I refer to the Malaysiakini report Kayveas: Samy has lost control .

So once again PPP's M Kayveas makes one of his periodic heroic forays into the public eye, this time to remove the aspersion that MIC's S Samy Vellu apparently cast on the PPP during the recent World Indians Conference in India.

No doubt Kayveas expects an idolising crowd of fans to stand up and cheer at this - his latest display of fearless disregard for those who belittle his organisation. The object of his rage is, of course, hardly one deserving of sympathy or who should be spared even the least modicum of condemnation and abuse. Samy Vellu continues to earn the utter contempt and disgust of Malaysians and who, as they say in Argentina, had it coming a long time.

Sure, Kayveas, by all means, put on your 'veeran' or warrior armour. The ancient Indian warrior king, Veerapandiya Kattabomman, would certainly be proud of you. But where was this valiant streak when Malacca Menteri Besar Rustam Ali came a-calling at your own annual conference and in public, figuratively spat on PPP ?

You sat there and simply lapped up all that Rustam had to spew out. You did not even have the self-respect to at least walk out of the hall, let alone take Rustam on. Were you scared that such a demonstration of temerity against even an uncouth Umno Mat Rempit leader would be the death knell of your political career?

When it comes to Umno, none of you in PPP, MIC, or MCA have the pluck to stand up. Instead, you grovel and continue to invite them. Oh, I forgot. To respond in like vein would not be in keeping with the Barisan Nasional ‘spirit’.

Kayveas’ only consolation is perhaps that he is not alone in his shameless sycophancy. When Selangor Menteri Besar Mohd Khir Toyo attended a recent meeting with Hindu temple representatives to discuss the issue of temple demolitions, the committee - unbelievably - presented a shawl to him, a symbol of respect in the Indian culture.

This to the man who is the architect of the devastation being wreaked on Hindu temples. It is equivalent to the Jews building a monument to Hitler.

Long story short, Kayveas, Samy Vellu and the rest of us Injuns deserve all this and more.
