PRESS STATEMENT 3rd SEPT 2008.

RE: ATTORNEY GENERAL SHOULD DROP ALL CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST HINDRAF SUPPORTERS
CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST HINDRAF SUPPORTERS POLITICALLY MOTIVATED
ATTORNEY GENERAL PROMOTING HATRED AGAINST THE JUSTICE SYSTEM BY VIOLATING ARTICLE 8 OF THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION.

HINDRAF calls on the Attorney General to drop all criminal charges against HINDRAF supporters arrested and charged for attending the peaceful gathering last November 25th.

Public confidence on the administration of justice in this country is seriously eroded with the selective arrest and prosecution of HINDRAF supporters.

AN OPEN LETTER TO ALL HINDRAF SUPPORTERS

Re: Today's Press Release by various quarters.

I refer to the various press releases issued by various quarters today in all 3 Tamil Dailies on the saga affecting HINDRAF.

For many Malaysians HINDRAF only gives an impression of a struggle on November 25th and the power of people's Makkal Sakti displayed on the day. It was a proud day for all Malaysian Indians as for once Indians in Malaysia were united for a single cause ie to make their plight known to the world.

But what people did not know that HINDRAF was initiated on a serious issue affecting the rights of non-muslims as a result of the M.Moorthy case in December 2005.

SAMY & HIS CRONIES HAVE DONE IT AGAIN.

It is now everybody’s knowledge that Samy and his cronies hijacked Telekoms, TNB and other shares offered to the Indian Community via Maika Holdings and now the same gang has hijacked 3 acres of land that was offered to a Tamil School. We are yet to know what else they have stolen from the Indians,

Are we going to keep quite and let the crooks take the Indians for a ride again?

In spite Samy committed criminal breach of trust and betrayed the Indians there are still many Indians including educated Indians fools who still patronise him and invite him for functions and ceremonies.

This is the time to stand united and regain our status and our rights that had been lost due to crooks like Suna Samy.

Let us decide once and for all:-

AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL STATEMENT (04/09/2008)

Malaysia: Internal Security Act used to punish human rights activists

4 September 2008

New information about the arbitrary detention of five Malaysian government critics obtained by Amnesty International researchers highlights the need for the Malaysian parliament to immediately abolish the country's Internal Security Act, Amnesty International said today.

A recent Amnesty International mission to Malaysia researching the human rights situation there established that the sole reason for the detention of five members of Hindu Rights Action Force (HINDRAF), a group dedicated to defending the rights of Malaysia's ethnic South Asians, was for expressing concerns about the marginalization of ethnic South Asians within Malaysian society and specifically for organizing rallies.

RE: ISA DETAINEE VASANTHAKUMAR A SPECIAL BRANCH PLANT
RAMACHANDRAN MEYAPPAN & V.K.REGU HAVE BEEN RECRUITED AS
GOVERNMENT AGENTS TO BETRAY HINDRAF CAUSE.

ISA detainee Vasanthakumar had volunteered to join HINDRAF in September 2007 and according to him at that time he was “waiting for someone to do something drastic” and the fact that I had filed an action against the UK Government attracted him to join HINDRAF. He had then served as a volunteer and I offered him to undertake the post of pro tem treasurer.

PRESS STATEMENT 23rd August 2008

RE: MIC LEADER’S REPEATED LIES “HE SPOKE” TO HINDRAF

HINDRAF views with deep concern statements by MIC leader Dato Seri Samy Velu that he has “spoken to” HINDRAF leaders and that they support MIC and the Barisan Candidate in Permatang Pauh.

This is a blatant lie by Dato Samy Velu and irresponsibly made to confuse the voters in Permatang Pauh.

We challenge Samy Velu to name the leaders he has “spoken to”. We are aware there are groups that call themselves Makkal Sakti (who are proxies of MIC) and are misleading the public so it may be possible Samy Velu has spoken to these “bogus supporters” who claim to represent HINDRAF.

