Motive behind Samy's fault-fixing for polls defeat?



Not which it counts very much now, though S Samy Vellu's blaming Dr Mahathir Mohamad for his better in his former bailiwick of Sungai Siput in the final ubiquitous choosing is engaging for what it discloses of the revisionist impulse.

Also, the timing of Samy's blame-fixing for his better draws courtesy to who would be the BN claimant to wrest the chair behind from the clutches of the giant-slaying incumbent, Dr Jeyakumar Devaraj.

Experienced politicians do not routinely engage in fault-assigning retrospectives but the motive; Samy is clearly up to something.

bagan pinang by-election 071009 samy vellu revisit 02He claims which Mahathir had called upon Malay electorate in the subdivision not to opinion for the former MIC boss out of resentment for Samy's objection to the entrance of the Indian Progressive Front into the BN during the tail finish of Mahathir's premiership.

According to the ruling coalition's manners of engagement, the objection of one member of the BN to the acknowledgment of the brand new person submitting application is the halt which cannot be overridden.

Samy right away says which Mahathir's liberated his rancour over Samy's objection to the IPF's ! entrance by publicly rooting for his better in Sungai Siput in the final election.

Indeed Mahathir wielded as well as still commands the lot of change in Umno as well as BN, though to explain which such lean as he enjoyed extended to being means to change the outcome of the list in Sungai Siput in Mar 2008 is stretching things some.

Samy's hubristic presumption


Even Samy Vellu would have felt the same way, if he has been apprised which Mahathir was signaling for his defeat, in the few days prior to the opinion upon Ma! r 8 whic h year.

For the MIC impresario was during the tip of his showman form in the immediate prelude to the opinion as well as had comported himself similar to he was stone cold certain which he would be returned to what would have been his eight-term as Sungai Siput MP.

NONEThis reporter happened to be in Sungai Siput upon Mar 4 as well as was in the operations bureau of Jeyakumar (left) which afternoon when dual senior internal reporters arrived in the mild stupor from having witnessed an fervent opening by the then MIC titan during the latter's choosing headquarters.
One of the two, adept during mimicking the mannerisms of the subjects he has interviewed, proceeded to give the demonstration of Samy the impresario to the knot of reporters who had collected around him after he disclosed he had been just been to interview the grandee himself.

To put things plainly, from the journalist's account, the MIC supremo was regally dismissive of speculation which he could lose, this notwithstanding reverberations from the polls' grapevine indicative of meaningful knowledge for MIC possibilities not favoured by Hindraf, the vigour organisation which blew in similar to the gale into the national domestic theatre the previous November when it organised the demonstration in Kuala Lumpur by the Indian poor which was indeed considerable in size as well as determination.

"They (Hindraf) have been usually the organisation of 1,800 people," Samy reportedly pronounced to the journalist who interviewed him which morning.

"All this (meaning the hullabaloo caused by Hindraf) would vanish by Thursday," pronounced Samy upon the Tuesday prior to Saturday's vote.

Pointing to the drains as well as roads outside his office, Samy pronounced to the journalist, "You know who built as well as maintains these things?"

He refrained from giving the answ! er, hypo thesis it was obvious.

All in all, it was the arrangement of hubristic hypothesis which prolonged incumbencies in energy breed.

Palanivel in poke for the seat

Samy Vellu, similar to many of the rest of the BN leadership cohort, did not expect which the choosing would result in the domestic tsunami.

NONESo right away what gives in his try to find the scapegoat for his defeat?

It is right away utterly transparent which MIC boss G Palanivel's (left in photo) selling around for the chair to competition is not starting to emanate in his settling upon Sungai Siput.

That would make the man who doled out 7,000 hampers to residents of Sungai Siput over the Deepavali celebrations final Oct as well as followed up with the present of 200 laptops to selected youths the favoured MIC claimant to competition the chair opposite Parti Sosialis Malaysia incumbent, Jeyakumar.

The glad-hander bears family ties to the former MIC kingpin - who else has the wherewithal to play sugarine daddy?

Long incumbencies not usually multiply conceited presumption, it additionally stokes dynastic aspirations.

It is the ideal function for the temperament which finds energy erotically appealing as well as its exercise abhorrent.
