Muhyiddin slams Samy's 'rude' son .

: Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin regards MIC president S Samy Vellu's son Vell Paari as “rude” for blaming Umno for the problems in MIC. Muhyiddin, who is also Umno deputy president, said Umno strongly refuted the allegation made by Vell Paari

Muhyiddin was asked by reporters on Vell Paari's accusation against Umno published in FMT, saying that Umno had used "political assassins" to divide MIC.He was met after attending a gathering with teachers in the Muar and Ledang districts at the Pagoh Sports Complex, here, today.
The BN deputy chairman also asked Samy Vellu to advise his son not to make any more statements that could hurt the sensitivities of another component party.Muhyiddin said Vell Paari had a vested interest in the current MIC crisis "as he is the party president's son"."Whatever it is, the prime minister and I have said that we want the crisis in MIC to be resolved as soon as possible."But any solution to a conflict in any BN component party should be based on justice, transparency and the party's constitution and stipulated procedures."This is what we have done in Umno, even when we had to sack party members for breaching party discipline," he was quoted as saying by Bernama.

Muhyiddin also stressed on the importance of BN component parties solving their internal problems fast to make BN's position strong under the leadership of Najib Tun Razak.
Vell Paari: So be it

Meanwhile, Umno vice-president Mohd Shafie Apdal said Umno had never interfered in the internal affairs of other BN component parties, including MCA when it had a serious leadership crisis recently.
He said he was disappointed with the allegation made by Vell Paari against Umno and that it must be proven.
Shafie said a crisis in any component party would affect efforts to strengthen BN, and it was only natural for any BN leader to be concerned about the crisis and wishing it be resolved soonest possible.
"Expressing concern doesn't mean we are meddling in the internal affairs or direction of another component party."If there are dissenting voices within the (component) party itself, why should Umno be blamed for its problems?" he said.Contacted by FMT later, Vell Paari said he was merely expressing what is in the hearts and minds of most non-Malays.“If I am to be labelled rude for this, so be it,” he added, declining to elaborate.
