Gandhi's birthday rings hollow for M'sian Indians

(Malaysiakini) The Human Rights Party Malaysia (HRP) called for the honouring of Mahatma Gandhi's birthday today with a permanent solution and land titles to poor Indian villagers, such as that availed to other communities.

NONE

HRP pro-tem secretary-general P Uthayakumar said, “As a permanent solution, we hereby call for all Indian villages and settlements nationwide to be forthwith granted land titles.”

He took to task both Pakatan Rakyat and BN for systematically “ethnically cleansing” the Indians one by one, by either offering them a token sum of cash or nothing at all without looking into solving the problem.

Uthayakumar also criticised the flats offered the Indians saying they were beyond the means of many in the community.

He pointed out that many were trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty that prevented them from obtaining loans, and found their flats auctioned off and themselves back on the streets when they could not make the monthly instalments.

He further demanded that federal and state governments put a halt to further demolition of Indian villages and settlements that are part of the history of this country.

On an averagem almost every day some Indian poor is served an eviction notice or is evicted from their only homes, said Uthayakumar in an open letter to the government yesterday.

The letter was addressed to Premier Najib Abdul Razak, Federal Territory Minister Abdul Khalid Ibrahim, Selangor Menteri Besar Abdul Khalid Ibrahim, Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng and Kedah Menteri Besar Azizan Abdul Razak.

'Whither allocations for Indians?'

“Unlike for the Indian poor, there are even 507 permanent Chinese new villages with land titles nationwide receiving RM55 million allocation at RM500,000.00 per Chinese village,“ he claimed.

NONE

He alleged that there are similarly thousands of permanent villages with land titles for the Malay, Orang Asli, Kadazan and Iban poor.

He lamented that to this day the Indian poor do not have such equivalent benefits, saying they had been denied land titles from the start.

He was equally critical of the Pakatan Perak government that he said granted land for up to 110,000 Malays, Chinese and Orang Asli “but had conveniently forgotten the Indian community”.

He added that this was only the “tip of the iceberg” for titles given to the other communities.

“But a similar permanent solution ...has never been granted to the poor Indians. Why? Why are they are systematically “ethnically cleansed?” he asked.

“Why one rule for the poor Indians and another for the poor Malays, Orang Asli, Iban, Kadazan and Chinese? Why take advantage and bully these poor Indians who are powerless and helpless (economically and politically)?”

Uthayakumar claimed that small Indian farms and settlements were demolished by the Kedah state government, and reprised the saga of the demolition of Kg Buah Pala in Penang.

He also quoted several incidents of Indians being victimised of their homes although they had the rights to the land that they were occupying.

Najib, clean up Islamophobia in Malaysia first

By P Waytha Moorthy,

Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak should look into his own backyard at how the minority Malaysian Indians and the non-Malays suffer from Islamophobia through BTN, Jakim, Rela, the judiciary, Perkasa and practically every organ of the government institution against the minorities in Malaysia.

Coerced sharia law onto non-Muslims, forceful conversion, statelessness, body-snatching, direct insults similar to the cow head incident that prevails through state-sponsored institutions in Malaysia are classic examples of Islamophobia that affect the tenet of human rights in Malaysia for minorities that needs to be rectified and curtailed before Najib goes to the US to preach how to assist the Barack Obama on Islamophobia.

There are ample examples for this as per the Everest Moorthy, Indra Gandhi and Baggarama cases, the slurs against non-Muslim students by the headmistress and the latest on the issuance of a derogatory statement by a BTN official against non-Muslims.

All the above happens without a wink of an eye against the minorities in Malaysia and even more accommodated by the government, yet here we have the premier offering a publicity speech on assisting on Islamophobia in US to Obama.

Najib, your Islamophabia preaching is a ‘red herring’ argument whereby in doing so; you intend to mislead and distract the discussion away from the issues under debate and instead focus attention on publicity stunts.

The Islamophobia is perpetrated to the highest extent in Malaysia through your administration’s practice towards the minority so how will you be able to assist Obama when you can’t even clean up your own backyard?

If you look at the incidents that occur in Malaysia as discussed above, it definitely gives the credence to Ismaophobia as an irrational fear or prejudice towards Islam and Muslims seems to prevail. It is no more a theological belief system for what is humane but becomes a cult institution perpetrated by the Malaysian institution against what is a basic right for minorities.

Frankly, looking at how a majority Islam-based government in Malaysia and its organs treats its minorities in Malaysia for the last 53 years; it would enlighten any nation of its ramifications.

The writer is chairperson, Hindraf.

