I was shocked at the outburst from the FT deputy minister Dato' M Saravanan carried exclusively by Malaysiakini. To begin with, i cant understand what the fuss is all about. A deadline is given for the people and communities to revert with comments and Malaysian Hindu Sangam sent in their comment ten days before the deadline about the missing temples and the crematoriums in the draft plan. Why is Saravana creating a deadline within a dealine? The ministy has an obligation to wait till the last minute of the deadline to compile the comments and then to objectively view them from all standpoints.
Why does Saravanan fear the Media? This is not the first time that he has critcised organisations and individuals who go the Media. It is complete ironny though that the very man who chides people for going to the Media does so himself at every available opportunity. The war of words between Saravanan and Selangor MB Tan Sri Khalid is a classic example. Finally both received a 'slap' on the face when the Kampugn Baru folk shut them up for good.

Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny"
