MCA Youth chief o­ng Tee Keat made a brief appearance at the party disciplinary committee hearing today to hand over a written submission o­n the charge that he had tarnished the party's image.

Ong, who is also deputy sports and youth minister, met with the disciplinary committee for about five minutes at the MCA headquarters in Kuala Lumpur and later held a press conference at the same venue.

MCA initiated disciplinary proceedings against him for alleging that the party was infiltrated by triad elements, casting doubt o­n the management of the Chang Ming Thien Foundation fund, and for not being respectful of the leadership.

Ong - who is also party vice-president - is aligned to Team B, the faction led by deputy president Lim Ah Lek and which is in open conflict with president Dr Ling Liong Sik's Team A.