Permanent solution and land titles for poor Indian villages cum settlements like for Malay, Orang Asli, Kadazan, Iban and Chinese. But which are systematically “ethnically cleansed” by DAP, PKR, PAS and UMNO in bi racial One Malay-sia.

Re: Permanent solution and land titles for poor Indian villages cum settlements like for Malay, Orang Asli, Kadazan, Iban and Chinese. But which are systematically “ethnically cleansed” by DAP, PKR, PAS and UMNO in bi racial One Malay-sia.

We refer to the above matter on the need to stop all and any further demolishment of Indian villages cum settlements which are also the history and heritage of this country.

In the latest case reported in today’s New Straits Times (1/10/10 at page S2) the family of S.V.Sugayindan (55) who has been occupying their land for more than five generations has now been given notice to vacate their 2.02 hectres of land they are occupying in Kg Haji Abdullah Hukum, Bangsar despite he having a black and white Grant of Letters of Administration granted by the High Court in 1964 for the transfer of estate from his grandfather to his father.

The Kuala Lumpur City Hall refused to acknowledge this legal document but instead deem them as squatters and wants to demolish his ancestral village within one month.

Sugayindran also claims that the government had taken several parts of the land for various projects since 1964 without compensating his family. “For years they have taken our land without even giving us a sen. For even just this one man Sugayindran, he was never offered the RM4 Million the UMNO government has offered to each of the 5,000 Kg Baru Malay muslim villagers in the 80 hectres Kampong Baru which was in the 1960’s granted land titles and is now worth RM80 Billion as said by the Federal Territories Minister Raja Nong Chik. (UM 19/2/10 at page 27).

Also in today’s Sinar Harian (SH 1/10/10 at page S23) three siblings M Aruchunan (54), M Ratnom (51) and M Rabas Sanderek (45) who have been living on their land for 50 years are now forced to move out by the Selangor PKR government. And again they were never offered the RM 4 Million offered to Kg Baru Malays but are forced to buy a RM30,000.00 low cost flats.

The aforesaid happenings to the Indian poor is just the tip of the iceberg. From our monitoring, it happens on an almost day to day basis. On average almost every day some Indian poor is served an eviction notice or is evicted from their only homes.

Unlike for the Indian poor, there are even 507 permanent Chinese New Villages with land titles nationwide receiving RM55 Million allocation @ RM500,000.00 per Chinese village. (The Star 11/8/10 at page N18).

There are similarly thousands of permanent villages with land titles for the Malay, Orang Asli, Kadazan and Iban poor.

Today in real terms the poor Indians do not have permanent villages like these poor Malays, Orang Asli, Kadazan, Iban and Chinese as they have been denied their due land titles from the word go.

We have taken note that within one month of coming to power in Perak the DAP, PKR & PAS government granted up to 110,000 Malays, Chinese and Orang Asli land as follows:-

Utusan Malaysia on 1/1/2009 reported that “349 Rancangan Perkampungan Tersusun (RPT) and 134 New Villages in Perak with 110,000 and 102,000 (60,000) titles respectively to be given out irrespective of the National Land Councils orders involving almost all Malay and Chinese owners and land recipients. Freehold titles for just RM63.00 for 110,000 planned villages (almost 99% Malay) and 102,000 (60,000) (estimated at almost 99% Chinese) Chinese New Villagers in Perak. “The value of these properties will then go up and they can apply for bank loans to rebuilt their houses” says Datuk Ngae Koo Ham, the Senior DAP EXCO Member for Perak (NST 10/10/2008 at page 23). The PKR, DAP and PAS Perak State government also allocated 1,000 hectares (about 2,500 acres) of land to nine Chinese schools “for them to generate revenue to pay for their operational expenses” says PAS Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Nizar Jamaluddin (NST 31/8/2008 at page 38). The schools were urged to form a company to work the land and share the profits among themselves. The Pakatan Rakyat Menteri Besar also donated RM30,000.00 for each of the nine schools.

Further the 3.3 hectares of land for every orang asli family was approved. 18,000 hectares of forest land have been gazetted as orang asli reserve and another 30,000 hectares more are waiting to be gazetted, says Perak Senior EXCO Member Datuk Ngae Koo Ham (NST 20/9/2008 at page 20).

Enough has been said about the demolishment by DAP of Kg Buah Pala in Penang, the last traditional Indian village in Penang Island.

Also the small Indian farms and settlements demolished by the Kedah state government.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of land granted to the poor Malay, Chinese and the Orang Asli. But a similar permanent being granted land titles solution has never been granted to the poor Indians. Why?

Why are they are systematically “ethnically cleansed”?

