You call that a Hari Raya wish?


'Hapuskan ISA, Lepaskan Hindraf; Hapuskan ISA, Lepaskan Hindraf' (Repeal the ISA, Release the Hindraf detainees). That was all the group of HINDRAF supporters said to Prime Minister Dato' Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi during the Hari Raya Eidul Fitri open house hosted by cabinet ministers at the PWTC recently. Only one among them wished Selamat Hari Raya.

This not the kind of greeting one conveys to a host on Hari Raya.

Following an outcry from many quarters, HINDRAF again turned the tables around by saying that they were wrongly reported by the media and threatened to sue the Home Minister as well as one of the main stream newspapers.

This always seems to be HINDRAF's favorite modus operandi – by using children and other convenient excuses to cover their true intentions.

All I can say to them at this juncture is "STOP IT." People are not blind. They can see where you are coming from all the time...
