Politickler..tickling the truth

Suddenly got interested into the Malaysian minority group politics that broken into pieces after showing solidarity some two years ago. Why it’s happen? Why Indian’s in Malaysia claims themselves to be marginalised ?

Before throwing any wild allegation or “mandore” for some masters, do  note that I don’t subscribe to any Malaysian political party ideology.

After 50 years , we accused the Barisan Nasional government for marginalizing us with implementation of policies that benefits only certain group of people.  We accused Samyvelu for not doing anything being the sole Cabinet Minister for 28 years.  And now we accused Pakatan Rakyat state government for neglecting or their empty promises?

Alright, we are now fast enough to respond PR State Government’s inaction or their elected representatives been” Mandore” or Puppet but why does this keep happening again and again?

Those who brought us together after 60 years now splited and each of them heading towards their own path by creating confusion among two million Indian’s in Malaysia.

The answer is :

We are here because of ourselves ?

We give excuses , blame others or keep complain while taking our power out of our hands by  of putting ourselves as into the mindset of being a VICTIM? As long as we believe we are the victim, the scenario will not change for centuries to come.

By creating own majority in certain parliamentary or state assembly area the problem will not solve? Probably one or two might get elected but what they can do? Who ever rules the country next will surely find ways to break or realign the constituency ? How we going to handle?

The answer lies within us ? Stop blaming and take absolute responsibilities that Indian Malaysian now sit at bottom because of now ourselves. Stop Cheating or influx ideologies that beyond means or  have no impact. Stop demanding but rather make every Malaysian to lend their hand.

What have we done to correct it? Writing a piece of letter or whacking through emails or blogs or protesting in front of media people alone will not change our situations.

Some of the main problem that Indian’s face are:

a)      No Birth Certificates or Identity Cards

b)      Tamil schools condition inferior compare to other schools or it situated on an illegal land

c)      Hindu temples has no proper land title or been demolished

d)      Graveyard been relocated or no proper land

e)      High crime rate

f)        No progress economically, and many more

Have we initiated something like caucus beyond political lines for each area mainly temples, schools and businesses to discuss problem faced by them and assist to prepare necessary documents?

Have we took up this issues to the relevant Chief Ministers, Ministers, Exco Members or Member of Parliaments or even initiated ways to put across to the Prime Minister?

What have we done to reduce High Crime Rate among our community?

IF Not then Why are we Blaming Others?

Take Responsibilities.

Never be a blind follower.

The Power is in our Hand.

The phrase “Servant Leadership” was coined by Robert K. Greenleaf in The Servant as Leader, an essay that he first published in 1970. In that essay, he said:

“The servant-leader is servant first… It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions…The leader-first and the servant-first are two extreme types. Between them there are shadings and blends that are part of the infinite variety of human nature.” read more greenleaf.org

For  me , I first heard it from YB Dato’ S K Devamany Deputy Minister at Prime Minister’s Dept during a opening speech when he launched Putera MIC dialog session with university undergratuades at Kuala Lumpur recently. Check out part of his speech at their video below :

One notable point by Greenleaf is that :

The best test, and difficult to administer, is: Do those served grow as persons? Do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become servants? And, what is the effect on the least privileged in society? Will they benefit or at least not be further deprived?“

I believe most of Malaysia wanted their leaders to ensure that as a person each and every Malaysia live as claimed by Greenleaf.

I found the following notes on Servant Leadership and video that may beneficial for those interested to learn more about it.

a) Servant Leadership and The Individual . At page 7 of this pdf file, you will find the meaning of Who is the Servant Leader, i.e :

Becoming a servant-leader begins with the natural feeling that one wants to
serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions. For such people, it will be a later choice to serve—after leadership is established.

b) Overview of Servant Leadership Video :

After complete first round of Citizen Journalist training and couple of videos approved by our sifu, I taught it’s time for myself to have more serious reporting.   After doing some brainstorming, I gave a call to my old friend Mr P Kamalanthan, the MIC Info Chief.

