KUALA LUMPUR, Sat: MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu said he can now devote all his time towards rebuilding the party and reuniting the Indian community.

Calling on the Indians to set aside their differences, he vowed to embrace the younger generations strength and ideas into the 62-year-old party.

“Nothing is too little, too late. We can always start afresh and look towards a new beginning,” he said in a press statement today

Samy said that although the morale of some MIC members could be dented after the stunning defeats of many candidates, he stressed that the MIC is still intact.

“However, we need to rebuild the party and bring in young people who will take over the leadership,” he said, urging grassroots leaders to remain united and carry on with their work.

Samy said the MIC hoped to recruit at least 300,000 members from within the younger generation. It now has 630,000 members in 3,700 branches.

The Youth, Putera and Puteri wings will be strengthened and given more leverage to pull in the younger people, he said.

Samy Vellu said MIC will also conduct a post-mortem on the performance of its candidates and the voting trends among the Indians.

Top leaders who lost were still elected party leaders who will continue to steer the party and the community towards uplifting their socio-economic condition.

“There will also be changes in the way the party operates,“ he said. “Many of the younger generation voted for the opposition due to various reasons.

Oh my god! He’s keeping on stressing that MIC needs to ‘start afresh’, ‘look towards a new beginning’ and even ‘bringing in young people who will take over the leadership’ but can’t he understand that all his ‘hopes’ could only be accomplished if he steps down first of all?

Dear Uncle Sam, please don’t be greedy for the next few years by sitting on the same seat over and over again! We need a new leader, a new face, a new spirit and last but not least, a new hope for our community!
