(Star Metro 5/1/2010 at page M 10). All Janagy wants for the new year is a roof over her head. This is the height of the UMNO state sponsored poverty in Malaysia where a family cannot even afford to pay even RM 250.00 per month rentals as her husband earns only RM 700.00 as a security guard.
To solve these Indian problems Umno would never offer them the 10 acres land in schemes for the poor as in Felda, Felcra, Risda, Fama Agropolition etc., which largely only goes to the malays.
UMNO intends the Indians to live with crumbs and never mind if the lfes are miserable. They are Indians after all. Just look at the misery in Janagy’s face and the look on her children’s faces.
HRP demands that the government implements minimum wage and allocates agricultural lands to all the poor and dispossessed as in the Felda schemes.
