MIC President Samy Vellu accused Hindraf national coordinator R.S Thanenthiren of conspiring to keep Hindraf 5, detained under Malaysian draconian internal security act, in prison so that he could collect donation and be the undisputed leader of the illegal organization, according to Makkal Osai Tamil daily.
“Hindraf leaders could have discussed with MIC on their demands for Indian community”
“Hindraf leaders could have discussed with MIC on their demands for Indian community”
Did they tell us (MIC) about their demonstration?”
“We have 600,000 members. We would have sent 50,000 people if at all they (Hindraf) have invited us. I would have personally gone for the demonstration”, said Samy Vellu.
Samy seems to be contradicting to himself in the speech. While condemning Hindraf Leaders of seeking personal publicity, at the same time he said MIC will continue to voice for the release of Hindraf 5.
Samy also revealed that Thanenthiren has contacted him for the first time on September 16, 2008 using the phone # 019 410 5283, when he was returning to Kuala Lumpur from Ipoh.
“Why must he talk to me? Isn’t he a great leader?”
“He thought that I will say: getting Hindraf 5 leaders release is difficult. Nothing is difficult for me. I get involve in things that can be resolved and not in thing that can’t be resolved”.
Samy continued his tirade against Thanenthiren, “He wants me to fail in my endeavor. He is behaving like an army general making public announcements but a time will come for him to apologize to the Indian community standing on his knee.”
“Yesterday, they held a candle light procession forgetting that it will affect the Hindraf 5”.
Samy ended his speech with his usual style quoting a great Hindu sage Thirunavukarasar, “naamarkum kudiyelam namanai anjom. We aren’t afraid of anyone”.
“A brave man dies only once but a coward dies hundred times.”
Now! who is the coward and who is the brave man?
