Give MCA the boot


The MCA and their Umno masters must be given the boot before they inflict further and irreparable damage to the country’s socio-economic growth, says former MCA leader.
COMMENT
By Chua Jui Meng
The MCA sold out the Chinese and other non-bumiputera communities by supporting the 9th Malaysia Plan (9MP) which contained damning wealth ownership controls.
When the then prime minister, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, extended the New Economic Policy (NEP) till 2020, the MCA supported 9MP’s Wealth Ownership clause which requires non-bumiputera Small-Medium Industries (SMIs) and Small-Medium Entrepreneurs (SMEs) to surrender at least 30% share equity to bumiputeras.
The MCA and their Umno masters must be given the boot before they inflict further and irreparable damage to the country’s socio-economic growth.
The MCA big four who sold out the Chinese were Ong Ka Ting, Chan Kong Choy, Fong Chan Onn and Dr Chua Soi Lek, and other Cabinet members.
The 9MP was formulated in 2005 and until today, none of the Chinese vernacular newspapers dare to report what I have been raising and saying about the 9MP.
It was also because of my strong objection to the extension of the NEP that Umno had interfered and influenced MCA central leaders to clip my wings and eventually forcing me to find another political platform to serve Malaysians and Malaysia.
That platform is PKR and Pakatan Rakyat.
I had made it clear that I objected to the extension of the NEP because, after more than two decades, it had only benefitted Umno chieftains and their cronies.
The majority of the rural and urban Malays remain poor, in the low and middle income groups.
The NEP had also achieved 45% corporate equity for the Malays, more than the 30% target.
Unfortunately, the bulk of the wealth had been hijacked by Umnoputras and their cronies.
After failing my second bid for the MCA presidency, I was offered and I could have taken up a cushy high paying, high flying corporate appointment but I decided to fight for justice and discrimination.
Bury BN
The future of our children, grand children and generations to come is more important than the corporate money and perks.
The March 2008 political tsunami was not strong enough to bury Barisan Nasional.
Pakatan only managed to win a parliamentary seat each in Sabah, Sarawak and Johor – all considered BN strongholds or fixed deposit states.
In the coming general election, it is crucial for Malaysians who wish to see justice, democracy and good governance to give their mandate to Pakatan to rule.
Malaysians in these three states who decide on a total of 82 parliamentary seats hold the key to our future. We need a clean, honest and sincere government to forward Malaysia.
Chua Jui Meng is PKR vice-president and Johor state chief. He is also a former MCA vice-president and an ex-Cabinet member.
