Hindraf Makkal Sakthi chairman Waythamoorthy Ponnusamy wants to
return home after over four years in involuntary exile in London where
he has political asylum as a human rights advocate. His homecoming, with
or without an international passport, has been set for Aug 1.
Waytha would like to return home in dignity but apparently the Home Ministry isn’t playing ball. The Ministry is yet to advise the Malaysian High Commission via the Foreign Ministry to issue Waytha with a passport. He travels at the moment on a UN document issued by the British Government. Suhakam the Malaysian human rights organisation, if it’s worth its salt, should take note of Waytha’s predicament. The same goes for other NGOs in the country.
