Don’t blame young Indians for questioning MIC’s contributions, says Saravanan
The MIC deputy president says the contributions of the party’s past leaders risk being forgotten because much of their history has not been adequately recorded.
Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC) deputy president M Saravanan has addressed concerns among young Indians questioning the party's contributions to the nation. Saravanan argued that the blame should not fall on the youth, but rather on the party's failure to document the achievements of its past leaders. He emphasized the importance of preserving this history within the next decade, as the current generation may be the last to have firsthand knowledge of these contributions.
The deputy president highlighted several significant roles played by former MIC leaders, such as V Manickavasagam, in transportation, telecommunications, infrastructure, and social security, citing examples like the development of Malaysia's first airport, Malaysian Airline System (MAS), and the establishment of technical and vocational education programmes.
