April 30, 2013 Wargam is calling on Indian voters to back BN and not vote for change instead. PETALING JAYA: Casting their ballots for Barisan Nasional over the decades is the root cause of all the Indian community’s progress.

Dear fellow Malaysians, peace. I am writing this open letter because I am deeply concerned about two trends within the electorate which may have an adverse impact upon the future of our nation.

I was rather intrigued by a news item in The Star on Monday which said that if Opposition wins in GE-13, only Malay candidates will be named for the posts of Prime Minister and Menteri Besars.

The remaining 20 per cent are non–deliverables. We shall soon see why. Let’s look at PK’s promises one by one. 1. To create one million jobs in the agricultural, [...]
At the rate Pakatan leaders are contradicting each other, it is becoming increasingly clear that they cannot provide a credible alternative to BN. A simple example of their credibility gap is how they have been addressing the PTPTN issue. To date 1.9 million students have availed themselves of PTPTN loans to the tune of RM [...]
Attempts to brush off the links between the founding chairman of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) Nur Misuari and Pakatan Rakyat’s Anwar Ibrahim only raise more questions.
