UPDATED
By Syed Jaymal Zahiid
KUALA LUMPUR, March 4 — Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek (left) resigned as deputy president of MCA today, while seven of his supporters in the central committee will also quit, in a move that will pave the way for fresh party polls.
The total of 21 resignations, or two-thirds of the central committee, will now be enough under the MCA Constitution to trigger new elections which must be held within a month.
Dr Chua said he has been receiving resignation letters from as early as January and up to yesterday he had seven in total.
“So I resign as deputy president of MCA today and if you consider the 13 CC members from Liow’s faction, 21 has resigned,” he told a press conference at the party headquarters here.
The other seven that resigned are vice-president Datuk Seri Kong Cho Ha, Datuk Seri Tan Chai Ho, Datuk Gan Tian Loo, Datuk Chong Itt Chew, Datuk Tee Siew Kiong, Datuk Paul Kong and Loh Seng Kok.
Dr Chua’s resignation marks the end of the “Greater Unity Plan” where he made peace with party president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat.
“We hope that the party leadership will call for elections as soon as possible so that the crisis which has plagued the party can be solved immediately,” he said.
“I have fulfilled my promise from the last extraordinary general meeting. I have said it before, no individual interest can precede the party’s interests,” he said.
I posted this comment in response to this article in NST : Possible "defection" from eight MCA MPs considering BN's direct membership
I find this strange and decided to add this comment . I waited for one full day to see what the other media has to say about this ! I find it very very strange that no one carried this article except The New Straits Times which is an UMNO controlled MSM . Yes only the NST carried this news , even the other opposition link websites and portal didn't even carry this news which leads me to believe the post was emailed to NST and there was no official press release .
So its UMNO asking them to leave ? or behind this group of ball shriekers ? Your guess as good as mine .My question has been answered , UMNO wants fresh elections in MCA as 8 or 9 MPs is pressuring UMNO to pressure MCA for the fresh election . So be it ! Chua Soi Lek and group has been pressured to resign by UMNO to pave the way for fresh elections . I think we shall be seeing the evolution of new political play here in Malaysia . The time was right since the pressure by the opposition on BN has faded with the resignations of PKR MPs . Maybe its high time to clean up MCA once and for all .
Lets wait and see the realignment before I can comment .
CSL talk cock, he betray OTK, plain and simple. Too many sick people in MCA.
ReplyDeleteHumpty Dumpty MCA. It has more pieces than my broken vase. Japanese glue cannot gum it back.
ReplyDeleteRemember CSL betrayed his wife. Cannot be trusted.
ReplyDeleteI hope the CD wake up......
Anonymous 12......i hope this time around, the delegants will be wise and vote for people who will ask "why?" instead of "how high?' when Umno says JUMP!!!!
ReplyDeleteOnly now we can identify those honest and trustworthy politicians. It is sad day for MCA. How can we trust politicians who are controlled by the 3rd force, invisible hand of AMNO, and those implicated in financial and sex scandals. How can we vote them into power.
ReplyDeleteThere is one way OTK can strike back --- get MCA OUT of BN immediately !
ReplyDeleteIf arm no wants to play, so can MCA.
It all boils down to this ---------> PKFZ !
ReplyDeleteIt is something arm no does NOT want the world to know about.
Arm no will do anything to NOT let anyone know the involvement of arm no in the PKFZ scandal, so they have to get rid of OTK.
Poor OTK, becoming the sacrificial lamb, again !
I appeal to OTK to take his case to the ground, the grass root members and not depending on this selfish fucking cheating old man for support who himself want to be the Number 1. Clearly he is trying to sabotage OTK who recently have built up momentum.
ReplyDeleteThe timing of the announcement tell a lot, why not after the AGM, because a rousing cheers for OTK from the CD to the coming AGM will be seen as a strong support for OTK which CSL want to put the lip on.........
I want OTK to remember the people is with you, do not give up..........
OTK..go ahead with the CC meeting tomorrow without the Renegades. Accept their resignations with regret and make sure you have your supporters in place this time.
ReplyDeleteconcern
I think OTK should start kicking their balls. No use being nice guy. People do not respect you. It is better to be feared than be respected. Bring out the dirty tricks book.
ReplyDeleteGUP is break down. The new MCA leaders will face UMNO by whom ? OTK/CSL/LTL or NYY/CCH/WKS ? The fate of chinese is further pressed down by the new leadership who like to put self-interest in the first place rather than the Party. The chinese will like to open up their eyes to see who can lead MCA better, a leader wish to fight Corruption is not welcomed by the party .
