Dear leaders of our country,
You have been entrusted with immense power to lead us and guide Malaysians to higher level. You have all the resources at your disposal to do all the necessary things to make Malaysia a better place to live. You have all the advisors that one can get to help Malaysians achieve higher goals.
But take a look at us. The people of Malaysia. Do you think that we ever feel safe in Malaysia? Don't just see the circle around you, they have nothing to worry. They have all the police to run around for them. Please look at everyday people who work, live and pay taxes. It is the same people, who come from different background, different races, different colors but forms a colourful society known as Malaysians. Please take a moment to think about us.Please do take a moment and ask yourself, are you doing all your best for the Malaysians?
NO! Look at the crimes around us. Look at the kind of crimes that Malaysians have to endure to live in Malaysia as responsible citizen. Look at the newspaper and you will see how snatch theft victims dies from injuries, a youth was killed by snatch thieves when he tried to chase them, a mother of two died during robbery, and the list is very long. In that list, you can find my father's name Datuk S.Krishnasamy. 42 weeks ago, my father was gunned down in Johor Bahru MIC building.
Lives are taken away without any mercy. Is the life of a Malaysian is so valueless that it is not worth protecting? Remember, all this lives put you in the office, and now that you have all the power, you have failed to safeguard the safety of these people. You have failed all these people. You have failed their families. You have failed their loved ones. You have failed to uphold the trust given to you.
Take a look at it in the interest of the nation. Working, responsible Malaysians are killed by useless, dangerous criminals. If this goes on, Malaysia will lose its good citizens and instead will be filled up with useless scumbags. Who is going to work to improve the country, who is going to school to teach the students, who is going to pay taxes to build the nation, who is going to bring Malaysia to the next step? These murderers, these snatch thieves or these criminals? What is the hope that we have for our country? Malaysia is losing her shine because of these criminals.
Dear leaders of the country, you still don't get it, do you? If good Malaysians are killed by bad Malaysians, then what do you have at the end? ONLY BAD MALAYSIANS! Is that what you want? Is that the legacy that you want to leave for your children? Is that the kind of dream that you have for Malaysians? Remember Malaysians, the people that voted for you, the same people that have to move aside every time your car drives by with a 'thousand' police bikers?
The journey of a million miles start with a single step. You too can take the first step. You have been trusted by Malaysians. Our future depends on the steps that you take.
Give us back our rights to feel safe in Malaysia.
Give us back the future that these criminals are snatching away from us.
Put a stop to all these criminals. Gone are the days when the police would tell us lame reasons and expect us to believe them. We want firm actions from the police. We want to see justice.
Dear leaders of Malaysia, be proactive when dealing with the problems that Malaysians face. Don't give us lip service that you yourself would not accept. Don't just tell us that the police are looking into the matter, find out what are the police doing, are they actually doing something or are they just beating around the bush? Do the police actually help to solve the crimes or just close the cases without proper investigations? How come the crime rate is so high and how come the cases solved are very less compare to the crime rate?
How come the number of criminals are growing at an alarming rate? Look at some of the criminals, some of them are quite young but they have been in prison several times. Yet they don't make an effort to change and worst still, many other youths are following their footsteps. The crooks become a role model for other youths and very soon, it will become a cool thing to be an ex-inmate like some of the rappers.
Are our prison system a failure? Or are the police not doing their best to eradicate crime? Youths are seeing crime as the best vehicle to immense wealth. They have nothing to fear as the police are very lackadaisical in their actions. Moreover, crime in Malaysia pays faster and better. They get to drive big cars, carry guns and shoot anyone they do not like. Why study for 5 years for a degree, work for a living and pay taxes that goes to the police? And the dear leaders of Malaysia do not care much about what happens to Malaysians, as long their family and friends are not disturbed. Why even bother to be a responsible Malaysian? Lets all be BAD Malaysians, that would really make Malaysia 'stand out' in the eyes of the world.
Dear leaders of Malaysia, we want to be able to trust you over the promises that you give us. We want to feel proud of our leaders. I have met and written to many leaders over my father's case. Many leaders from many political parties and from different races. But most of them would give me the same answer that police are looking into it. If police are looking into it, why is it after 42 weeks no one has been charged? Have you ever thought about it? Dr.Joe's case was closed even without anyone being charged. Is that what you mean by police are looking into it? There were several people arrested under remand for my father's murder but they were immediately released. One person, who is a politician himself and is a son to a senior politician, even got arrested under EO but was released a few hours later in the middle of the night. There are no more suspects and the case has gone cold. Now, tell me dear leaders of Malaysia, do you think police are looking into my father's case? Next time, please think twice before giving out such answers. The murder has hurt us so much, empty promises hurt us even more.
Dear leaders of Malaysia, when I write to you, when I come to see you, I do it because I am in great pain. I did not ask anything else from you. I just want justice for my father. I lost my father to violence. Half baked answers would not cure my pain. It would not bring justice to a cruel murder. I am sure all the families affected are feeling great amount of pain to lose someone to violence. Nobody wants to see their family members die this way.
Dear leaders of Malaysia, you must be smart, else it would be very hard to convince people to vote for you. Please don't be fooled by the excuses that the police give and don't try to fool us by giving us lies. Take the first step to make Malaysia a better place. Please let good Malaysians live and throw bad Malaysians into the prison so that Malaysia would prosper and grow to a nation that we can be proud of.
- Raj Kumar Krishnasamy.

Firstly condolences.
But really you need to stop being naive.
Pleading to the "dear" leaders will never bring your dad's killers to book.
Hoping for the "dear" leaders to bring the country forward is not going to work.
Wishing for the "dear" leaders to make this a safer place is just not on.
All your pleads, wishes or hopes will be in vain.
The "dear" leaders are more keen to satisfy their lust for power & money & sex.
Governing the nation is incidental to their ambition to acquire immense wealth.
Get real Raj and best wishes.
