A new face of MIC

Latest!! BN Candidate to be decided on April 15. Read here.

[updated]

Kalamanathan calon BN Hulu Selangor? by Unspinners

[Original posting]
P. Kamalanathan. I know Kamalanathan as a blogger, first, and a PR practitioner, second. He invited me to speak at Bloggers' Buff, a gathering of bloggers which he initiated together with fellow PR practitioners and friends. And then late last year he won the MIC elections and is today the party's new Information Chief.
Youthful and educated, humble and idealistic, this Selangor-born is the new face of MIC, if you like.

I'd like to see Palanivel, a former journalist, get another shot at the Hulu Selangor by-elections. But if Najib Razak happens to be looking for new blood - not just from MIC but from BN - here's a candidate likely to appeal to moderate Malaysians, young or old.

    Saya setuju dengan cadangan dr mahathir.

    Pasti kedua2 pihak umno dan mic akan berpuashati.

    Macam pula dengan MCA dan Gerakan yang tidak puashati pasal dia buka Persidangan Agung Perkasa?

    Saya rasa gini saja. Kita tengok dulu samada MCA dan Gerakan boleh bawa undi Cina atau tidak?

    Kalau tidak, kita gugurkan mereka dari BN. Kewujudan mereka hanya membuang masa dengan tuntutan dan permintaan.

    Undi tak boleh bawak jangan cakap banyaklah!!!!!

    Baik diganti dengan KIMMA.

    Tak payah lah nak sound vague or unsure, kalau Dato' yg cakap, mestilah si Kamal tu yang akan jadi calonnya.

    Tak kisah lah sapa jgn si poyo tua bangka Mat Taib sudahlah. Kasi can muka baru. Muka lama bernoda rasuah, tak payah! Buat susah je. Nanti jadi macam lawyer yg kena struck out dari roll pun jadi calon BN, tak ke malu tu?

    Lagi satu, boleh tak suruh si Parpukari tu berhenti menyalak. Journalism and blogging are a calling, it aint for someone as low as him. Tolonglah faham, ramai org menyampah tahu tak?

    Lepas tu duduk melangut kat PWTC macam bagus. He brings bad omen to the already-muddy BN's name.

    Thank u for listening datuk.

  18. Kuota MIC sudah diberi kepada MIC pada Pilihan Raya Umum yang lalu. Dan BN kalah. Kalau hendak cerita pasal kuota pun, tunggulah PRU akan datang. Pilihanraya kecil kali ini BN mesti menang untuk mengekalkan momentum kemenangan di pilihan raya kecil Bagan Pinang yang telah dimenangi dengan majoriti besar kerana calon yang betul iaitu Tan Sri Isa Samad.

    Sebelum ini, artikel saya ada menyebut tentang pilihanraya ini sebagai ujian untuk slogan 1Malaysia. Ini saya hendak ingatkan lagi pemimpin UMNO. Pencapaian diutamakan. Tidak faham-faham atau memang "dumb dumb dumb" ??

    I think we should let UMNO have this seat bcoz it is a Malay majority seat.Give full support to a Malay candidate from BN and if BN won than powers will be shared according to rank and file. I totally agree with YB Dtk Dr. Abd Latif of UMNO MT. Pick a candidate who could win and deliver.Enough is enough. No more concession.

    See the Dontplaypuks @ pundek fellow. Even an Indian being proposed he criticises. Nothing seems to be right with him . Like LKS, LGE and the DAP crowd.

    He accused Warrior 231 being racist at the previous post. Yet he is racist himself in many instances. I have countered him there. I support the Warrior's views most if not all the time.

    Hope this playpuks fellow will read my comment in the previous post. He can't be talking nonsense here and there too often. Even his "One Human Race in the world" thing is irrational and irritating. He can say what he likes in reply but I'm not sure whether I can read him.

