How silly can MCA leaders be?

"MCA Glam Girls"

By Lee Kee

HOW silly can MCA political leaders be? On second thought, should anyone be surprised with the MCA’s use of women and sex to attract political attention and support?

It is no wonder that the Chinese community is shying away from MCA today. The present batch of party central leaders is a disgrace to the Chinese for supporting an immoral leader – one who womanises and cheats on his wife.

Clearly, their support for Chua Soi Lek is based solely on political patronage and the perks from the party and its assets, especially from its cash cow, The Star newspaper. It cannot be for the interest of the Chinese community, and Malaysians in general.

The MCA can now, hardly defend itself from the use of sex to attract political support, following the pictorial write up by Toh Leong posted by Malaysia Chronicle on Oct 20, 2011, and titled MCA's 'Hot Chicks' and Wee Ka Siong: The Inside Story.

First of all, there is nothing wrong with the modelling profession. In fact, it is one of the most rewarding profession, if one is successful.

However, the way the MCA, especially its Youth wing, engaged the models is utterly distasteful and degrading.

Now, here are some insider revelations by little birds in the party that show how rotten to the core its leaders are.

1. After the models were paraded, MCA Youth chief Wee Ka Siong had the cheek to say that those absent from the assembly had missed a golden opportunity to interact with the young professionals who include businesswomen and lawyers.
2. After the true identity of the models were exposed by PKR in the internet news portals, Wee initially refused the media to interview the models; he also refused to comment or confirm whether they were part-time models and promoters;
3. Wee was also quoted as saying: “Is it a sin for beautiful girls to join MCA? Even if they are prostitutes, what is wrong with joining MCA?” Such reactions are testimony to Wee’s arrogance and lack of respect for women.

Wee had initially tried to portray the models as party members but they are not. So, what are they doing at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) which is only for central delegates and observers (who must be party members). What’s wrong with using genuine MCA women members? The legality of the presence of outsiders, is therefore, questionable, what more they were given special treatment and attention in a grand entry to the AGM.

Another gossip among MCA members is Chua Soi Lek’s offer of a “New Deal” for the Chinese community and Malaysians in the next general election.

Have you noticed why there is not a single effort offered in the “New Deal” for women and children’s protection?

The joke is this: “The girls and women actually need protection from Chua Soi Lek. That’s why the New Deal is shy of this issue.”

So, to the MCA, led by the likes of Chua and Wee, it is leadership by example a.k.a sex by example. Hmmm! Sounds familiar, like big brother Umno.
