Also he added that only BN could guarantee a better socio-economic well-being for them. To vote for BN or not, is our right. No one including Najib can warn our community not to go against the ruling BN. BN had its way for the last 50 years and has failed indians miserably. Its about time others are given an opportunity to show their capabilities. Our future at present seems better with those who are making true efforts to improve the lives of indians rather than those who have evidently and openly marginalised and oppressed the indians. Those who “staged street demonstrations” are there after exhausted efforts for improvements and changes, failed. The accusations "Of not using proper chanels" time after time is an absolute lie. If someone in the ruling party had taken an interest to read the numerous complaints and letters sent to the officials/politicions the street demonstration would not have taken place today. On the demolision of temples Najib said "That was wrong on their part. We are sorry for that". Well in a country that practices sensitivity towards religion this apology comes too late. In fact the damage has been done. To date "body snatching" is still taking place. Indian students are being abused at national schools, with the common statement by the government that there has been a "misunderstanding". Tamil school students remain the under previllaged and poverty very evident. Our patience has run out. The government was lucky the indians only chose to demonstrate in a peaceful manner on Nov 25th. For those who had seen the manner of the temple distructions the heartache and anger would have been sufficient and understandable had there been riots or violent clashes against the government/authorities as a result. So Mr Najib, after having done all "That you (BN) shouldn't have" and not doing "What you (BN)should have " Don't come telling us what to do, let alone WARN us. Another “dirty politics” towards Election
Najib’s statement in Malaysiakini: “While promising several goodies for the Indian community, Deputy Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak at the same time today warned the community not to go against the ruling BN.” Also he added that only BN could guarantee a better socio-economic well-being for them.

Time to feast on these crabs. Remove BN from our sights and go for a change. I would rather bet for the current opposition, even if it is just a term. Better than continue voting for a government that not only cannot deliver, but also promoting extremism and theft.

My statement is more of “fundamental desire” than an operational strategy. Without open contest for political office and vigorous selection into civil service, we simply cannot have a competent nation. That is why we are increasing falling behind and eventually even the Malays will feel the pinch. This political dominance based on race to provide the Malay security is a complete misnomer. Singapore has nothing; they don’t even have enough land, sand and water. Today it has offered to buy Citigroup, Merlyn Lynch and UBS. Ahpek,

There are plenty of 'smart' Indians but non wanted to 'expose' S.V. because when TDM was around, plenty of goodies were given, but they forgot S.V. wanted all for himself and his cronies. Only when the hard core poor Indians couldnot take it anymore and out came Hindraf, now these smart Indians are jumping onto the wagon. I only hope that now the opportunity is here, take it and make sure the community really gain out of it! Like Anba said, his second liners are still in MIC, they will continue where he has left off, same story. Like the crab story my many Indian friends used to tell me.
