The Chinese community in Johor are urged to participate in a survey called " Suara Hati Johor " to find out the wishes and expectations of the people and be highlighted in the government's policy.

"The participation of the Chinese community is less encouraging although the survey was launched last month. Everyone should take the opportunity to be involved because after this, there should no be parties questioning the government as we have provided the platform," said Tourism, Trade and Consumer Affairs committee chairperson Tee Siew Kiong.
