MIC CWC member KP Samy believes that all BN component parties should work together and avoid internal squabbles.
PETALING JAYA: MIC Central Working Committee (CWC) member KP Samy has urged P Waythamoorthy to work hand in hand with Barisan Nasional component parties.
Waythamoorthy was named a deputy minister in the Prime Minister’s Department in Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak’s post-GE13 cabinet. He will be made a senator before that.
Samy claimed that even BN component parties such as MIC, PPP and Gerakan had thrown their support behind Hindraf during the rally in 2007 which caused a political tsunami in the 2008 elections.
“Waythamoorthy has to admit that we were all behind them, I personally bailed 130 participants who were arrested during the rally,” he said.
“Now he has to tow PM Najib Tun Razak’s line and work together with us for the betterment of BN on the whole,” he added.
Samy said he was happy that Waythamoorthy was chosen by the PM and had no qualms about it.
“I myself am a Hindraf activist and Waythamoorthy is my good friend, I have faith that he will work together with us without any pride and prejudice,” he said.
Samy also cleared the air on rumours that he had tendered his resignation because he was not given a senatorship.
“I was clearly misunderstood. I had never looked forward to any positions or titles all my years in MIC, until now I’m only known as KP Samy,” he said.
“The main reason I handed in my resignation was to pave the way for the younger generation and for more capable party members.
“But MIC president G Palanivel refused to accept my resignation as he feels I will still be able to perform,” he added.
Full backing for Najib
Samy claimed that all BN component parties have to put their differences aside and work together with the PM to prove their relevance.
“Internal squabbles within BN component parties should be stopped immediately,” he said.
“I believe the PM will appoint those who can perform and the long serving members should step aside for the younger generation,” he added.
Samy also said that the PM was on the right path and he would continue to throw his support behind BN till his last breath.
“No other PM has given this much recognition to the Indian community. I believe he is genuine and the right person to lead the nation,” he said.
“Even if I do not get the senatorship, I will continue to support MIC and BN because I believe I can still help prove their relevance and rake in the support of the people. There is no way I’ll join the opposition,” he added.
The MIC CWC meeting is scheduled for 24 May to gauge the credibility of the current MIC members.
