Heng: Trio aware they are

violating constitution

KUALA LUMPUR: The three MCA central committee (CC) members requisitioning for a second extraordinary general meeting (EGM) know their actions contravene the party constitution, said information and communication bureau chief Senator Heng Seai Kie.

If Wong Nai Chee, Datuk Liew Yuen Keong and Datuk Wee Jeck Seng insist on holding the EGM, they must modify and re-submit their resolution because the current motion had been rejected earlier by the party secretary-general, said Heng, who is also Wanita MCA secretary-general.

Heng said the three had requisitioned to hold an EGM, which would contravene Articles 35 and 41 of the party constitution.

“The secretary-general had already explained the grounds for rejecting their motion to convene the EGM.

“I am surprised that all three requisitionists, who knowingly have contravened the party constitution, are persisting in calling for an EGM,” she said in a press statement.

Heng urged all party members to give the greater unity plan an opportunity to succeed and to stop the in-fighting.

“It is within our will and ability to mobilise all resources to promote party reforms to regain the rakyat’s support and ultimately face the next general election,” she said.

Heng added that majority in the CC had accepted the greater unity plan during a meeting on Nov 3.

She said that at a previous CC meeting on Oct 15, party president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat did instruct for the convening of an EGM, but later found out that the proposal did not fulfil Article 41 of the party constitution.

The article states party polls may be held only if two-thirds of the CC members resign.

In Johor Baru, party veteran Datuk Freddie Long said the Chinese community was tired of the constant bickering among top MCA leaders.

“As for those ambitious ones, I think they should wait because there will be another party election in less than two years,” the former five-term assemblyman said yesterday.

    Found this comment in Malaysiakini :

    Multi Racial: 'Clash of the titans'? Please don't make me laugh. A disposed 19-day deputy president taking on the president is called 'clash of the titans'? It should read 'Liow and his gang hitting the wall'.

    These losers should just quit. In the first place, the previous EGM was not about removing Ong. It was about the three resolutions. But it was not good enough, based on MCA's constitution, to remove the president and the deputy president.

    Besides, between Ong and Chua, the command more than 95 percent of the delegates. Even if another EGM is called, we already know the answer. Another EGM will be a total waste of resources and cause more embarrassment to the MCA.

    To Liow and his supporters, if you cannot accept Ong as your leader, please quit and go somewhere else.

    Convening an illegal EGM to him is upholding the Constitution!!!
    Going against GUP accepted and endorsed by the CC is upholding the Constitution!!!!
    Minority 16 cc VS Majority the rest of the CC and 96% of CDs is DEMOCRACY!!!!!

    Put aside personal interest, support the unity plan. Do not hide under the excuse of "losing credibility" and persist with the infighting.This will only deteriorate the credibility not enhancing it. Why can't the trio and LTL/WKS/CMF support the unity plan ? Why are their concern ?
    Do not waste any more resource in those stunt, instead focus on the unity plan. If truly the plan is not an inclusive one, I trust the members will know what to do.
    It is my sincere hope that all parties close rank and move forward.
    The en bloc resignation of the discipline committee should not be taken as a protest against the president , rather if it is a protest, it is against the CC that converted sacking to suspension. Do not forget that the CC then comprised of LTL, WKS, CMF and the trio.

    Throw away the past and support the unity plan.

    SINCE THE PROPOSED "2811 EGM" IS NOT CARRIED OUT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PARTY CONSTITUTION, IT IS THEREFORE ILLEGAL AS FAR AS THE PARTY IS CONCERN. AND IF ILLEGAL, THEN ANY USE OF THE PARTY'S ASSETS, WHICH INCLUDE THE PARTY'S NAME IS ALSO ILLEGAL.

    THE ORGANISERS, THE PARTY MEMBERS AND THE REGISTRAR OF SOCIETIES SHOULD BE INFORMED OF THIS ILLEGALITY.

    IF NECESSARY A COURT ORDER COULD BE OBTAINED TO PREVENT THE ILLEGAL USE OF THE PARTY'S PROPERTIES.

    IT SHOULD BE CALLED "XXX GATHERING" AND NOT "MCA EGM".

    Dear Bobo,

    You think these lusers care for MCA?

    No, of course not !

    They are doing their work for their masters, and the money their masters gonna give them is the only thing that they care !

    Unfortunately, there are just way too much of such "members" within MCA.

    That's the another thing MCA has to taking care of --- either reform these members or show them the door.

    If joining MCA isn't for the good of MCA, then please, don't !
