A farce was in play yesterday in Putra WOrld Trade Centre. MIC president’s dinner with his branch chairmen became a comedy of sort. Normally, a person invited to attend a dinner will have the right to decide when to leave, since a guest is supposed to have the freedom of “come and go”.
But at MIC ‘s dinner yesterday, doors were locked half way to prevent people from leaving. According to the NST today:
Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu’s dinner for branch chairmen yesterday evening turned sour when many began to leave immediately after having their food, an hour before the function was due to end.
A visibly upset Samy Vellu walked around the Dewan Tun Razak Hall at the Putra World Trade Centre and ordered those who were about to leave to sit and wait till the event ended.
He even went outside the hall and corralled those who had been smoking back inside. He then ordered the guards to close the shutters to all the entrances to ensure that no one left the hall.
I think the main actor in this comedy should realise he has overstayed his welcome. No matter how much you force people to remain, it would be futile, if people would not want to support you any more. I think he should at least take a leaf from Dr Lim Keng Yaik, and retire gracefully and let someone else take over.
Otherwise, more of this will happen and it is really disgraceful.. That is the problem when one is holding power for too long.
I really do not know whether I should laugh or sigh at this sort of antic.

I think this is going way beyond being funny anymore. Before this, he opted to “fire” a few Youth leaders because they went over the age limit, and they quit the party with the ultimatum that they will only rejoin after Samy steps down.
But he chooses not to take heed of anything, and goes on to criticise the ex-Youth chief for not carrying out his duties properly.
Every single one of the leaders of the major component parties in Barisan Nasional have realised what a big mess up they have made in GE2008. AAB just announced his “hand-over” plan, OKT is not contesting, and Samy decides to “stay on” to rejuvenate the party.
There is a need for new blood, especially at the helm, if a party is to truly rejuvenate itself. Samy doesn’t seem to realise it.
And now he is acting like a child, frustrated that his guest decided to leave early from his “birthday party”. As funny as this is, it is not funny anymore.

What a coward I feel. No respect for the function and by doing so he is admitting that he is a “sore loser”, so easily swayed by such responses. Poor thing, This is not the trait of a calibre and confident leader!?

Expected behavior from him but he surprised me with his declaration that there will be no succession plan in MIC. The members will choose its next leader.
If this were the case, then this is truly amazing from him.
Respect for democratic process at the end after umpteen years of authoritarian control?

He is like Mahathir….so used to be a dictator…will talk and do anything.
This baboon is a real disgrace to the Indians.
And someone brought out the Maika RM100 million ..lost 17 years ago….he said all are settled.
What settled?
He promised to pay back every sen lost to the shareholders..did not keep his promise…now said all settled.
Such is Samy Vellu….a real sick sick…bastard… snaky man……so similar in character and personality.. like Mahathir….right now.
RM100 million from his own poor race.
At least Tan Khoon Suan went to jail ..for cheating the Malaysian Chinese.
His days are numbered too.

Jeff….the story is that…Samy’s son gambled away the RM100 million..in stocks and shares.
How far it is true…is not important.
The main issue he is the President and he started this idea of Maika……collected slightly more than.. RM100million…..from the rubber tappers…lorry driver assistants….gardeners…all supported him..as Indians..digging every sen of their hard earned money from savings….all supported him…..all are lost…from so call….”bad investments”.
If he had a chance like Mahathir…saving his own son with more than RM1billion…he will do it.
Mahathir took our money from Petronas…….to save his son.
Samy……have no other means….but to take out some of his huge corruption money ..he had accumulate…..to save his own race…from his own son’s failures. He promised to do that..pay back every sen. Thar RM 100million ….is pea nuts to him. He promised to pay……but never deliver.
He does not love the Indians at all.

The Maika case is identical to Harun Idris…..using public funds….to bring in Ali/Bugner boxing match.
Make money…he will pocket it……and put back the public fund. He could do all that… quietly..as he was the Mentri Besar of Selangor.
God is great!!! The event lost money…..so..a cheater like him… had to passed the looses to public funds..taken by him..
This is nothing new….smart guy taking huge sums to play around with stocks and shares….and call that …’investments” That’s downright gambling….and the Indians do not need Samy’s son…to gamble away with their money.
Samy knew all these….terrible sins of his son..keep twisting and turning..until he was cornered and did promise to make good every sen……..with his own money.
He never kept his promise for 17 years.
This Maika issue…will never go away. Harun went to jail for cheating ..using government funds…but…Samy is quite fortunate…Maika will will be considered…a commercial crime.
As long as UMNO is in power..he seems to be quite safe.
Right now….we seems to see some hope and small light at the end of the tunnel…with ACA going all out at the Immigration Dept.
Cases like Samy……perhaps dozens..if not..hundreds……by UMNO members.
But ACA should come out clean..to focus on three people right now…AP queen..Rafidah….Samy and Khairy.
Do justice for Malaysians..and that may carry alot of weight for Dollah’s promise to be…. “People’s PM”…but never for UMNO.
UMNO…no matter what…..must be voted out.

Those umno’s ball carriers are all gone after being used by umnoputra in gaining indepedence from British colonist. They are of no value anymore to umnoputra except use to divide non -Malay citizens within the country. As you probalby know that monsterball, those non malay with fancy titles are given that designation due to the fact they are selling out our rights to umno, not because they are patriot of Malaysia, so it is not hard to know who is the ball carrier in Malaysia.

Samy is protected by some Hindu Gods…he keeps bribing…with them .day and night…with his prayers.
