Another Hardhanded Oppression by UMNO

Home Affair Minister Syed Omar Albar has again manifested his arrogance and aversion to Indian community and Indian Press in general.

He had already refused for the release of the Hindraf 5 despite the calls even by the MIC president, Dato' Samy Vellu and Gerakan and MCA leaders, the component parties leaders.

It clearly shows that BN is dominated by UMNO and UMNO has an upper hand in decision making and has a full controll of BN's policy and enforcement of unfair and biased rules and regulations against their political foes.

Now that Syed Hamid has taken vengeance on the Tamil newspaper Makkal Osai by refusing the extension of its publishing permits with no concrete grounds and reasons.

It seems that BN and Syed Hamid have a double standard policy in approving the publishing permits which favors Malays owned and pro-BN newspapers like Berita Harian and Utusan Malaysia which freely publish provocative and sensitive issues in oblivious of the feelings of other races yet they do not have any problem in obtaining publishing permits.

It is obvious that Syed Hamid practise communal political in favour of only UMNO's clique in particular and the Malays in general and is not fit to be a minister or leader of Malaysia, therefore he should resign and leave for good lest hurting the feeling of minority races.
