Hindraf HRP back on the streets. UMNO can no longer go on cheating the Indians unchallenged.

At 11.00am about 200 HRP, Hindraf,supporters with representatives from Kedah, Penang, Perak, Selangor, K.L, N.Sembilan and Johor, were in attendance.
Also present were two FRU water cannons, two trucks of FRU riot policemen two trucks of light strike force and about 100 civil and uniformed policemen.
We were not allowed anywhere even near the Parliament gates as we were blocked by the riot police. Only four of us were invited and that too to only the Parliament gates to hand over our 750 page Memorandum containing our seven page letter to Prime Minister Najib Razak, dated 15/6/2010 48 students result slips, and 12,639 Petition signatures as at 15/6/2010.
But we instead insisted that the Prime Minister’s Representative come down to meet us as we were not allowed to go anywhere near Parliament and had to wait at the junction between the main road and the road leading to Parliament. There were two separate road blocks in the one hundred meters or so on the road leading to Parliament itself. The UMNO fear of Hindraf! As usual UMNO sent their ASP police Indian mandore to talk to us so that any quarrel, arrest or arguments would as usual become an Indian and Indian affair as UMNO had successfully been doing in the last 53 years. In the meantime we proceeded to brief the press on the contents of the seven page letter to Prime Minister Najib Razak. At this juncture HRP & Hindraf banners were unfurled with the words “1 MALAYSIA! KOSONG !!!, 10A, 11A, 12A& 13A! TAK DAPAT BIASISWA., INIKAH 1 MALAYSIA!, HAK MASY INDIA DITINDAS, JANGAN ANIAYA PELAJAR CEMERLANG INDIA, JANGAN KECAIKAN CITA- CITA KAMI, CITA-CITA KAMI BERHARGA., JANGAN TINDAS PELAJAR CEMERLANG INDIA, BERI HAK KAMI, KAMI PELAJAR CEMERLANG, WHAT ELSE YOU NEED FOR US TO BE QUALIFIED?, KATA MERITOKRASI! TETAPI BUKAN UNTUK MASY INDIA., MANA BIASISWA KAMI?, KAMI  ANAK  MALAYSIA,
Also “Memo to P.M. Najib Razak at Parliament 15/6/10. Abolish STPM: One Malaysia, One Exam, One Matriculation. HRP & Hindraf Makkal Sakthi”
“Prime Minister: Why Deny Top Indian Students JPA Scholarships, Study Loans, Matriculations, University & Critical Courses.”
“Abolish STPM 1 Pre-U Malaysia HRP & Hindraf.”
After we had repeatedly refused to go up (as only four were allowed), to the Parliament gates Prime Minister Najib’s Officer in charge of Special Functions (Pegawai Tugas-Tugas Khas Perdana Menteri) Dato’ Ghazali Ibrahim was forced to come down to where we were.
Even then he stood at a distance waiting for us to come to him but we refused to. To us we have to break the UMNO “tuan” and “kuli” mindset and send the message to these UMNO supremacist that we are not the Indian mandores that UMNO has been so used to dealing with in the last 53 years.
The trademark Hindraf & HRP song Tholvi Nelaiyana Ninaithal was sung by HRP and Hindraf members.
Finally the UMNO Dato’ come to us and introduced himself. We asked for his business card but he said he did not have one. P. Uthayakumar had asked Dato Ghazali if the Prime Minister or the Higher Education Minister or the Secretary General or the Deputy Secretary General of the Higher education Ministry would see us today as per our letter to the Prime Minister dated 11/6/10 to which he replied in the negative.
P. Uthayakumar then briefed him on the contents of the Memorandum despite the Dato saying never mind. We reminded him that we had given the UMNO led Malaysian government hundreds of previous memorandums over the last 20 years and nothing happens after that. We wanted action. P. Uthayakumar then asked for an urgent meeting to discuss our said Memorandum within one week either with the Prime Minister, Higher Education Minister, the aforesaid Secretary General or his Deputy the to which Dato’ Ghazali said he “would try”. At this juncture HRP and Hindraf National Adviser N. Ganesan suggested that in that case we shall not hand over the Memorandum today but at the meeting which he may have felt may not be honoured by UMNO.
