In
1938,
noting that the bulk of the Indian population formed a landless proletariat
and despairing of the ability of the factionalized Indian community to unite in pursuit
of common objectives, activist K.A. Neelakanda
Ayer
forecast that the fate of
indians
in
Malaya would be to become Tragic orphans
-
of whom India has forgotten and Malaya
looks down upon with contempt Ayer s words continue to resonate; as a minority group
in a nation dominated politically by colonially derived narratives of race and ethnicity
and riven by the imperatives of religion, the general trajectory of the economically
and politically impotent Indian community has been one of increasing irrelevance.
This book explores the history of the modern Indian presence in Malaysia, and traces
the vital role played by the Indian community in the construction of contemporary
Malaysia« In this comprehensive new study, Carl Vadiveila Belle offers fresh insights
on the Indian experience spanning the period from the colonial recruitment of Indian
labour to the post-Merdeka political, economic and social marginalization of Indians.
While recent Indian challenges to the political status quo
—
a regime described as
that of benign neglect
—
promoted Indian hopes of reform, change and uplift, the
author concludes that the dictates of political discourse permeated by the ideologies of
communalism offer limited prospects for meaningful change.
