Reaching out to the poor


A helping hand: Jaspal (second right) carrying out his task at Kampung Rusa, near Sungai Petani, Kedah.

“IF you listen to their problems, you’ll run away,” said MIC vice-president Datuk Jaspal Singh as he marched to visit poverty-stricken Indians living in Kampung Rusa about 11km from Sungai Petani town.

Jaspal is going on the ground so that MIC could win back Bukit Selambau, one of the two state seats in the Merbok parliamentary seat. He was on an evening walkabout to check on the needs of the villagers.
