Samy Vellu: Who's more barbaric, more stupid?
Doesn't machan look so handsome in his new toupé?
Incensed by Makkal Osai, which labelled MIC supporters as barbarians for burning copies of the daily on Saturday in protest against its reporting, Samy Vellu said the reporter who wrote the story was more barbaric.
"Only a bigger barbarian recognises the smaller barbarians," he said.
The controversy stemmed from reports in Makkal Osai and Malaysia Nanban which quoted Samy Vellu at the Johor party convention as saying that former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad had not done anything for the Indian community.
Samy Vellu said those who wrote that story had not understood what he had said and it was a move to undermine him. The Works Minister said anybody who said Dr Mahathir had not done anything for Indians was stupid, and those who listened to them were more stupid.
On his promise to provide proof that his estranged deputy Datuk S. Subramaniam had a stake in the two dailies, Samy Vellu said he would release them when the time was right.
Earlier as he arrived to open the convention, Samy Vellu got into a heated argument at the lobby with a man.
The man, unhappy over not being picked as a delegate, hurled obscenities against Samy Vellu and left with several others after being advised by delegates.
