing the first Malaysian Indian to a powerful post, the community has been let down.”
Samy Vellu was commenting on Ramasamy’s call to the Federal Government not to channel any allocations meant for the Indian community through the MIC as the party would only mismanage it.
He said Ramasamy, who is Batu Kawan MP, should stop harping on trivial matters but instead concentrate on doing something meaningful for the Indian community.
“With his background as a university lecturer for 30 years, Ramasamy could have used his position and experience to bring development and initiate new plans for Indians not just in Penang but also in the whole country,” said Samy Vellu.
He said he was shocked to see a man holding such a high position being unable to understand how the government machinery operates.
He said that it was through the MIC’s initiative that Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced, after chairing the Cabinet Committee for Indian Affairs, various goodies for Indians, including a 7.4% quota in civil service jobs and a RM50mil allocation for Tamil schools.
Samy Vellu said that Ramasamy had also publicly announced that he was not representing a particular community, although the Indians had placed high hopes on him to bring about change.
“What good is it to have an Indian placed in a very powerful and influential post, when he has done nothing for the Indian community, let alone the other races?” he asked.
Samy Vellu said Ramasamy had only questioned and challenged the economic and social transformation and benefits initiated by the MIC for the Indians through the Federal Government.
“He picks on what we do and takes credit by saying if not for Pakatan Rakyat there would be no move on the part of the Federal Government to bring social development to the Indians,” he added.
Samy Vellu challenged Ramasamy and other Indian elected representatives from Pakatan Rakyat to list their contributions to the Indian community.
“Don’t just take credit for making noise over certain incidents, but tell us what you have done for the betterment of Indians economically and socially,” he said.

Umno Youth angrily mobs Karpal in Parliament

2009-02-26T18:42:00.000-08:00

Im very sad what is happen on YB Karpal Sings at a parliment yesterday.It's was did'n happen anymore.........

The group had been waiting at the parliament tower for Karpal and as soon as he arrived they surrounded him and started heckling him over his warning to Pemuda Umno yesterday.He accused Umno Youth of having sent him two bullets while debating the Royal Address."Where did the celaka Pemuda Umno fellows get the bullets?" he had asked while pronouncing himself not afraid.The drama started when Karpal was confronted by the 22-member group comprising Selangor Umno Youth members as the MP was making his way into the parliament's tower block at 2.45pm.

The group had been waiting for Karpal since 1.30pm.Noticing the veteran politician, the group surrounded the wheelchair-bound Karpal and demanded that he apologise for remarks made against Umno Youth in the House on yesterday. However, Karpal refused to recant his allegation that the wing had sent bullets in the mail to him recently, as well as using the term “celaka” (damn) to berate the movement.Pakatan Rakyat MPs - Fong Kui Loon (DAP-Bukit Bintang), N. Gobalakrishnan (PKR-Padang Serai) and Lim Lip Eng (DAP-Segambut), who just came back from lunch, went to Karpal’s aid after being informed by parliament staff of the incident.They claimed they were roughed up by the mob, with their bodies pushed and shoved by several Umno members. "One even pulled my tie. At one point, I nearly fell into the fountain," Lim claimed.However, the trio manage to wheel Karpal into the House, while the Umno Youth group continued to heckle and shout at them.Moments later, Liew Chin Tong (DAP-Bukit Bendera) tried to cool down the situation but he was greeted by more shouts."Who are you? Go away," shouted several members of the mob..Karpal's son, Gobind Singh (DAP-Puchong), who sprinted to his father's aid, traded verbal blows with the group. At one point, Gobind and a member of the mob had to be restrained by their respective members to prevent fisticuffs. The situation improved after BN Backbenchers Club (BNBBC) chief Datuk Seri Tiong King Sing appeared and urged the group to disperse. "Please go back and respect the House. We can't have such incidents happening here," he told them.Gombak Umno Youth chief Megat Zulkarnain Omardin, who was part of the mob, told reporters that they are Umno members “willing to die defending the party.”"He (Karpal) must stop insulting the Rulers and the Malays," he said. “Our patience is running out.”Karpal immediately took up the matter in Chambers and demanded to know how the group made it into the compound."What security is the House providing?" he asked speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia, who promised to investigate and assured members that everything was done to protect them."I am disabled but not intimidated by this. The police were there and they just watched," Karpal claimed.Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said not agreeing with Karpal was not an excuse to get physical with him. "We must come up with a ruling that all parliamentarians must be protected," he said.Later, at a Press conference at the Parliament lobby, Karpal remained defiant despite the scare. “I maybe in a wheelchair but I will not be cowed or intimidated by anyone,” the MP dubbed the Tiger of Jelutong said. The Press conference was also attended by Pakatan Rakyat leaders and members. Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and DAP parliamentary leader, Lim Kit Siang were at Karpal's side.The MP for Bukit Gelugor also declared he would not apologise for the terms he had used while debating the Royal Address yesterday.“There is no question of apology," he said. "They abused and threatened me and insisted I apologise. I said that was out and told them back off. They were becoming menacing and they looked like they were ready to hit me."Karpal likened the group antics as to that of brazen gangsters. “As an MP, I have duties which I will carry out without fear,” he said.Karpal also criticised parliament security. “Each time we start the sitting, there is a motion by the Home Minister to ensure that members have safe passage to parliament and are safe from any disturbances while here. How could they allow them to enter the parliament compound? Where is the security?” he asked.Despite the incident, Karpal did not lose his sense of humour. “Singh is King. I should be paid royalty for promoting the movie (the Bollywood movie). I will share the royalty with you all (looking at the press),” he quipped.Karpal had twice referred to the title of the movie in passing as a way of reinforcing his credentials as a fearless man.Opposition leader, Anwar said he was disappointed with the uncultured behaviour of the Umno Youth members. “I demand fast action from the authorities that MPs are safe and their security assured,” he said. Lim said this was the first time the Parliament history that such an incident had occurred. “It is shameful and outrageous. It is in violation of parliament sanctity. This shows how ugly Malaysian politics have become,” he said.Lim called on Umno Youth Chief Datuk Seri Hishamuddin Hussein and Umno president Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi to publicly apologise for this outrage

