KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 (Bernama) -- The MIC is not keen on any debate at
this point in time, as it would neither solve an issue nor benefit the
Indian community, said party secretary-general Datuk S. Murugesan.
He said, what the Indian community currently expected was more beneficial and concrete action to uplift their living standard, and less talk from their leaders.
"All these debates might sound exciting but how it will help the man in the street is still debatable," he said here today.
Furthermore, he said, the party felt there was no point in engaging in debates with Indian opposition leaders who did not even command support from the Indian community, or represent the voice of the majority.
"Neither DAP nor PKR are Indian majority parties although they have Indian MPs (members of parliament) and assemblymen. These MPs and assemblymen have no voice within their own parties," added Murugesan.
He was asked to comment if there was a need for debates on Indian issues involving certain parties and non-governmental organisations.
