PPP (People Progressive Party), a mosquito party, chief and political clown Kayveas equated the recently concluded Maika AGM to a toddy shop. Next, you may hear our honorable Kinabatangan MP Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin and his racist ilks to belittle the entire Indian community in Parliament. ( ......more) |

Maika Holdings AGM |
Aug, 30 2007 |
As expected, Maika AGM today at Sime Darby Convention centre was full of dazzling fireworks; heckling, hurling abuses, vulgar words, pushing and shoveling between Samy and Subra camps.

Ex-MIC CWC member to file case against Maika
Thursday, October 04, 2007
As reported by imol a few days ago, more lawsuits are to be filed against Maika Holdings founded by MIC president Samy Vellu where his good son Vell Paari is running the show.
Today, K.P.Samy, an ex-MIC central working committee member, is filing an injunction with eight others to stop the sale of Maika’s well managed ‘cash cow’ insurance arm Oriental Capital Assurance Berhard (OCAB). K.P.Samy run his own travel agency business in Klang, is one of the few remaining staunch supporters of former MIC deputy president S.Subramaniam.
Nesa cooperative has already obtained an injunction to stop the sale. The case will be heard on 08/10/09. Many other lawsuits are expected to be filed before the hearing.
On Samy Vellu side, local actress Sujatha’s brother and Vell Paari have each filed lawsuits separately against Makkal Osai daily over Sujatha’s suicide reporting. Good business for lawyers. |