Politik Perak......

2009-02-19T22:07:00.000-08:00

Politik di negeri perak tidak ada penghujungnya seperti telur di hujung tanduk.
Saya merasa amat pelik dan kecewa apabila YB … telah melarangkan 7 orang Exco termasuk Menteri besar Perak Datuk Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir daripada menghadiri sesi DUN Perak selama 18 bulan manakala enam Exco berkenaan digantung selama 12 bulan daripada menghadiri sesi DUN.Sebenarnya beliau tidak boleh mengambil keputusan sebegini tanpa menghadiri ke sesi Dewan Rakyat kerana Hakim juga membuat keputusan dimakamah bukan di Office Ini menunjukan bahawa beliau bermotif Politik.
Semalam 19/2/2009 kompunan parti BN Termasuk Pemuda MIC Negeri Perak dan juga Badan badan NGO Membuat Laporan polis terhadap Speaker YB Sivakumar itu biar undang undang buat keputusan.Saya agar Sediwara politik Perak akan Selesai secepat mungkin seterusnya memfokuskan masalah Rakyat di Negeri Perak.

Two by-elections: One MP dies, one rep quits

2009-02-09T06:13:00.001-08:00

The country will face two by-elections within the next 60 days after a Member of Parliament (MP) in Perak died, while a Kedah assemblyman quit -- both on Monday.
Bukit Gantang MP Roslan Shaharum of PAS died of a heart attack on Monday morning, while Bukit Selambau assemblyman V. Arumugam of PKR quit his seat and his position on the Kedah executive council in the afternoon.
Arumugam, the sole Indian Pakatan Rakyat state executive councillor in Kedah, resigned amidst allegations linking him to a “marriage scandal.” He won the Bukit Selambau state seat in the March 8 general election last year as an independent, then subsequently joined PKR.
He was said to have informed PKR adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim of his decision in a discreet meeting in Ipoh on Sunday.
Arumugam was the Domestic, Trade and Consumer Affairs, Siamese Community, Unity, Estate Workers and Indian Community Affairs committee chairman.
Kedah Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Azizan Abdul Razak said that Arumugam has tended his resignation letter to the Sultan of Kedah’s office on Monday.
Arumugam was said to be under a lot of pressure to defect and had even lodged a police report on threats that he allegedly received.
Azizan said that he knew that Arumugam had personal problems but he did know the details.
He said that the state exco would be reshuffled in March and he would name someone to fill Arumugam’s post then. Until then, he himself would assume the portfolio temporarily.
“The seat is allocated to PKR thus we will select a PKR assemblyman for the seat. If PKR does not want the seat, we will then offer it to other Pakatan Rakyat assemblymen,” he said.
In BATU GAJAH, Roslan's death would pave the way for yet another by-election.
“Once we receive official notification of his death by the Dewan Rakyat Speaker (Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia), we will have a special meeting to discuss when to call for a by-election,” Election Commission chairman Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Yusof told The Star's Malay portal, mStar.
The Bukit Gantang and Bukit Selambau by-elections would make it four by-elections to be held since the 12th general election last March.
The first was in Permatang Pauh last year when its Member of Parliament Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Ismail stepped down to make way for her husband, now Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, to contest.
Anwar won the seat, which marked his return to Parliament after a decade.
