Indians want Tamil announcements at airports

MANY Indians are unhappy that there is no announcement in Tamil at the international airports around the country.
Malaysia Nanban reported that the community also complained that the television news readers had failed to promote Indian culture through their dressing and that deejays on radio channels, especially Thr. Raaga, were not fluent in Tamil.
These issues were highlighted to Human Resources Minister Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam at a function organised by the Malaysia Tamil Youth Bell Club recently.
In his speech, Subramaniam, who agreed to bring the matter up to the Government, said television and radio channels should use proper Tamil in their programmes.
He said the influence of Western media and culture among the community’s youths had resulted in the lack of support for the community’s own religious and cultural programmes, adding that Indian organisations should act to preserve the Tamil language.
Subramaniam, who is also MIC secretary-general, said the party had urged the Government to include religious studies as a subject in Tamil schools as a way of inculcating moral values in Indian schoolchildren.