After some consultation we handed over the Memorandum but insisted on an urgent meeting within one week as the top students would have to go to Universities failing which we would come back to Parliament for an answer.
Supporters then shouted Hindraf and was responded with “Valga” (long life) and HRP and Hindraf “Manitha Urimai and “Valga”.
S. Jayathas then led shouts of “ Jangan aniaya penuntut-penuntut India”, Satu Pre U, Satu Malaysia, Manushkan STPM, Kami tuntut biasiswa JPA”.
The Dato’ shoke hands with us but we made it very formal as in our minds we are most likely to be cheated again by UMNO.
Later P. Uthayakumar told reporters that this top students denied higher education and scholarships and the scores of the critical Indian problems is because of the very some UMNO government ruling for 53 long years in a row without a break in the chain. P. Uthayakumar reiterated that while HRP and Hindraf is committed to ending the 53 year UMNO/BN rule in Malaysia, we are not going to trust PKR, DAP and PAS by giving them a blank cheque to Putrajaya. We simply do not trust PKR, DAP and PAS with the welfare, well being and future of the Malaysian Indians as they have no history of seriously championing even the critical Indian issues. But they are instead only interested in the Indian votes. We would be the third force to check and balance PKR, DAP and PAS when they get to Putrajaya.
The latest being zero serious questioning, Emergency Motion or other Motions to end this 53 year racist, segregationist and supremacist education policy in Malay-sia. But both UMNO and also PKR, DAP and PAS with a breeze rightly did so for Gaza Flotalia issue PKR, DAP and PAS top leadership refused to call for a Royal Commission of Inquiry. All because almost all of the “victims” and aggrieved students are the poor Malaysian Indians.
And neither did PKR, PAS and DAP’s 11 Members of Parliament Indian mandores want to champion the above as they are bound by and have to “kow tow” to their Tuan Anwar Ibrahim, Towkay Lim Kit Siang and they do not have their parties mandate to speak up seriously on Indian issues. These PKR, PAS and DAP Indian mandores are mere showpieces like how MIC and PPP MP mandores had been showpieces for UMNO in the last 50 years.
These Indian MP mandores may fear losing the 80-90% Malay muslim and Chinese voters who had voted them in. They are over conscious not to be branded “racist” “extremist” or pro- Indian by their 80-90% Malay and Chinese voters.
This yet again reaffirms our Project 15/38 to create 15 Indian majority Parliamentary and 38 state seats to fight our own battle at the political front as even PKR, DAP and PAS is a lost hope for us.
For a start we have started with the opening of our Bilek gerakan in Tawan Puteri Wangsa/ Tebrau in Johor in March 2010, Tawan Sri Andalas/ Kota Raja in Selangor on 16/5/2010 and Tawan Prai/ Batu Kawan this weekend on the 20^th of June 2010 in addition to our HQ in Bangsar and to be followed by the other frontline states of Perak, N. Sembilan, Kedah and Pahang.
We have had four Think Tank training sessions and the fifth this weekend to train our very own MPs’ and State Assemblyman who would champion Indian causes without fear or favour or fear, upsetting 80 to 90% of their Malay and Chinese voters.
Today’s event ended peacefully.
But the 100 odd police presence, Water Cannons, FRU, Riot Police we thought was a very nice way the Polis Raja Di Malay-sia get to spend their RM 1 Billion allocation in the 2010 Budget.
Most of the HRP and Hindraf supporters from Kedah, Penang, Perak, Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Negeri Sembilan, and Johor, then adjourned to the HRP HQ at Bangsar.
At this meeting we finalized our next action plan in anticipation of UMNO doing zero to address this very serious higher education problem. Our next action plan will be revealed in our posting tomorrow.