The second was in Kuala Terenganu in January following the death of its MP Datuk Razali Ismail last Nov 28.
PAS candidate Mohd Abdul Wahid Endut won the seat, beating Barisan Nasional candidate Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh and independent Azharuddin Mamat @ Adam.
The Bukit Gantang constituency has three state assembly seats under it: Trong, Kuala Sapetang and Changkat Jering, whose assemblyman Mohd Osman Mohd Jailu quit PKR last week to become an independent.
The Pakatan Rakyat alliance is already gearing up for the by-election, with Perak DAP chief Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham suggesting former Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin as the ideal candidate.
“I believe Nizar is a symbolic figure in view of the present circumstances in which the state government has been toppled by the Barisan Nasional through an undemocratic and unconstitutional way.
“It is an opportunity for the people of Perak, hopefully through their peers in Bukit Gantang, to express what is in their heart -- whether they will accept the power-grab by Barisan.
“This is the message we want the people of Bukit Gantang to express,” he said before briefing Perak DAP members on the latest developments in the state on Monday.
Barisan wrested the state back from Pakatan last week after three assemblymen quit from their parties (including Mohd Osman from Changkat Jering), and a fourth defected back to Umno from PKR.
While both Barisan and Pakatan hold 28 seats each in the 59-seat state assembly, the three said they would remain independent but pledged their support to Barisan.
This led to the Sultan of Perak, Sultan Azlan Shah, to declare that Barisan had the majority and allowed it to form the state government.
Ngeh said Nizar was well accepted by Malays, Chinese, Indians and orang asli (aborigines).
“Nizar is an efficient leader. I personally believe that he will get full support from the people,” he said.
However, Ngeh said the Perak DAP would accept and support any candidate recommended by PAS.
“There may be other reasons, strategies and plans that PAS may have. We will respect and go full force to assist and support its candidate,” he said.
Heart problemsMeanwhile, according to family members and the police, the 50-year-old Roslan had sent his car to a car-wash near his home in Changkat Larang near here when he complained of chest pains.
He borrowed a bicycle from one of the car-wash workers to go to the nearest pharmacy.
His body was found at a slip road by passersby at 11:15am, Batu Gajah OCPD ACP Najib Mohamad said.
Roslan, who leaves behind a wife and 11 children, was formerly the human resource director of Perak Economic Development Corporation.
Last July, he was named chairman of Perak’s education foundation, Yayasan Perak.
According to Roslan's daughter Fatimah, 21, the whole family had been in Cameron Highlands for a family outing over the weekend when her father received a call on Sunday evening.
He was summoned to a meeting at the home of the former mentri besar Nizar, who has refused Sultan Azlan Shah’s call for him to step down.
“He was there until 1.30 in the morning, and left home at 10am,” Fatimah said.
His wife Safiah Harun, 50, said Roslan had collapsed once about a month ago on an official visit to Taiwan because of a heart problem.
The funeral will be held at 6pm Monday at his kampung (village) in Changkat Larang, she said.
In the March 8 general election last year, Roslan had polled 20,015 votes against Abdul Azim Mohd Zabidi’s (Barisan Nasional) 18,449 votes.
The third candidate was an independent, M. Morgan, who got 872 votes.

