PR Marginalizes Indians

PR Marginalizes Indians: Deepavali is around the corner. Where are the festive banners from our elected leaders? The Pakatan menteri besar has only one miserable banner in Dataran Shah Alam.

None in Tengku Kelana – the Indian hub of Selangor. Batu Tiga rep Rodziah Ismail has none. DAP has none in Petaling Jaya. At the Taman Bahagia LRT station, the Hari Raya banner from the DAP MP is still there – no Deepavali banner.

Last year, the DAP banners had no Tamil writing. The SACC Mall owned by PKNS had no Deepavali decorations. The MPPJ head office still Hari Raya greeting banners.

There is no harm in still having these but where are the Deepavali greetings? Some 70 over percent of the Indian voters in Bagan Pinang switched to BN because of all this neglect.

If Pakatan keeps up this racial marginalisation and neglect, 90 percent of the Indian votes will go to BN.

However, I must commend the Klang mayor for allowing all those stalls at Tengku Kelana for Deepavali and not disturbing the traders. A thousand thanks from the Indians of Selangor.

We’ll keep you in our Deepavali prayers.
