MIC representing Malaysian Indians

I was not surprised over the statement made by MIC President, Samy Vellu that MIC is the sole representative of the Indian community as reported in Malaysiakini today.

As much as he realised that they had ignored the electronic media in GE 2008, he seems to have to have had a memory lapse in the sense that he has forgotten that the voting pattern transcended beyond the racial lines.

Add the fact that there are more Indian MPs in People's Alliance compared to the National Front. Perhaps the People's Alliance's Indian MPs need to form an ad hoc committee to raise Indian issues as UMNO is currently playing the Malay unity card.

I do hope that all MPs regardless of race and religion would stand up to defend their all communities in their respective communities.
