![]() KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 28 — Amid criticisms against its alleged failures to the Indian community, Barisan Nasional (BN) announced today the entry of two new member parties — Persatuan India Malaysia and the Punjabi Party of Malaysia (PPM). The announcement, made by BN chairman and prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, comes less than a month after Hindraf chief P. Waytha Moorthy’s abrupt resignation from Cabinet — a move to protest the government’s alleged transgressions against ethnic Indians here. According to a previous report online, PPM, which was formed in 1986, had repeatedly failed to gain admission into BN in the past, with at least six applications. The Punjabi-based party is said to represent five per cent of the 130,000-strong Sikh community in the country. A search on PIM online returned no information. more: http://my.news.yahoo.com/
