Mahathir Finally Seeks Help From Waytha Out There
Today is a historic day for the Malaysian Indian community. The man who for 22 years of his life did nothing to help alleviate their socio-economic status has finally sought help, in the most famous phrase, like from one Indian to another Indian.

Indian business group fears Indians will be marginalised if Dr Mahathir becomes PM again
.
THE Malaysian Associated Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry today voiced its concern about the possibility of Indians being marginalised if Dr Mahathir Mohamad is given the chance to rule the country again.
Its president, Dr K. Kenneth Eswaran, said such an outcome was not impossible as records showed that the community was marginalised and left behind due to the race-based policies put in place when Dr Mahathir was prime minister.
“Dr Mahathir was in power for 22 years. The policies set by him saw the rights of Indians being gradually eroded in the shared economy.

After Waytha, Dr M now courts Palanivel supporters
In his bid to attract Indian votes for Pakatan Harapan in the next general election, former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad is now reportedly courting supporters of former MIC president G Palanivel.
According to Tamil daily Makkal Osai, the Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) chairperson extended an invitation to the Palanivel camp earlier this week, and they are expected to meet him as early as next week.
Palanivel was ousted from his position after a leadership tussle within the party, which saw an internal split into two camps, one under him and the other under current president Dr S Subramaniam.
This came after the Registry of Societies issued a notice on Dec 5, 2014, ordering the party to hold a re-election, in which Subramaniam won.
A sizeable number of Palanivel’s supporters have since returned to the party’s fold, but Palanivel and his loyalists have held out.
The Makkal Osai report quoted a prominent member of Palanivel’s team saying he felt honoured to have received the invitation from Mahathir and that they would definitely attend the meeting.
If the meeting goes well, the Palanivel loyalists are expected to switch their alliance from BN to Harapan, added the report.
