MCA Youth has denied DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang’s statement that Barisan Nasional component parties are keeping silent on the tabling of PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang’s private member’s bill.

Its secretary-general Leong Kim Soon claimed that everyone, especially the Chinese community, was aware how MCA was the first to oppose the syariah enactment.

“MCA president Liow Tiong Lai also stressed that MCA’s stance remained unchanged in opposing the syariah enactment, and even staked his Cabinet post for this matter, urging all BN component parties to stand together in opposing the implementation of the syariah enactment.
