All my articles, first paragraph allocated for the title definition and explanation. No difference this time either. Who is head of MIC since last three decade ? I no need answer, but you already know the name of that famous man, you admit or not : Dato Seri Samy Vello. Why suddenly I'm talking about this topic, actually not suddently , this topic in my mind since very long time already. We can ask this question in another interesting angle : "Dato Seri Samy in power for 3 decades, is that because of his ability or disability of Malaysian Indian Community?"
A politician being president of a political party for thirty years, not a easy job at all. As a normal citizens we barely don't know the strangle and barriers faced by a politician to win a post. Even the pressure when holding small post is very high. Imagine the pressure and barriers face by one single man since last 30 years, yet he manage to sustain the post as a president of that party. He faced many problems , listed from ethical issue to financial issue. Can be said there is no issue he never been faced in his political carrier and as the president of that political party. After thirty years, group of people in his party started to not giving him full support, yet he still manage to hold the post as the president of the party quite comfortably. Is that a great, outstanding achievement? He build good relationship with leaders with other races, build strong regime internally. Build army of soldiers with "YES DATO SERI" mentality. He become immortal within his party in 30 years time.
On the other hand, 30 years back , a community get a good, young ,and vibrant leader taking charge as the president of the party which representing their community. Days weeks months , and few years past by, and the same community feel they becoming weak. Finally they realise the president once they say as great leader become less vibrant in voicing out the community's needs. Worse the the president start to involve with many issues. Sacking the deputy president as he want, fail to manage the money invested by community he represent all this time, and so on. Many leaders from the community start to appear as the saviour of the community. But the community fail to realize that , the same saviors later will lead to destroy of unity within the community. Many issues appeared: not enough seat in public universities, not enough support to start own business, temple demolishing. Now the community awake, fill with knowledge. They use their full strength to destroy the regime built by the president since last thirty years.
BUT, sad...... the community fail to achieve want they wanted. Why ?? In this thirty years , this community went through age or era which make them weak internally caused by many factors. Lack of unity , caused by to many saviors from one small community. Mentality of the majority members of the community , just will discuss like a hero about the problem of the community in front of the TV and Stalls , but fail to do their part to save the community. Reason "namekeyenda ithe tevve illate vellei (tamil language)", but only talk like a big hero. Heavy migration of the educated members of the community to other countries. Rather than go there and help back the community in the origin country. Members of the community who migrate , tend to migrate and forget. Weak religious education and temple functions worsen the level of unity in this community. Now they helpless and too weak to change their own leader and the saviors having their own problem.
Hence , being president of MIC for 3 Decades : Ability of Dato Seri Samy Vello or disability of the Community Itself ?

Very well written article. My humble respect towards you brother.
Anyway, I believe it is because the disability of the people that had led to his success over the decades. No doubt he has the ability, but all which is supported by a massive amount of money. His ability to throw in massive amount of money had led to many strong supporters.
Indians are however far more awake now. Let us see.
thanks durai bro,
another article on the way....
