Interesting Article from Malaysiainsider on Samy Vellu...

Embattled MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu, whose wish to return to the Cabinet was rejected by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, is playing his final gambit by threatening to withdraw the sole MIC minister.
---
The Malaysian Insider understands Samy Vellu has little support except from party vice-president S. Sothinathan in this gambit which was sparked after Najib rejected all hints last week to make Samy Vellu a senator and put him back into the Cabinet as works minister.
---
Samy Vellu complained to his supporters that if Gerakan president Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon could be made a senator and minister, he should have been accorded the same privilege.
---
Samy Vellu is also unhappy that Selangor Gerakan chief A. Kohilan Pillay has been made a deputy foreign minister, a high-profile post for an Indian.
---
He feels it should have been given to one of his nominees.
---
After failing to get himself re-appointed, Samy Vellu tried to propose two additional deputy ministers posts for Sothinathan and Senator Loga Chitrakalla, according to MIC sources.

  1. aiyo, why should we bother with MIC. This party no longer relevant. Indians have lost their trust with MIC. They only know how to polish & carry Umno's balls. That's why the current illegal Perak govt does not even have a single MIC rep..

    MIC is finished as far as politicaal survival is concerned.

  3. YB - Better spend more time to recruit more members and plans to take back Perak Government. Also more dinner time - happy hours with grass root members to feel part of DAP
