Former taxi driver S. Manikavasagam’s political stunts propelled him to high position in the Justice party (PKR). His latest stunt: threatening to quit his party position for the demolition of Sri Mahakaliaman Hindu temple in Ampang.
Apparently, he is now satisfied with the one week suspension of the officer who ordered the demolition and thus retracted his resignation.
Manikavasagam did this drama of tendering resignation once before in 2006 protesting Thirutukaruppan's (Nalla) entry to PKR. After all, you can’t expect every politician to be like Zaid Ibrahim. (....more) |

Tuesday, Dec 30 2008 -- A new political clown has emerged in the Malaysian political scene after the March 8th. political earthquake that buried many other clowns especially the well known clown, PPP chief Keyveyas.
The Kapar Parliamentary MP, Manikavasagam is the new clown entertaining the Malaysian public with his foolish statements to the Malaysian government controlled media. He has been threatening to quit Justice Party (PKR) for some time. Probably he wants to follow his father in law, Wilson, foot step of party hopping or follow his former mentor and traitor Ezam. |
