COMMENT | We are becoming a conducive environment or an incubator for terrorist groups both local and foreign.

This Sunday MIC is going to have its 70th general assembly. After Dr S Subramaniam consolidated his power by sidelining his predecessor, he is moving to another phase of transition as the leader of the oldest Indian Malaysian political party in the government of Malaysia.

Yesterday in Kabul, two suicide bombers killed 61 people and more than 207 people were injured. Recently in Nice, a terrorist used truck to kill more than 20 people. A few days ago, in Wurzburg, Germany a young refugee who is of unknown origin (Afghan/Pakistani) had attacked train passengers with knife and axe, where five people were injured.

France is under siege again. Yesterday, a man drove a truck into a crowd in Nice and killed more than 84 people while they were celebrating Bastille Day (National Day).

Yesterday, yet again two separate car bombs detonated in the predominantly Shiite areas of Baghdad, killing nearly 126 people including 25 children and wounded more than 150 people. Islamic State (IS) has claimed the responsibility for the said attacks.

Yesterday, Britons through a referendum made a decision to leave European Union. The ruling Conservative Party divided on this referendum and David Cameron in favour of ‘Remain’ was defeated outright. Even though he is disagreed with the decision of Britons, he announced that he is resigning from his premiership in respect of people’s decision. We can expect in a mature democracy country like United Kingdom this is vastly anticipated to be transpired.
