KUALA LUMPUR, May 17 (Bernama) -- MIC information chief Datuk M. Saravanan wants RTM's radio channel Minnal FM to play a more effective role in uniting the Indian community in the country.
The deputy federal territories minister said the channel could also play another important role of passing information on development from the government to the Indians who had been feeling that they had been neglected.
"Recently, for instance, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak announced a RM100 million allocation to upgrade Tamil schools nationwide.
"It's a big amount....such an amount has never been given before for the purpose, and if the Indian community wish to know more about this, they can phone Minnal FM," he told reporters after officiating at a special Mother's Day concert organised by the radio channel, here, Sunday.
Earlier, in his speech, Saravanan reminded the Indian community to appreciate and respect the role of mothers in bringing up and educating their children to become useful individuals.
