Samy Vellu interview stokes up emotions in MIC


KUALA LUMPUR: It was vintage Datuk Seri Samy Vellu. Except this time around, he was not condemning and fighting leaders he deems as his political “enemies” within the MIC but his own annointed successor as the party’s president.

Supporters of Datuk Seri G. Palanivel are up in arms over an interview he gave to Sunday Star which they claim is a scathing attack on Palanivel whom Samy Vellu personally groomed for over 20 years until he took over the party’s helm in 2010 when the veteran politician finally quit after 30 years as president.
