MCA should unite against Umno-Gerakan pressures: DAP
DAP chairperson Lim Kit Siang today suggested that the two feuding factions in MCA unite to ensure that the party leadership does not buckle under the "unreasonable, unfriendly and undemocratic" Umno and Gerakan pressures to sack the MCA duo Tan Cheng Liang and Lim Boo Chang.
In the light of MCA deputy president Lim Ah Lek's decision to make a comeback to active politics, Kit Siang said it should provide the occasion for both the MCA Team A and B factions to unite to ensure that the party is able to withstand the pressures from Umno and Gerakan.
The two Penang MCA assembly representatives, Tan Cheng Liang (Jawi) and Lim Boo Chang (Datuk Keramat) have been severely reprimanded for abstaining in the DAP motion to defer the RM1.02 billion Penang Outer Ring Road (Porr) project until the RM400 million Jelutong Expressway is completed.
