They have identified about 1,100 voting Indian youths in the two areas, and are explaining matters to them in one-on-one sessions.

“We have adopted a one-to-one approach to target these voters so that we can meet them and get to know their issues.

“Basically they are worried about hudud and rising costs of living because of the GST,” said Sivarraajh, who added that the MIC Youth is reaching them via social media such as Twitter, WhatsApp and Facebook, besides personally meeting them at their workplaces and homes.

Sivarraajh said that other topics of concern to Indian youths include those of business opportunities, skills training and education opportunities.

“We are promoting the ‘One Home One Entrepreneur’ scheme throughout the nation,” he said.

The ‘One Home One Entrepreneur’ scheme was previously reported as one set by the Management Council of the KL & Selangor Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KLSICCI) to elevate the economic standing of Indians in the country.

KLSICCI President V. Shanmuganathan had said the committee aspires to create 1,000 Indian entrepreneurs in the next two years with at least one entrepreneur in a family.

BN, he said, has supported numerous colleges and other training centres, all readily available to the youths.
