Najib Denies Govt Disregards MIC's Suggestions


KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 3 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak today denied claims by certain quarters that the government has disregarded the views and suggestions of the MIC on improving the lot of the Indians in the country.

"It is not true. I am refuting the claims that the government pays scant attention to whatever suggestions or views put forward by the MIC," the Deputy Prime Minister told reporters after opening the MIC's special assembly at the Putra World Trade Centre here.

In fact, he said, the living standard of the Indians had improved due to the MIC's efforts.

"The government always pays attention and strives to solve the socio- economic problems of the Indians in the country.

"We should not allow ourselves to be tricked by the opposition who can say anything. But all this (development programme) is a commitment which the government is able to fulfil," he said.
