Welcome to ‘Samy-land’!
How does it feel so far my dear MIC fans? Enjoying ‘the Samy-Go-Round,’ are we? For those of you who are newcomers to this wonderland, “welcome to Samy-land!” And for those of you been here before, let me also welcome you back! Surely you’ve come back for more because the surprises at ‘Samy-land’ will always amaze you!
If you’re not yet familiar with the MIC’s latest rendition of ‘the Samy-Go-Round,’ let me tell you about this exciting adventure! According to Malaysiakini, “heads are expected to roll” with revelations of the latest “scandal” surrounding the “alleged irregularities in the awarding of contracts for maintenance of the party-run AIMST University.”
Oh, what excitement! What entertainment! Indeed, what an experience! Not even the ‘MIC communication team’ could dream up this kind of publicity for the main attraction at ‘Samy-land’.
Just in case, I want to make sure you don’t miss the main highlights of the latest revelations.
First, note that “Samy Vellu has since set up a three-member panel to investigate the alleged irregularities in awarding three of the five contracts, which he claimed had been given out at an inflated value.” But note that “the probe will not cover the contracts awarded for the grass-cutting services and canteen operations,” which allegedly the educational arm of the MIC, the MIED, “was instructed to revoke” and instead “its managers were told to reassign these to persons close to MIC president S Samy Vellu.”