MIC Youth wants independent probe into Kugan’s death

2009-01-23T01:10:00.003-08:00

KUALA LUMPUR: MIC Youth on Friday called for an independent inquiry into the death of suspected car thief A. Kugan.
Its coordinator T. Mohan said the inquiry would be able to shed light on what had happened. The 22-year-old Kugan died in police custody on Tuesday after being detained for five days.
He was being held under a two-week remand order to facilitate investigations into several luxury car thefts.
Mohan also denied claims that Kugan’s family had “barged” into the Serdang Hospital mortuary on Tuesday night to look at his body.
“In fact, it was the hospital authorities who gave permission for the family to identify the body,” he said, adding that family members were shocked to see the injuries on the body.
Mohan denied Selangor police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar’s allegation that the family had “tampered” with Kugan’s remains during the incident.
“DCP Khalid seems to have jumped the gun by shifting blame to family members when the actual culprits ... are still free,” he said.
According to the post-mortem report, Kugan died because he had liquid in his lungs. It is however not known what caused this.
MIC Youth division leaders throughout the country have lodged more than 25 reports at various police stations urging an investigation into Kugan’s death as well as for action to be taken against Khalid.
The state police chief had earlier vowed that there would be no cover-up in police investigations into the death.
Meanwhile, Klang MP Charles Santiago criticised Khalid for trying to protect his officers and for claiming that Kugan had died of breathing difficulties.
“I have watched the video recording of Kugan taken at the mortuary and there were severe marks on his body, deep cuts on his wrists and bruises on his legs,” the DAP politician claimed.
Santiago said this was not the first case of police detainees being abused or of custodial death.

Three-state-exco-members-dropped-from-penang-pkr-line-up

2009-01-22T21:53:00.000-08:00

Three Penang state exco members - Deputy Chief Minister Mohammad Fairus Khairuddin, Law Choo Kiang and Abdul Malik Abul Kassim — have been dropped from their Penang PKR positions.
Balik Pulau division chief Dr Mansor Othman, Deputy Speaker Tan Hock Leong and state PKR election director Mustafa Kamal Mohd Yusoff will reportedly replace them in the Penang PKR leadership.
Certain Penang state exco members from PKR have been embroiled in controversy in recent weeks.
A PKR source told me the removal from state leadership positions means they will be unlikely to contest in the next general election.
It is part of a “national shake-up of the party” ahead of a national PKR convention in February to discuss internal party matters, he said. “We are reorganising at all levels throughout the country.”

PRESIDENT OBAMA SPEECH

2009-01-20T17:54:00.000-08:00

We are glad to wish congratulation to Mr President Barack Obama is the 44th President of the United States.

MIC Youth

(01-20) 09:21 PST WASHINGTON -- Text of President Obama's inaugural address on Tuesday, as prepared for delivery and released by the Presidential Inaugural Committee.OBAMA: My fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because we the people have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebears, and true to our founding documents.So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.We remain a young nation, but in the words of scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted - for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn.Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed.Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do.Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions - who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works - whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. And those of us who manage the public's dollars will be held to account - to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day - because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control - and that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous. The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our gross domestic product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on our ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart - not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our founding fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience's sake. And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more.Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.We are the keepers of this legacy. Guided by these principles once more, we can meet those new threats that demand even greater effort - even greater cooperation and understanding between nations. We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan. With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the specter of a warming planet. We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus - and non-believers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace.To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect. To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West - know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy. To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains. They have something to tell us today, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages. We honor them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service; a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves. And yet, at this moment - a moment that will define a generation - it is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter's courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent's willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.This is the price and the promise of citizenship.This is the source of our confidence - the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed - why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath.So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. In the year of America's birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:"Let it be told to the future world ... that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive...that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet (it)."America, in the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.The Associated Press

Hindus upset over board’s interference in procession

2009-01-19T18:33:00.000-08:00

GEORGE TOWN: The Hindus in Penang are unhappy with the Penang Hindu Endowment Board’s interference in the organising of the silver chariot procession on Thaipusam eve.
Hindu Action Network chairman G. Mugunthan said yesterday that from the public feedback he received, the Hindus were “disturbed and uncomfortable” with the board’s interference in the running of the procession by the Nattukotai Chettiar Temple trustees.
“The Chettiar community has been doing a fine job organising the procession for over 100 years in a professional way,” he said.
United Hindu Religious Council deputy president A.K. Suppayah, who was the board’s assistant secretary for 21 years, claimed that the board did not have the locus standi to interfere.
“What powers does the board have to encroach into the affairs of the trustees?” he asked.
He said the chariot procession was the prerogative of the Chettiar community here “because it is their own function.”
It was reported yesterday that the organisers of the Thaipusam procession would meet Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng over a proposal that the silver chariot make a stop at the Sri Maha Mariamman Temple in Queen Street on Feb 7.