During the interview at 7th Floor MIC HQ, Kamalanathan answered the following questions :

Questions:

1) As a strong supporter of 1Malaysia concept, how do MIC sees return of Malaysian Indian support towards the party?

2) When Malaysia was transformed towards Industrial State lot of Malaysian Indian esp plantation workers  faced sudden lost of Income , cultural shock as a result of migration towards rural area. Most of them end up in slums where gangsterism flourish. How do MIC ensure that transformation of Economy towards High Income Nation will not result loss of Income and not sidelined ?

3) You have said that MIC still number one when comes to Malaysian Indian. What steps has MIC taken to evaluate or overcome poverty which is one of the root cause of increase in street crime among Indians in Malaysia?

4) When OPP3 presented then Prime Minister Mahathir Mohammad targeted to achieve 3% Malaysian Indian equity level by 2010. However, the policy reserve by his successor to 2020. Despite 10 years pass , Malaysian Indian equity hasn’t raise above 1.5% level? Why do you think the cause of this and how do MIC ensure by 2020 this is achieved?

5) The Malaysian Indian population is decreasing , by 2040 Malaysian Indian percentage population is expected around 4-5%. How do MIC prepare itself to in overcoming majorities voices against minorities?

6) How MIC’s counter Cyber Attack – Who funds their activity, what are their main role in promoting MIC’s image to the online community? Has there been any success?

Opps, I had done my first interview and it’s published today.  After the interview MIC Putera had invited myself to few of their functions. Hopefully  could cope up.

After swindling the entire executive system current administrative making mockery of Malaysian Judiciary system. Lately we have seen how the high court overturn most of lower court judgements that not in favour of ruling coalitions.

Kapar MP blasted the executive system for the mockery committed.

North Klang Taxi Stand at Lorong Kepayang was demolished quietly at wee hours on 19th January 2010 without any negotiation with Taxi operators. Earlier Taxi operators together with Kapar Member of Parliament S. Manikavasagam submitted memorandum to Selangor Menteri Besar requesting to hold any planned demolishment.

S. Manikavasagam claimed that Klang Local Council has duped his secretaries whom following up with council officers while he attend a Talk in Johor by promising that no demolisment planned just hours before heavy machinery brought to the spot. Manikavasagam whom met the taxi operators later held a meeting at Klang Council President at his officer with Taxi association representative.

Later that evening , Manikavasagam claimed that his office has received a letter from Selangor Menteri Besar office instructing the Council to hold on their plan to demolish the 30 over years taxi stand.

It is understood that the council planned to move taxi operators to Klang Sentral Bus Terminal some 10 kms away from presence town center. However, Taxi operators claims they can only ferry “Ghost Passengers” should they moved to Klang Sentral as only few buses operate from there and the station management charge extraobitant fees to park our taxies there.

Another temporary alternative site offered by  Klang Council don’t go well with the taxi operator requirement as the suggested area located across busy street and it will effect passengers safety. Further, there we can only park 10 cars while 70 taxies are operating from present place.

The taxi operators whom mostly senior citizen are allowed to operator from present location for next 14 days by the local council to enable effected parties and council identify solutions.

Klang – Lorry transport operator Salapathirao today launched a police report against traffic police officers whom intentionally fired a close rank shoot at his son, S Munisvaran ,25.

In his report he claimed traffic police officer demanded RM200.00 bribe from his son whom ferrying timber from Karak to Westport particularly everyday. He further added that his son and his assistant was asleep near Kemuning toll plaza rest while when the traffic police officer awake them. There isn’t any police check post or Mat Rempit Operation that morning as claimed in today’s Malay news reports.

He lambasted Klang Police Chief for his ignorance and played up the issue as his son attempt to kill the police officer and remanded him for five days. I drove pass my sons lorry and was resting some kilometres away when Munisvaran called me and inform that a policeman was demanding RM200.00 bribe for not closing the lorry doors properly. It’s me whom told Munisvaran to request summon issued. If he is a true law abiding police officer, he could have issued summon on the spot and we could have carried out our routine life after paying the summon.