Hindu Temples & Crematoriums To Be Phased Out Of Kuala Lumpur ?

http://www.hindusangam.org.my/news/?id=91

More than 120 temple representatives present at a meeting organized by Malaysia Hindu Sangam at the Dewan Tan Sri K R Soma, KL yesterday were shocked that their temples and 2 existing Hindu Crematoriams were not identified at the master Plan of City of Kuala Lumpur by 2020.

What is of great concern to the community leaders is whether there is a plan to erase off hundreds of Hindu Temples and 2 crematoriams at Jalan Loke Yew and Sentul by the year 2020.

There was a feeling of disappointment and disgust when they were briefed on the Master Plan. They were informed that they have to send their note of protest using the appropriate DBKL Form by 30th August 2008. About 100 forms were distributed at the meeting.

PWM: PRESS STATEMENT 11TH AUGUST 2008

BAR COUNCIL FORUM - CLEAR EVIDENCE OF AUTHORITARIAN STATE
POLICE COLLUDED WITH PROTESTERS – AN INSULT TO ARTICLE 10 OF THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION.
STATEMENT BY HOME MINISTER SYED HAMID IRRESPONSIBLE.

The latest fiasco on the Malaysian Bar Council forum on "Conversion to Islam" clearly indicates that our ruling government practices authoritarian policies where the elected representatives and police are used to suppress civil liberties and freedom of expression in the pretext of security and public order.

The ruling government and its agents, ie police were at their best to exercise their authority to allow the protest by the muslim mobs to incite racial sentiments and storm into the forum and slander, humiliate and insult the non-Malays.

Press Statement 05.08.08.

I refer to the recent launch of the Jalur Gemilang on August 3, 2008. In addition to the teleconference that was interrupted due to technical reasons, I would to add the following;

HINDRAF peace protest at CPA (Commonwealth Parliamentary Association) meeting at KL Convention Centre

[via hindraf.co.uk]

Kuala Lumpur, 3rd Aug 2008.

After successfully launching Hindraf's 1st Jalur Gemilang event in Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur attended by more than 3000 people, Hindraf continues it tireless struggle on the same day.

About 100 people had gathered in front of KL Convention Centre about 12.30 pm today.

They had a peace protest for more than 2 hours carrying banners and placards ("manila card") with various slogans. The group whom most dressed in their safron color dress were waving their placard to the passby people. Few foreign and local medias were seen covering the peace protest.


SUHAKAM -- Malaysia’s Human Rights OMISSION.

SUHAKAM
Malaysia’s Human Rights OMISSION.
(especially for the ethnic minority Indians)

SUHAKAM irresponsible and serves as a tool of Government
Evidence of cover up and collusion to do damage control with Government
Serious Human Rights violations affecting the Minority ethnic Indian community conveniently overlooked
Indian commissioners used by SUHAKAM to “probe” Indian issues – only to mislead the community.

We call upon participants of the Asia Pacific Forum on National Human Rights Institutions to ponder into these facts and politely enquire from SUHAKAM what is their real role.

What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy?

LET US BOYCOTT THE TAMIL NEWSPAPERS

The Tamil Newspapers are making a big mistake by increasing prices. Their justification that because everyone is increasing prices they should also increase prices is not justified at all since they are already making money. They the Indian newspapers should not compare expenses with the other vernacular Newspapers as the other papers are thick in size, have their own reporters, journalists, writers on various subjects especially sports, researchers, a sizeable number of staff, own printing facilities etc. The Indian newspapers have a skeleton staff mainly to copy or to translate news from other papers or news agencies, one or two reporters and cameramen.

PRESS STATEMENT 26 TH JULY 2008

HINDRAF is calling upon all its supporters to celebrate Deepavali this year in quiet penance, meditation and prayers with their family and friends without the usual festive celebration in a symbolic silent protest in favour of our 5 HINDRAF brothers who are unjustly detained for championing equal rights, equal opportunity and freedom of speech and religion.

Deepavali, itself although has many versions, it is primarily celebrated when the good triumphs over the evil. The most popular version is when Narakasura, the evil and unjust ruler of Pradyoshapuram was killed by Krishna's wife – Satyabhama.