Why one rule for the poor Indians and another for the poor Malays, orang asli, Iban, Kadazan and Chinese? in bi racial One Malay-sia. Why take advantage and bully these poor Indians who are powerless and helpless as they have no economic power and are poor and politically powerless?
As a permanent solution, we hereby call for all Indian villages and settlements nationwide to be forthwith granted land titles and for there to be a permanent, lasting and wholesome solution instead of systematically “ethnically cleansing” them one by one and then either offering them a token sum of cash or nothing at all or peanuts flats to be bought which they may not be able to buy or because of poverty and/or old age cannot get a loan in the first place or cannot even pay the monthly installments and are evicted when their property is auctioned. They are then back on the streets or end up like the – Three day old baby in cramped up low cost flat with 20 others including 13 children is height of urban Indian poverty. (The Star 13/7/10 at page N6).

Kindly revert to us accordingly.

Thank You.

Yours Faithfully,

Petition: Bukit Jalil Tamil School “Ethnic Cleansing”

Kempen Tandatangan : Jangan tutup SJK (T) Bukit Jalil dan pindahkannya ke satu tapak tanah yang telah digazetkan sebagai Sekolah Agama Sri Keladi secara sementara dengan tujuan “penghapusan ethnik” secara sistematik sekolah ini dan kesemua 523 sekolah-sekolah Tamil di Malaysia. SJK(T) Bukit Jalil ini adalah simbol pengorbanan, sejarah dan warisan pekerja-pekerja ladang yang harus dipelihara sebagai tapak Warisan Satu Malaysia untuk generasi akan datang.

Sekolah ini juga adalah dekat sesuai dan perlu untuk lebih kurang 1,000 keluarga di Flats PPR, Kg Muhibah, Ladang Bukit Jalil, Alam Sutera, Mutiara Bukit Jalil dan lain-lain lagi.

Kenapa hanya sekolah-sekolah Tamil sahaja di kenalpasti, dipindah- randah, dan dianayai yang tidak dilakukan kepada sekolah-sekolah Melayu, Cina Orang Asli, Kadazan atau Iban.

Kami minta Kerajaan Malaysia supaya perbuatan penutupan dan pindah-randah sekolah-sekolah Tamil ini diseluruh negara dihentikan secara segera.

Kami mahu SJK(T) Bukit Jalil ini diberikan tanah seluas sepuluh (10) ekar di lokasi sedia ada dan digazetkan sedimikian dan di bina semula dan dijadikan sebagai sekolah Bestari berasrama penuh Tamil yang pertama di Malaysia.

Kesemua 523 sekolah-sekolah Tamil di Satu Malaysia juga harus diberikan tanah lima (5) ekar setiap satu sekolah dijadikan sekolah-sekolah kerajaan bantuan penuh dan digazetkan sedemikian untuk setiap satu sekolah dan memelihara kesemua 523 sekolah-sekolah Tamil di Satu Malaysia ini.

Y.B Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin Minister of Education Malaysia, Pejabat Menteri Pelajaran, Aras 10, Block E8, Complex Kerajaan Parcal E, Fax : 03-8889 5846 62604 Putrajaya. E-Mail: khairulam@moe.gov.my

UMNO electricity switch board room blast: 2,000 over Simpang Lima Tamil school children escape death. Call for almost all 523 colonial era Tamil schools to be rebuilt.

The Colonial era Simpang Lima Tamil school building housing their electricity switch board room and which doubled up as their store room suddenly exploded and burst into flames endangering if not the 2,000 ethnic minority Indian children escaping death. (See Malaysia Nanban 24/9/2010 at page 3 and Makkal Osai at page 8).

Hundreds of students currently sitting for their UPSR exams in the next two school blocks had suffered a shock and thereby disrupting their UPSR examinations.

To add insult to injury another colonial era Sg Tekal Triang Tamil school roof was blown away by strong winds again endangering the Indian childrens’ lives. This is again in today’s very same newsreport in Tamil Nesan 24/9/10 at page 6).

We regret to note that despite 53 years of Independence and with Malay-sia having the world’s tallest twin towers, colonial era Tamil school buildings have not been rebuild in contravention of Article 8 of the Federal Constitution which provides for Equality before the law meaning equality also between the 523 Tamil and Malay muslim schools and Article 12 of the Federal Constitution which states that there shall be no discrimination in education for schools receiving government financial assistance. Also Article 28 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child 1989 which Malaysia has rectified in 1995 which in effect guarantees compulsory and free education for all children. (NST 30/10/08 at page 10). But for almost all the 523 Tamil schools in Malaysia, the preexisting poor Indian parents have to come out with money to rebuilt the school, buy computers, sports equipment, stationary and even to pay the school water and electricity bills.

