  1. what is the problem of the title of indian…why .ur community is small to make noise ..

  2. Please behave yourselves and amend the word “Indian” to “Malaysian Punjabi Sikh”. Our people have been dicked around for centuries. Enough is enough.

  3. Proud moments to the Sikh Community across the Universe. Cheers to all of you up there with prestigious award and recognition.

    This achievemts are earned over generation of faithfulness and loyalties of our forefathers and on meritorious grounds. My only request to these chiefs in their respective capacity to propagate their duties not only in their professional capacities but to stand as role models in their respective Sikh community they serve.

    Let you be looked upon at as a reflection on efforts of our forefathers.

    Please do your utmost best to guide our youth to always reflect to our multicultural society of our values and pride of being The Sikhs we hail from who had given their lives to stand by their words, their loyalty and their religious teachings….

    The past made what we are today and we today are going to make what our future children are going to portray. Let’s put our hands together to value our past and upkeep our dignity and respect in humility.
