What MIC done for the past 51 years? Thats what almost everyone who visits my blog asking. Well It'll be hell of a long list ppl. But since many of us choose to deny whatever MIC did in the past, i choose to update what is MIC doing right NOW. ( what i able to find out)

  • Tekun Loan

    Under the poverty eradication program for the Indian community, the government has allocated RM 3 million for small and medium enterprises to be given out as loans. This opportunity is made available for young Indians between the ages of 18 – 40 years old. Tekun Nasional with Yayasan Strategik Sosial has formed a committee to implement and monitor the progress and process of this initiative.
  • Bank Simpanan Nasional Offers Jobs for Eligible Malaysian Indians

    Malaysian Indians’ participation in the public service sector has been very low. ‘More opportunities need to be provided to Malaysian Indians in public service agencies and government linked companies and organisations,’ has been a heart cry of the Malaysian Indian Congress.
Some of the previous Walks...........

Politics...politics and politics..... and now Malaysia about to witness the mother of all by election..... wait a minute.... what about all the so called "janji pilihan raya" GE-12. We only hearing about it during elections. Maybe next time the rakyat need have our own "check list" on that...lolz....

I would like to highlight on a press statement by Dato Dr. Subramaniam, MIC secretary-general and human resources minister (Subra: New plans show Indians not marginalised) it was on malaysiakini 5th of july 2008. Many might ask..so what about it?

I got over exited and started a post in friendster's HINDRAF group forum (‘Major achievement’ for MIC) and guess what, i was "attacked" by many of course. " DEI PUNITHAN SHAN..........how can you call that as achievements whereas it just a plan, and not yet implemented....dont try to fool the people here..." a sample of respond i got. very reasonable....:) . Besides that i would like to refer to HINDRAF's official statement on the matter (PM ANNOUNCED BAD NEWS TO MALAYSIAN INDIANS AT MIC GENERAL ASSEMBLY STOP THE CONTINOUS BULLY AND CHEAT) . Besides that, i get similar kind of responds to my post on (MIC & HINDRAF - Rela Demi Masyarakat India???)

Well, very reasonable i guess. How can one tell its achievement since those are only promises that made by MIC and govern. So i did my own check list to see if they really walking the talk???
Here, i have posted the "walking the talk" of MIC since the day this "NEW PLANS FOR INDIANS" announced about 1 month ago. The best i could do with my limited time and resources .

WALKING THE PLAN 1

Government: Allocations For The Welfare of Malaysian Indians

WALKING THE PLAN 2

Unit to keep track of Tamil schools

WALKING THE PLAN 3

Today,(12 July 2008) The Prime minister officially announced that AIMST students can apply PSD loan and scholarship.
AIMST will be one of the 5 Private universities in Malaysia that won this privilege from the government.

WALKING THE PLAN 4

The Government has approved a RM120mil allocation for the development of the Indian community for four years following a request by the MIC.
MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu said the RM30mil allocation each year would be used to help single mothers become self sufficient as well as for youth programmes and other programmes to help the needy.

"Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi gave the approval recently," he told reporters Saturday after the end of the one-day MIC general assembly here.

He said that the allocation was part of the RM300mil sought from the Government in May to help poor Malaysian Indians.

WALKING THE PLAN 5

Skills Course for Minimum SPM Scorers

WALKING THE PLAN 6

Education without Values

WALKING THE PLAN 7

Latest Offer - MIED's study loans

WALKING THE PLAN 8

RM3 mil aid for young Indian entrepreneurs

SO, It's for the community to move forward now and avail themselves to these opportunities. Of course the opportunity can be given but the person must also take the initiative to come forward. The aim of this post is not only to list out MIC's plan's and agenda's, but also to spread the news around so it will be known and benefited by the rakyat. The links are with extra informations and application form download links.

This are only some of the "moveS" for past 1 month.
Answering to HINDRAF's "18-demands"? Let the community decides.......