Why does all these have to happen only to Tamil schools? We have hardly read of these happening to a Malay, Chinese, Orang Asli, Kadazan or Iban schools. Why? Because of the poor and politically powerless state of the Malaysian Indians and with almost zero economic power and who are also soft targets and easy to bully?

On behalf of the Two and a half Million ethnic minority Malaysian Indian community and so that in particular this would no recur, we hereby urge your goodselves to within one week announce and also notify us in writing that all colonial era Tamil schools would be accordingly replaced with new four storey, smart and elite schools to at least undo the injustices meted out to the poor Malaysian Indians in over the last 53 years.

Kindly revert to us accordingly.

Thank You.

Yours Faithfully,

Underworld reaching out to Indians

P Dev Anand Pillai ,

Much hype has been created after two lawyer brothers had been arrested and remanded to help the police in the investigations into the murders the cosmetics queen Sosilawati. The two lawyer brothers being ethnic Indians, has now brought about the same old rhetoric about the modus operandi of these gruesome murders which apes the styles of murders acted in Tamil movies.

So the moral of the story is that reduce the number of Tamil movies being screened and Indian Malaysians will not resort to violence anymore. Is it as easy as that? I have my doubts. I do agree with many of the well-researched analyses provided by many that the main cause of Indian youths turning to violence is because of the lack of opportunities in any sphere of their lives.

It is easy to blame the MIC but as Indian Malaysians aren’t we also entitled to equality in treatment and opportunities in this beloved land of ours? Why do we finally say that it has been the fault of the MIC for not speaking up for the Indians? Shouldn’t it be the BN government of the day led by Umno since Independence who should bear the burden of responding to such a demand?

There was once a time when we used to see many Indian headmasters/mistresses of secondary schools, Indian police state chiefs, Indian government servants in the railways, waterworks, public utilities, sport bodies and many other arenas but all this is history now. We do not even see Indian boys and girls being elected as head prefects of their schools anymore. If ever we do come across one, it would be a rarity but sadly that is the current status quo.

So with this unequal situation, what do these youths do with their energy? If it is not tapped by the government which was brought to power with their votes, the underworld will tap into this vast human resource to expand their activities. When this happens, we quickly point fingers but do we stop to resolve a way to overcome this imbalance?

After many years of mental slumber where most were lulled into being unable to think, a revolt came and it brought about a jolt in the Indian mind which has now woken up but is it fair to blame current Pakatan Rakyat \governments for what had been socially engineered by the BN for the past 53 years? Can a new Pakatan government do magic by waving their magic wand and change the situation overnight?

From what we have seen so far in most sensational criminal cases, Indians seem to be the best ‘runners’, middlemen, henchmen, scapegoats, point men and foot soldiers for those high up in the social strata who may be of other ethnic races in the country. What can be seen from this is that for the Indian, if a call comes from those high up in positions of power, like the government, politicians and wealthy businessmen, they will heed the call and do as instructed.

So what we have is a loyal and blind allegiance mentality which many feel will uplift them socially. Can we blame them? Who won’t want that. But are we harnessing this energy for the right purpose?

What if more opportunities were given based on merit, ability, interest and the will to succeed without ever bringing in the colour of the skin or the religion that one belongs to. Wouldn’t it direct their energies to doing good and benefitting society along the way? As the HRP secretary general P Uthayakumar had pointed out, many are still roaming the country without proper birth documents although they would have been in this country for the past three to four generations.

Licenses, franchises, operating permits for petrol stations, stalls at highway rest areas are still not given to the Indians. The Umno- led federal government fails to realise that all these socials ills will eventually give Malaysia a very bad name internationally in every sphere from politics to human rights.

It will reflect badly on them but having been at the helm for the past five decades why didn’t they do some thing to stop this imbalance? Has this been a master plan to slowly get the Indians out of the mainstream or has it been a plain ‘not-at-all-bothered attitude’ shown towards the Indians?

It is of no use to coax and cajole Indians of different South Indian heritage by attending gatherings organized by the Tamils, Telegus and Malayalees. it would be better to get the job done by opening the doors of opportunity for the best to serve. If Tony Fernandez has made AirAsia soar high in the low-cost airline industry, then he must be seen as a Malaysian of Indian decent who has made the country proud instead of being seen as a threat to other races.

The same will be applicable to the likes of Ananda Krishnan of Maxis, Ganalingam of West Port and AK Nathan of Eversendai. They must be seen as the Malaysia’s ability and strength instead of being viewed with the racial lens.

Malaysia’s strength lies in its diversity and if we fail to realise and tap that resource, it will be our failure to realize a very bright future in the development of our mindset. We seek equality in every sense of the word.
