The cabinet reshuffle announced by Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad will help end the protracted crisis in MCA, said its president Ong Ka Ting today.

"The new appointments were made without bias or in favour to (Team) A or B and would have a positive impact on the party and build unity in MCA," he said when met at the Parliament lobby.

Ong also expressed gratitude to the premier for showing confidence and respect for the recommendations submitted by him earlier.
