WSL: Liverpool Deals Chelsea a Blow in Title Chase with Draw
MIC delegates consider quitting Barisan due to sidelining by UMNO and unity government dynamics, risking loss of 3 state seats and 35 councilor positions, party sources say.
- At the Shah Alam AGM on Nov 16, delegates will consider whether the Malaysian Indian Congress should quit Barisan, amid warnings quitting risks a political dead end.
- MIC has lost ground after a shifting political landscape, with grassroots members saying the party was sidelined by 'big brother' Umno after joining the unity government with Pakatan Harapan.
- The party's remaining offices — from state seats to village headmen — include state seats, an exco position, councillors, village headmen and special officers in Johor, Melaka, and Perak.
- Delegates say they will likely leave the final call to MIC president Tan Sri S.A Vigneswaran after weighing many factors, as leaving Barisan now would displace disgruntled officeholders.
- Party strategists emphasise that Barisan must collectively regain public trust, noting that senior figures argue its parties need each other and Prof Datuk Dr Sivamurugan Pandian advised MIC against walking out given its history with Alliance and Barisan.
