[QUOTE="drag_addict, post: 2637716, member: 28664"] Seriously..I'm sick n tired of this thing already laa weii.. Can anyone tell me whats the ending to this "T***l movie" ?... [B]Malaysian activist asks India to impose sanctions on Malaysia[/B] Calcutta News.Net India should impose trade sanctions on Malaysia to pressurize the latter to adopt affirmative policies to uplift the conditions of its citizens of Indian origin, says a Malaysian leader of a movement demanding better opportunities for Indians. P Waytha Moorthy, president of Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf), was one of the chief organisers of a protest by Indian-origin Malaysians Nov 25 in Kuala Lumpur against alleged government discriminatory policies, which was met with stiff resistance from security authorities. The protest march was also in support a $4 trillion lawsuit filed in London in August by Hindraf, demanding that Britain compensate Malaysian Indians for bringing their ancestors to the country as indentured labourers and exploiting them. Along with his elder brother and another lawyer, Waytha Moorthy was charged with sedition and then discharged. But, there are now reports that the prosecution may be again filing charges against them in a higher court. Meanwhile, Waytha Moorthy has made India the first stop in his multi-national journey across United Kingdom, Netherlands and United States to garner pressure against the Malaysian government. Earlier, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had said that the issue was a matter of concern. But, Waytha Moorthy said, 'India could do much more'. 'As an outsider, India is an economic superpower. I can tell you that Malaysia respects India due to business interest,' he said, urging India to impose trade embargo against the Southeast Asian country. Moorthy believed that it would not be interference in Malaysia's internal affairs. 'It is a member of United Nations and if there is any violation in any state, then the international community can and should take action,' said the Malaysian Indian lawyer. He also asked Human Rights groups to send fact-finding missions to Malaysia, as well as petition the Malaysian Attorney General to drop charges of attempt to murder against 31 Indians. The lawyer-turned-activist asserted that he was a Malaysian first. 'While our parents may consider themselves immigrants, but we are born and brought up in Malaysia and therefore want to fight for our rights,' he stressed. Waytha Moorthy had earlier in Chennai met with the Tamil Nadu chief minister, K Karunanidhi, his daughter and leaders of AIADMK and MDMK. After arriving in Delhi, he met with BJP leaders, L. K. Advani and Jaswant Singh. 'I briefed Mr. Advani about our plight and he told me that he will take it up,' he said, but added that he was unable to meet Congress leaders so far. He leaves Friday for London. Indian-origin citizens constitute eight percent of the population in Malaysia. Several Malaysian Indians activists claim that Indians have been at a disadvantage at various levels due to affirmative policies for Malays since Independence, which had led them in education, social and economic factors.