As traffic police officer refusing to give back my son’s driving license, I told him to leave the place and he shall launch a police report after having good delivered. However, Klang OCPD claim a lorry carrying some 25 tons of timber accelerate and police with high speed motorcycle only manage to hold them about 15 kms away. Does that sound realistic?

“I saw the policeman stop my son’s lorry somewhere near Star Cruise Terminal junction, Pulau Indah” added Salapathirao. He punched my sons before even he could get down. By the time, I stop my lorry and ran to the spot the police officer already fired few shot towards my son. Luckily he escapes the sudden ambush by a policeman. Despite being injured, they demanded us to report to Pandamaran Police Station where they held Munisvaran for almost 3 hours before seeking treatment at Klang General Hospital added father Salapathirao.

Today’s newspaper claimed that Munisvaran was taken to hospital immediately after the shootout. Meanwhile, Kapar Member of Parliament S Manikavasagam says he have all the reason to believe police chief try to cover up his subordinate’s mistake. Who try to kill who? It’s the police officer whom attempt to murder Munisvaran ,but why Munisvaran and his assistant R Anantharajah was arrested?

For a mere RM200.00 , the policeman could have taken Munisvaran’s life . Too Bribe or Not to Bribe? These are the question that may linger among Malaysian now as if you don’t your life at stake. If , we die no one bothers, if a policeman die .. State Funeral, Awards, Pensions, Scholarships, etc. Easy way out, just Bribe and carry on with your daily life. Agree?

Hindraf Chairman P Waythamoorthy release second Malaysian Indian Minority and Human Right Violations Annual Report 2009 at Pravasi Bharatiya Divas (PBD)  International Conference current held at New Delhi, India.

The report  blamed  lopsided development has been facilitated and catalyzed by a system which in Malaysia we have come to call Mandorism. Mandorism’s primary manifestation is the employment by the ruling elite (UMNO at the Federal level and Pakatan at the State level) of the country, of a small layer of the somewhat  successful Indian Malaysian Entrepreneurs, Professionals and Politicians to subjugate the rest of the majority of the Indian Malaysians in the country.  We estimate this group to be a small percentage (we estimate about 0.1% as no reliable statistics are available) of the 2 million ethnic minority Malaysian Indian population They are represented in the various arms of the Government, the various political parties both in Ruling as well as Opposition Coalition whose job it is to impose the
majoritarian rules on the marginalized Indian minority and prevent new rules to address the adverse situation facing the Indian Malaysian poor from being formulated and implemented. Many of these representatives are present here
today as showcases at this Pravasi Bharathiya Divas Conference 2010 . These representatives remain in a state of denial of the large and progressively deteriorating problem afflicting the Indians in Malaysia.

Our other purpose in presenting this annual Minorities and Human Rights report is to show the progress or lack of it from year to year. We presented the first report last year for 2008 which provided some indications of the seriousness of the Minorities and Human Rights problem in Malaysia.This year, we have to sadly say that there have not been any notable improvements in the Minorities or Human Rights situation in the country.

Several incidents in the country relating to demolitions of Hindu Temples, Hindu Burial Grounds and Indian Traditional settlements and Indian squatter settlements and denying state land to the above and also to Tamil schools by the State Governments run by even these Opposition parties, demonstrated the true position of the opposition Political parties and of the few Indian representatives in those parties. The details of these are included in the examples and statistics provided in the 15 categories of Minorities Rights and Human Rights violations.

1. Education

2. Land issues for Public Purposes

6. Suicides

7. Involvement in Crime and extra-judicial killings of Indian suspected criminals

8. Federal Government Poverty Eradication and Social Development Programs and Schemes

Much of the details, specific situations and statistics presented in the details of the violations in each of the categories are from various sources in the public domain. Most of them are from reports in the various Malaysian dailies and the
