Valuecap’s billion ringgit should be used to bail out Maika Holdings. Indian Mandores in DAP, PKR, PAS and Mandore Dato Subra must rise above politics.

Maika may be wound up (The Star 196/2010 at page N 23). But 66,459 (NST 24/4/10 at page 16) and poor, low income and working class Indians stand to lose millions of ringgit in real teams with this.

Why didn’t any of the 11 Indian PKR, DAP and PAS MP Mandore and their “tuan” Anwar Ibrahim, “Tuan Haji” Hadi Awang, Towkay Lim Kit Siang and their 76 MPs champion the plight of these poor and working class Indians in Parliament, media and in public forums like what they had rightly  done for Aminulrasyid, Teoh Beng Hock Malay muslim BMF Finance, Bank Rakyat, Bank Bumi, Renong, Perwaja, Chinese DTC, Multi Purpose Holdings, etc?

Anwar, Lim Kit Siang and Hadi Awang could have demanded that UMNO use up from the RM 10 billion allocation to buy up under valued shares (NST 12/10/08 at page 1) a sum of RM 2.6 billion at RM 26.00 per original RM 1.00 Maika Shares in 1984. Why not? Because the victims are merely the poor and powerless Indians? Had UMNO allocated prime land, blue chip shares in Island and Penisula, UMW, Sime bank, Maybank, etc like those given out to PNB which grew 38,000% from RM 200 million in 1981 to 76 billion in 2008 so that Maika won’t be wound up.

While UMNO is guilty of racism and supremacy by commission, Anwar Ibrahim, Lim Kit Siang Hadi Awang, their 11 Indian MP mandores and their 76 PKR, DAP and PAS MPs are equally if not more guilty than UMNO because Hindraf had given the political directions and the 90% of the Malaysian Indian community had voted for PKR, DAP and PAS and not UMNO/BN.

So who speaks for the Indian poor and powerless? PKR? DAP? PAS? NGOS”? Bar Council? Indian journalists? Indian elite?

HRP’s Project 15/38 creating and winning in 15 Parliamentary and 38 state seats is the only way forward.
