MIC & Hindraf: Expediency over Principles
I caught this via Maverick:
(MIC Youth Chief calls for the release of the Hindraf five)
He explained that the MIC initially supported action against the Hindraf group. However, he said the Indian community went against the MIC and also the BN.
So MIC had no choice but to do what it must do now to stay relevant to the Indians.
Ah, not only too little too late, but think about it - this means that your party is only guided by expediency; you are ‘forcing’ yourself to do something (ie, you would otherwise not do it) only to maintain political power.
What happened to principles? MIC seems to sway with the wind, without any core values. Hardly trustworthy.
A little like the Lim Keng Yaik’s “we must stick to our struggle” Gerakan - who can call for the release of the Hindraf 5 after elections, but not before?
Too little too late.
