We need a brand new Malaysia, we been living in the “dark ages” for a long time now.… [Click to read the rest] “D-Day for Anwar”

She was “rewarded” and everything seems to be swept under the carpet (as usual). But MIC kept up with the fight – man, they had to do otherwise there is no point they to be claiming to be championing the rights of the Indians, right?… [Click to read the rest] “If MIC cannot solve this…”