    I support you 100%, man. pick a true blue Melayu Bermaruah to represent the majority race in that seat. My grassroot contacts there tell me that the Malays will vote BN in droves if a Malay stands there. My calculations also show that the last time around arwah Datuk Zainal won because the Hindulen vote swung to the other side together with that of the parasitic Chingkie scum. 58% of Malays voted BN despite an Injun while of the remaining 42% only some 25% were hardcore PKR or PAS munafuckin nutcases, so anyone rational can do their maths as to where the 17% came from. Yeah, 17% of UMNO/BNites disenchanted with an idiotic Sleeptroll plus a Hindulen intruding into the territory. Remember arwah was also an exUmno man plus all three state seats went BN's way.

    Hidup Perkasa and Yeah! to a Wealth Tax on the non-pribumi.

    I believe the seat should go to Mat Taib as he has proved that he is a leader that fit into UMNO culture the best and being a better MB than Toyo too. The area is a Malay majority and why put in an Indian? Even if all the Indians voted the candidate from MIC that would earn only 19% so what about the Malay and Chinese vote?

  45. India yang pelik. memang betul orang India memang kuat minum samsu. Lepas miinum dunia ni ana yang punya. Jumlah ornag India di hulu selangor cuma 12000. Memang benar Umno berikan pada MIC sebab setiakawan, kerana masa itu tiada istilah tikam belakang.Tetapi bila Hindarf muncul dan melontarkan macam macam ugutan dan fitnah, orang Melayu bukan saja bosan dg Hindraf malah dg MIC sebab itu Mr G kalah. Analisa lah dg kemenangan UMNO di state seat dg Parlimen. Buat masa ni MIC tak perlu bertanding di mana mana , buat lah kerja dengan mendapatkan sokong masyarakat India bukan dg pilihan raya Hulu selangor. Jika hendak jadi kayu pengukur sokongan orang India kepada MIC tungghu lah pilihanraya di Kapar kalau nasib baik ada. Pernah kah kita dengar atau melihat calon UMNO bertanding dikawasan Majority CIna atau India? Sebenrarnya UMNO parti Melayu aka orang melayu telah lama bertolak ansur dg orang cina dan india cuma meraka masih buat buat tak tahu. Kaya dan senangnya masyarakat India dan Cina di Malaysia adalah kerana pembeli dan pemakai itu majority nya Melayu. Hidup Perkasa kerana lemahnya UMNO masalah Perkasa cuma Ibrahim Ali saja.

    BN should put up candidates which satisfy certain performance criteria and if that includes humility all the better and we shouldn't begrudge any component party if these criteria are met.

    But what hope the BN if the candidate from a party which having suffered massive election losses has failed to renew itself? What model of humility is Samyvelu?

    I am an Indian, and I want BN to put an UMNO candidate, because Kali, Kamal or Palani do no have the support of the Indian community. Indians want to vote for BN, to thank Najib, but they wont if a MIC candidate is placed. Put Mat Tyson instead, but of coz, Muhiddin Yasin wont like that... a leader who is vastly popular, and if Selangor is in his hands, it will be easy for him to kick out Muhiddin as depty head of UMNO.

    Why not Kamalanathan?

    He is young, vibrant with ideas, a true Malaysian (check out his blog if you don't believe me), respectful (even in his writings), always had a clean record (for those who claim he is a crook or has some bad records, i dare you to prove it and btw, just for your info if you do not know already, there will be a background check for all candidates before being proposed).

    Besides being the Info Chief for MIC, he is also the Putera MIC National Coordinator (for those who are not too sure what Putera MIC is, use the search engine). He is what re-branding is all about. People like him are the type of leaders which should not be sidelined but given a chance to prove his worth and what he and his party stands for.

    If he becomes the candidate, trust me, PKR will certainly not have it easy and they know it too.

    A few words in Bahasa Malaysia:

    P Kamalanathan merupakan produk yang lain daripada yang kita kenali sebelum ini dari MIC.

    Dialah re-branding yang MIC perlukan untuk menguatkan BN.

    Hanya ada kurang daripada 2 tahun lagi sebelum PRU-13. Berilah dia peluang untuk menerajui kerusi ini dan buktikan dirinya.

    Kamalanathan akan menjadi asas kebangkitan MIC.

    Salam 1Malaysia.
