Yet again this MIC style politics but this time by the Penang DAP DCM II Indian mandore on his Towkay Kapitan Lim Guan Eng’s instructions (refer Makkal Osai 18/1/10 at page 6). This Penang DCM II Indian mandore makes pledges of peanuts RM 1.75 Million for the year 2010 for all the 28 Tamil schools in Penang and said he would go around dishing out this RM 1.75 Million to the respective schools and would probably get 28 bites at this the “wayang kulit” cherry. This is if this RM 1.75 Million actually filters down to these Tamil schools. As for the year 2009 budget of RM 1.5 was promised Million for these 28 Tamil schools. We doubt even 30% of the same reached these 28 Tamil schools in Penang. If Kapitan Lim Guan Eng had been transparent we would have known the truth. But he and the other PKR Indian Exco mandores in Selangor, PAS Indian Exco mandore in Kedah and the earlier DAP Indian Exco mandore in Perak all sidestep the real issues befalling on the Tamil schools ie land for all 28 Tamil schools in Penang, 98 in Selangor and 58 in Kedah is being denied by the Tuans and Towkay leadership of Penang, Selangor and Kedah
As they are powerless to get their Tuans and Towkay to alienate land to all these Tamil schools (which is 100% in their powers to alienate further to Section 76 of the National Land Code) so they end up playing these sort of MIC style wayang kulit peanut politics.
We see very little difference between this PR and the UMNO government ie no permanent solution but only temporary and piecemeal “showmanship by these the showcase Indian DCM II and Exco mandores.
