Hi frens…

As some of you know, i’m a volunteer in an association call ATMAH (non-profit organization). We are a group of volunteers conducting free tuition classes on every sunday 9.00am to 1.00pm for the poor kids who stays near to the PJ, Subang and Sunway area(kids age 7-17). In order to support the kids, every year we plan a Treasure Hunt to raise fund for the poor kids who live around the rural area such as Kampung Medan, Kampung Lindungan, Desa Mentari, Rawang,Bukit Jalil and etc. Therefore we really need our friends and relatives to help/support us by any means or even by joining the hunt as well as supporting us by sponsoring hampers.

Herewith i attach the application form for the Treasure Hunt which consist further information about the hunt and our ATMAH PROJECT.

Feel free to contact me if u need more information about the Hunt and if you would like to sponsor few hampers to support us or assist us in this event.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Rumitha Munisamy

Bro,

I came across a job recruitment website (for Singaporeans) where as the recruitment is open to all nationalities, EXCEPT INDIANS!!!! THIS IS A BIG DISCRIMINATION TO THE INDIANS!! Please inform everyone about this!!

A quick check by me confirms the information, but not the discrimination! Here are some screenshots of the recruitment page:

Here’s a short description of the company:

BITECH International Pte Ltd is part of a transnational conglomerate founded in 1988. BITECH has offices in Singapore, Malaysia, India, United Arab Emirates, Sri Lanka and operates in the US as Transworld Information Systems Inc. With over 700 software professionals on board worldwide and having accumulated over 3000 person years of experience, BITECH is a truly global ICT Professional Services Company.

The job offered is: SAP HR (Techno – Functional) Consultant

It seems that only INDIAN NATIONALITIES are not eligible to apply for this job, and I don’t think it would somewhat affect the Malaysian Indians or Singaporean Indians. But, why wanna reject the Indians from India for this job? Isn’t it harsh to state there “EXCEPT INDIANS” raspingly?

Kedah: School sports day selection on Thaipusam Day

Dear Sir,
I hope you can publish this in your blog. The publication can be an effective deterrent for future.

I am parent of Form 1 student of Sek Men Taman Hi-Tech in Kulim. I attended the school Sports Day yesterday and I am just shocked at what I saw.

The Malaysian government started the National Service Program, with the objective of racial integration, my foot. That 3-month stint is just a show to make money when the situation in schools are totally different.

This is what I saw yesterday.

Very few Indians participated in the sports event. Indians are suppose to be good in running, but there were very few, I asked the boys. And they said the reason is because the final selection was done on Thaipusam Day. Although it was not a public holiday, Indians took leave and went to temples that day. The school purposely chose that day to select the final participants. That was purposely done.

March Pass
It was racially divided. The army/police cadet was 100% Malays whereas Cadet
Bomba was 100% non-Malays.
The army cadet uniform was perfect, 100% given, where as the Bomba was crazy, some wore T-Shirts, different kinds of shoes
because all the cost need to be borne by the parents. Why?

I really felt very saddened at what happened. It is a bullshit to say the Education Ministry is looking into ways to integrate the races, but in fact they are purposely segregating them.

Is this what the government say ‘We care for all races, we are fair to all’????
