Unhappy MIC members also want MCA-style EGM

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 18 – The MIC appears headed down the MCA path with some party members opposed to Datuk Seri S Samy Vellu attempting now to call for an EGM

The purpose of the EGM, say the conveners who do not want to be identified as yet, is to pass a vote of no confidence against Samy Vellu and force him to resign in the same way that Datuk Dr Chua Soi Lek had tried against MCA president Datuk Ong Tee Kiat, but with more conclusive results.

A senior MIC member said an EGM is one of the options they have decided on to “save” the 63-year-old party from the “clutches of Samy Vellu and his yes-men” team who dominate the all-powerful party central working committee.

He said the decision to convene an EGM was decided at a top level strategy meeting between MIC leaders, Indian NGOs and individuals who were concerned about the future of the party and Indian community.

“They came from different backgrounds but all were united in a mission to save the MIC from further destruction,” he said. - + selanjutnya