ReplyDeleteLTL FOR PRESIDENT AS PREDICTED
ReplyDeleteHIP HIP HOORAY 3X
My prediction:
ReplyDeleteSince MCA doesn't represent the Chinese anymore, why don't you guys invite Toh You Tin as your president?
Integrity is living a life of total honesty and truthfullness. it is Saying Exactly what you DO and Doing Exactly what you SAY. WE DONT SEE THAT IN LTL.
ReplyDeleteLet them fight and bleed. After all, the majority Chinese community will NOT be voting for them.
ReplyDeleteWho will you vote? A)BN B)PKR
A: if OTK still the President of MCA
ReplyDeleteB: if any other MCA leaders
hahaha part time - lets see if JT4OTK will still have free time to write about PKR or DAP.
ReplyDeleteNow with all tyhe ants crawling over MCA and huge betrayal from CSL - let's see what c0ck and bull JT4otk will have to write.
At least he won't be so c0ck sure now.
serve him right.
Seow Chay

ReplyDeleteSince those 21 central committee so keen of quitting, they should not be voted in again if anyone of them stand for election. Wipe them out completely.......don't let them ridicule MCA.
ReplyDeleteThe candidates of next president of MCA not many, if seen from the present CC, only one or two is fit to lead the 60 year old shop. Age at least 50 over with mature mindset. Political experience to deal with Chinese right within the BN family. One thing is important - Never be a FGZ or betray your big brother,responsible,brave enough to leave the cabinet,can build up the strength of the party and of course welcome by the chinese community as well.
ReplyDeletehahaha part time - lets see if JT4OTK will still have free time to write about PKR or DAP.
ReplyDeletehahaha J4otk will still have time to write about Party Kelengkong Rakyat and the Dogs And Pigs , wanna bet ?
And btw I don't write cock and bull only people like you suffering from DAPtitis thinks so ... muahaha
MCA is full of backstabbers. The 3 backstabbing brutus and the biggest backstabbers CSL. How can the voters trust politicians from MCA. f they can stab each other, wont they back stab the voters. No thank you. I vote PAS.
ReplyDeleteDear justice4otk,
ReplyDeleteAnalyzing the reasons for CSL's resignation, I am inclined to believe that his hands are tied and forced by the big Brothers to make this decisions.
BN got more to lose if they allow OTK to have his way ie remove LTL and his factions. Imagine the number of supporters moving out of BN if the 13 Renegates joined the oppositions with their supporters. BN will certainly suffer heavy casualities.
BN will gain from the exit of OTK because his supporters will only be a drop of sand in the ocean, basing on the own scenario that OTK joins the oppositions with his supporters. Besides, UMNO in BN will make the replaced leaders lick their balls and cunt because they think it is UMNO that make gave them the opportunity to be millionaires like WEE KA SIONG. Finally, those in UMNO who is involved with the PKFZ will be free to spend their Multi Million $ with OTK out of the way.
I must admit Politics is very dirty but we really have to live with it, Right? Dont go crazy like the Malaysiakini guy. Make your money while you can, fuck off from this country and enjoy your family life overseas.

Concern,
ReplyDeleteyou have mad OTK look like GOD.
CSL is a big snake, this is the price to pay for sleeping with snake.
BTW, have you not heard of RPK's story about the scorpean which told the person he needs help from that it will not sting him???
anon 3:08
ReplyDeleteRPK's story about the scorpion ? can you believe this rascal who is now a fugitive ? slandering others without proof ?
And a useless father whose son became involved in vice and criminal activities ?
If you can hold high regards for an idiot like him , who cannot even take care of his son wants to teach others who to vote for ?
Don't be a dumbass !
CSL is a big snake I agree however I still will only give my judgement about him in due course when I see the nominations in a few days time .
I will still rate OTK a better guy than that fugitive of a Raja Bullshit
CSL does the right thing at the right time. He knows politics better than OTK. OTK has promised to retire gradually, but he stay on to fight back. Therefore, CSL has no choice but to resign enbloc so that the MCA CDs ca have the final say on who should lead.
ReplyDeleteOTK MADE A BIG MISTAKE, BY SACKING CSL ON 26/8/2009, YOU STILL REMEMBER THAT FATEFUL DAY? WHAT HAS OTK DONE TO CSL. HE COLDBLOODEDLY MUDERED A POPULARLY ELECTED PRESIDENT. EVERYBODY KNOWS IT WAS A POLITICAL MURDER MASTERMINDED BY OTK, TO STAY ON FOR MORE THAN ONE TERM. OTK FAILED MISERABLY AS A PRESIEDNT OF MCA. HE KNOWS HOW TO TALK AND TALK BUT ENDED UP DOING NOTHING.
