Full with grandpa and grandma

As expected, Cheras Badminton hall was packed with the paid attendees not the original MIC man. They was welcomed with the inspirational songs and PM and his wife with the garland.

As expected too, PM says we give public holiday on Thaipusam for KL and Putrajaya. Other than that all other talk was rhetoric. PM said, govt will do his best to overcome the poverty among the Malaysians. But every one who attended the gathering knew it's just a political gimmick not more than that. Under the RMKe 9, no initiative to overcome the poverty among the Indian community yet he is saying govt will do his best. Am I that stupid to accept the statement boldly?

Almost every newspaper mentioned that the "organiser says the crowd was 21 thousand" and Tamil Nesan add there were a few thousands waiting outside the hall. Malaysiakini reported 15K while Sun says 10K. For me it's a good joke b'coz, everyone knew, Cheras Badminton hall have a seat for 3K and if we used the badminton coat then plus minus we can add another few thousands and definitely the hall cannot take for 21K. I would say the crowd was not more than 10K and it was full with grandpa and grandma. So does it a success for Mr.Semi Value to say MIC has a support from Indian community?

The community are hoping for the space to breathe not a limited public holiday. Giving a public holiday in KL and Putrajaya doesn't carry any meaning for those who are living under poverty. In fact if govt didn't give any holiday also, Indians are going to get the annual leave and went for the celebrations.

The most joking part was, Semi Value was damn happy and said" we was fighting for this from 1986 and now our dreams come true", which he refuse to accept the fact, all this changes is happening because the Indians struggle through HINDRAF. Indians should not forget about Nov 25 and continue the struggle for the release of 5 brothers and welcome back our brother who is alone in overseas.
