Kuala Lumpur, Feb 8: The Malaysian Hindu Sangam (MHS) has declared war on alcoholism as it is affecting the country's younger generation.

He said a tier-based tax must be enforced based on alcohol content, instead of the standard ten percent now.

He also called for the setting up of a centre in the long-term to handle prevention, research and rehabilitation, The Star reports.

Malaysian Hindu Sangam declares war on alcoholism

Hindu Sangam should declare war against conversion instead of alcoholism. When there is a preventive action against conversion automatically the value of Hindu religion can be lifted to the highest level among hindus. Then not only alcoholism but gangsterism also can be reduced. Hindus main problem is they are being brainwashed easily and got converted to others religion. If this thing continues, finally Malaysia Hindu Sangam can be closed. So please open your mind and think broader.

Alcholism

If Alcholism is banned then all the indian youths will be consuming drugs than what hindu sangham is going todo. All those consuming drugs should be put in the lock up for 4 days. Hindu Sangham dont over react like mic. Come with concrete ideas and what hindu sangham has done for the upcoming of the indian youths. I think mic has done much more than the hindu sangham. Have thevaram classes in the primary classes fight for the the rights for this religous classes, start from standard one than you can see vast transformation. If a child steals in the young age we tell its a bad habit, the same goes for alcholism and drugs.Dont over react and be childish.Work closely with mic or close the hindu sangham. Learn from Dato Sri Samyvellu he knows what is good for the indian youths. Not once he had told lock up the youths for alcholism. Go and survey how many of your hindu sangham members are consuming alcohol and how their family is being neglected.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES

Come out with ideal measures to overcome the alcholism amongst youths. Banned or fine the shop keepers for selling alcholic drinks to minor. Revoke their licence and spread your education of alcholism through schools and workshops. No use to lock-up them for 4 days, the problem will still exists.

Constructive Plans

To my knowledge Hindu Sangam body was formed in 1967. As all learned Hindus what have they done for hindus. I can say 000% Now here comes a brainny Hindu Sangam member to jail people who consump alchol. I belive he is mixing too much with our brainless politicians. The best way is advise the government to have age limit in purchasing or consuming alcohol. The Sangam should not think for Hindus only, they should think for all Malaysians. Do not be narrowminded.
Think in a positive manner. Here you are talking Hindus you are actually sagregating the Hindus and later blame other races. Come on my learned friends, what ever we do let us do as 1Malaysia.

Alcoholism

Punishing a person will not get any good return. Sometimes may make things worst. Look into what they are lacking in or their expectations and plan a fruitful strategy based on hindu morals. Give love . love can change any person. Anbe Sivam. God is Love. By serving them we can divert their attention from any immoral activities. The question here is are we ready at least at your own area.
