Added to this their arrogance in the self belief that they would remain in power and hold even more power for ever and ever clouded their visions to the extent that they could not see the future and the tsunami following them very closely. <BR/><BR/>Now they may be pondering on how to get out of tricky and corrupt situations that they are already in or even pondering further that taking one's own life like one failed ADUN did, would solve their problems for themselves and their families.<BR/><BR/>In this melee it is doubtful that MIC was given due recognition except being treated as trustworthy slaves and the cries for help from Dato' Samy may have fallen on deaf ears or at the back of the Elite who were taking Samy for a Joker and the Indians for 'pariahs'.<BR/><BR/>Dato Samy's achievements against the odds must be seen in a fair manner when the heat dies down. At the same time the psyche of the Indian community and of its internal bickering and untrustworthiness must also be added on into this dimension. <BR/><BR/>It is certain that the Dato had contained to the extent possible every element that he was able to control and sqeeze out of the BN whatever he could for the community. In the process he of course had to suffer the ignominy he undergoes today and which he rightfully should not go through. He has had problems with family life. This is an occupational hazard for politicians of every ilk. <BR/><BR/>We could see that when Dato' Samy telephoned the Menteri Besar of Selangor and asked him to stop the destruction of the temple in Shah Alam that he was just ridiculed and ignored by the MB who by protocal ranks lower to the Minister. However fate has dealt properly with the Toyol as the MB is usually defined. This is merely one incident of how effective that the voice of the Dato' was in the BN corridors.<BR/><BR/>Some say that the breaking of the temples which have 'sakthi' and the agony of the Devotees had angered the Celestial Beings who in their fury decided to teach BN a lesson and tople it from its mighty high shoes. If so, then God Himself intervened on behalf of his faithful. <BR/><BR/>In the final analysis the Nation would hopefully understand Dato' Samy in the proper context and recognise him for all that he was worth and is still worth and title him with a TUN ship. <BR/><BR/>Let that be the hope of many of us who have compassion in their hearts and bear no ill will to any being under the Creation.DIASPORAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11706506475462990703noreply@blogger.com
