DAP's SIVASUBRAMANIAM QUITS DAP IN PERAK



The newly elected DAP Buntong State Assemblyman A. Sivasubramaniam has resigned from the party in protest of a promise made that there will be 2 State Executive Councillors from the Indian community. He has tendered his resignation letter to DAP Secretary-General Lim Guan Eng claiming that DAP Perak chief Ngeh Khoo Ham had breached his promise to appoint two exco members from the Indian community since the victory of the Opposition State government was also due to Makkal Shakti. With Sivasubramaniam's departure, the State Opposition has 30 out of 59 members which leaves their position in a critical situation.

In a further development, it has been revealed that a newcomer Indian member just before election has been proposed a Senator's appointment in Penang whereby depriving other long-term and committed members. The basis used was that this newcomer will be able to put alot of Indian members from GERAKAN since his father is the Vice President, Senator and former Parliament Secretary from Gerakan.

Its time for DAP to address the Indian situation before it gets out of hand. The Indian community wants promises kept and feel that just trying to be a 'good mate' no longer works.

Its all up to the DAP to fullfill their election promises.

My fellow Indian, please think of what you are doing!For the first time ever, Malays, Chinese and Indians have put race aside and voted for the opposition just to ensure a clean and fair government for our children. So what if the majority of voters in Perak are Indians? Are you going to ignore the other states where non-Indians voted for Indians because they were Barisan Rakyat? Even PAS fielded an Indian Hindu!!! You have personally brought distress to right thinking Malaysians everywhere for being a racist after all our hard work build a new Malaysia.

If you wanted to talk about the race, means you are almost the same as semi value. Forget about races, we are dealing with Malaysian nowadays. This is what we are voted for.

DAP! Remember this.

Do not expect the malay to give you their votes in the coming election. You just bullshitting them in your ceramah.

You do not walk the talk. Its all about power that you're interested.

You just shown your true colors.
