The Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC) wants the Government to provide more funding for Indian entrepreneurs.

Its president, S. Samy Vellu, said that since 2008, the MIC-owned Social Strategic Foundation (YSS) and Tekun have provided loans totalling RM11mil to 1,481 Indian businessmen.

"I have directed YSS to conduct a study on the progress achieved by the loan recipients.

"We want to know how many have succeeded in their businesses," he said yesterday. (ANI)
