HINDRAF Illegal? What’s the difference?
The Hindu Rights Actions Force (Hindraf) has been declared an illegal organisation from today, said Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar.
In a statement issued here, Syed Hamid said the decision to declare Hindraf as an illegal organisation was made following the ministry being satisfied with facts and evidence that showed Hindraf had and was being used for unlawful purposes and posed a threat to public order and morality.
“Based on powers vested under Section 5(1) of the Societies Act, Hindraf from today is declared an illegal organisation,” he said.

I’m confused here. How the hell our beloved government could simply ban an unregistered organisation? The scenario seems to be like this. Let’s say my friends together with myself formed a group called “M1 group” and let’s assume that it has never been registered. Whenever we perform some of our activities, the police would interfere and spray water cannons towards us and threaten to arrest each of us. So, if the government did not liked our group and they wanna “ban” it simply because they do not like our activities, how would that affect us, besides hindering us from registering our group? Even after our group “has been banned” and we are continuing to do our activities as usual, then WHAT’S THE BLOODY DIFFERENCE in it “getting banned” and being “unregistered”?
Here’s another scenario. Let’s say there is a guy named Ramu and he doesn’t have any birth certificate nor an identification card with him. The government did not like him to be named “Ramu” and deemed the name to be illegal. So, if I greeted him like “Dei Ramu”, would I be arrested?
Back to our story. Since HINDRAF has been ‘declared illegal’, so what are the consequences out of this? Will the police arrest anyone who goes by the name of HINDRAF? Would those JPJ/traffic police stop those vehicles with “Valge HINDRAF” stickers and create a ruckus in the middle of the road? Will the police simply go around and arrest those individuals who wore those “Valge HINDRAF” T-shirts? What happens to all the high-profiled HINDRAF bloggers then? Would they be arrested for supporting an ‘illegal organisation’? Could someone enlighten me with all these?
We saw HINDRAF’s overall struggle, we saw how the leaders fought for the wellbeing of all Malaysian Indians, we saw how they were neglected, we saw how the government went against HINDRAF and its ‘demands’ and finally, we saw ‘hope’ through them. So now, if the government is declaring HINDRAF as ‘illegal’ and asking the Malaysian Indians to simply forget about it as time goes by, well, that would be a lame idea.

Mr. Velan,
I agree with you tht we should be united and the spirit should be kept alive within us. But i see no reason for us to give them an excuse to arrest any one of us. No need to do things tht displeases these monkeys, not at all, most battles are won quietly and we shall adopt such an approach.
This is the kind of Government tht only allocates 1-2 million dollars anually for Hindu Temples, but they are willing to spend 20-200million dollars setting up prisons for Indians. So why take the risk? believe in God, believe in ourselves and we will surely succeed.
Have you all read today’s Malaysia Today? There was a statement by Musa Hitam saying Hindraf is a secret society.. LOL does he even know what does secret society means??
And you know what’s even more funnier, they decided to “ban” a secret society. Ironic.
they can only arrest few hundreds of us but not the 25 thousand hindraf lions tht attend the 25 nov 2007 rally .
Another stupid attempt from the stupid Home minister…He is only good for talk COCK…Why dont we ban the Botak Fellow…and declare home minister as illegal….
Anyhow..my dear indian bro’s and sis’s stay calm…Dont give a damn to whatever nonsense he talk..If you guys heard any nonsense from these BN idiots , just ignore..as they are good for nothing!!
i knw why , because HINDRAF cause public disturbance = attend Pak Lah’s Hari Raya open house ramai ramai , so kena band terus , lol .
