Liow sounds like 'off-key Chinese opera singer'

'He is sounding worse than a off-key Chinese opera singer with an equally off tune supporting ensemble. This gruesome threesome has flushed every shred of dignity left to the pathetic MCA has down the political toilet.'

Fresh polls only way out: Liow says it again

Jacob George: In the American legal system, it is called 'entrapment' and the defence lawyers will have a field day in court and the damages will run into millions, not forgetting the political fallout. But I fully agree that this matter should be re-opened and there's no need to be a political scientist to know whose names will emerge.

We forget that laws were broken, there was an invasion of privacy, there was illegal recording and massive distribution of a personal and private relationship which was none of anybody's business.

Those behind had the motive, the opportunity, the finance, the network and they controlled a certain group of media. They did it not because they 'had the love of Jesus in their hearts' but because it was the 'political kill' of an opponent who was and still is well-respected as a person, politician and ex-minister.

Takjamin: Put two lawyers on opposite sides and you will get two divergent opinions on a very simple statement. Can anybody trust them to say that their call for an EGM is proper?

Pathetic: Liow Tiong Lai is sounding worse than a off-key Chinese opera singer with an equally off tune supporting ensemble. This gruesome threesome has flushed every shred of dignity left to the pathetic MCA has down the political toilet.

This by repeating the plaintive pleas to the bully in the room. Oh, how the founders of this once great party must be turning over in their graves.

Nicholas Lim Ming Xhin: The 'snoop squad' is real. Otherwise, who would have spent the effort and money to record Chua Soi Lek in a hotel room, burn the recording into thousands of DVDs and distribute it across the country?

These things need financial backing as well as political muscle. So it is very relevant for us to find out the truth about the 'snoop squad' and not dismiss it as an outdated matter.

Laws were broken (invasion of privacy, illegal recordings, distributing of pornography) and people need to be held accountable. Is Liow Tiong Lai afraid about the truth of the 'snoop squad' surfacing?

Heng claims unaware of move to topple Chew Mei Fun

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 23 – Wanita MCA secretary-general Senator Heng Seai Kie said she was unaware of a move to bring down its chief Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun.

“I have not heard about this. We will be having a meeting tomorrow on the fresh elections for the party. We will know about it (move against Chew) tomorrow,” she told reporters at the parliament lobby today.

Heng was commenting on a report in a local Chinese daily today of an alleged conspiracy among some Wanita MCA central committee members to bring down Chew, who is in the camp opposed to party president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat.

Asked whether there was a need for MCA to also hold fresh elections for posts in the Wanita and Youth wings along with the central working committee, she said: “Whatever the problem, we should try to minimise and not enlarge it.”

Heng, who is also Deputy Information Communication and Culture Minister, said the party had agreed to give six months for the “greater unity plan” proposed by Ong to be executed before fresh polls are held.

Meanwhile, MCA Youth head Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong said he was unaware of a meeting on Tuesday to discuss the restructuring of the party’s central working committee as mentioned by Heng.

“I am upset as I have not received any information on this. Either there was miscommunication or wrong information given,” he said.

Wee, who is also Deputy Education Minister, said he also received a text message from the MCA headquarters that there would be a meeting on Tuesday to discuss on increasing the number of delegates for the next party elections or to have direct elections.

“This has nothing to do with the proposal to cancel the extraordinary general meeting which is scheduled this Saturday,” he said.

Commenting on the need to have fresh elections this year instead of next year, Wee said: “We have not had our annual general meeting for this year and by right we must do it before Dec 31.” – Bernama
