M Ramachandran, from the party's Kulim division, said the government was not offering enough
opportunities to the Indian community despite their sacrifices for the nation over the last 150 years.
“We are citizens of this nation and they (the ruling party) come to us for votes. But what do we get in return? We are only looked at when it's election time but after that we are forgotten.
“We are labelled with all sorts of names, so why stay here? We need to migrate to another country which offers equal opportunity to all,” he told the MIC annual general assembly here.
Meanwhile, Sri Serdang MIC division delegate K Subramaniam took a swipe at Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak's 1Malaysia concept.
He asked how can the concept be achieved when racial segregation still exists in the country.
“The PM is going around with the 1Malaysia slogan but we are still being differentiated using the bumiputera and non-bumiputera status. How can you achieve 1Malaysia with this?” he added.
Subramaniam was also cynical about Najib's promise that students who excelled in their SPM examinations would be entitled for Public Service Department grants to further their studies.
“My question now is will they allow Indian students to get more than 9A's after this. I doubt it very much,” he said.
===================================================
The Indians have always been sidelined. You know it, I know it. The Chinese have been treated decently. And here we are fighting for equality and justice and in the same line, condemning the Indians.
Yes, as long as the Indians follow and worship MIC and its dogs, they will remain as they are....a minority group that does not pose any threat of any kind and will be treated like 'kelings' by both the Malays and the Chinese.
Hundreds of thousands have already migrated...Indians or Chinese? And what the heck is wrong if Indians find a better place somewhere else? The Chinese have already found a 'better' place and the people have their mouths zipped.
But when Indians wish to find a 'better' place...look at the outburst. They are labeled as traitors by so-called freedom-fighters who will turn this country around and are so certain that all races will be equal.
It will take 50....perhaps 100 years before we could possibly see any semblance of freedom, equality and justice for all....by which time, the Chinese population will equal that of the Indians....then we might just see some kind of freedom and justice for all.
Sometimes when I read some comments I have a good laugh at those morons who say things like....'bring them on' and whatnot.
Those who wish to to continue the struggle for freedom must do just that....fight for freedom and not pass any unwarranted remarks. What is the point of fighting for freedom and justice for all and in the process pass racist remarks....is not that called an irony? Perhaps paradox is a better word.
Malaysia-Today will become a laughing stock if these knuckleheads keep posting their birdbrained comments in it.
I do hope the Admin puts an end to juvenile posts and comments....yes, freedom of speech and all but sometimes you need to stop these naive comments to save your blog and maintain it as an intellectual platform - free of kids talking cock for recreation.
MT should remain as a place for serious debates, posts and comments. Everything has its limits...even freedom of speech.
....anon
