DAP Gelang Patah MP Lim Kit Siang has made another classical move to blame MCA for misleading Umno on DAP Seputeh MP Teresa Kok’s defamatory Chinese New Year video clip. When Lim and DAP are crying to teach Umno a lesson, all it can do is to attack MCA just like when DAP declared that it wanted to punish Umno in the previous general election, it could only contest in seats traditionally contested by MCA, Gerakan and MIC.

Now that Kok’s video has created havoc, Lim does not dare to confront Umno directly but only picks on MCA possibly because Lim has yet to watch Kok’s video and he is not aware that the video comes in Chinese and English subtitles.  

Lim claimed that MCA has misled Umno ministers to demonise Kok but he is just talking through his hat. Where is his proof? Does he think that Rural and Regional Development Minister Mohd Shafie Apdal is unable to read the English subtitles, too?

Lim wanted MCA deputy president Wee Ka Siong to apologise to Teresa Kok for asking Kok to apologise over her video clip and since Mohd Shafie was also present, he blamed MCA for misleading the minister.

He should learn about the incident before planning to accuse or defame others. In fact, Mohd Shafie had expressed his dissatisfaction against Kok way before Wee urged Kok to apologise over her video.

In the issue of PKR state assemblyperson Lee Khai Loon who insulted the prime minister with spinach, Lim had told Lee to apologise to the prime minister, but in this case, he has totally changed to blame MCA for Kok’s catastrophe. This is the evidence that Lim fears to take on Umno face to face.

Everyone should pay the price for the wrong he committed, politicians included.
