Gerakan and SUPP do not have morally-tainted leaders, yet they suffered heavy defeats in the general election, said MCA president Dr Chua Soi Lek.

Chua said should voters were really in favour of untainted leaders, Gerakan and Sarawak’s United Peoples’ Party would not have left with only one parliamentary seat each today.
“If you say my sex video was the cause of Chinese rejecting MCA, then why Koh Tsu Koon, the Gerakan leader with a clean record, was only left with one seat whereas MCA had seven? he asked.
“What about SUPP’s (president) Peter Chin? His party was also left with one seat. Perhaps he has a sex video as well,” he said.
Chua was responding to his political rival Liow Tiong Lai’s statement that the morally- tainted president was the reason behind MCA’s disastrous defeat in the May polls.
“Many voters have teased us with the word ‘VCD’ when we went around campaigning,” Liow had said.
A group of pro-Chua central committee members have called for an EGM to censure Liow for failing to discharge his duty as MCA’s election preparation committee head and to discuss the need to reverse the party’s “no government post” pledge.
Chua has admitted in 2008 that he was the man in a widely-circulated video that shows him engaging in sexual acts with a young woman.
As a result of the video, Chua resigned as the health minister, Labis MP and MCA vice- president.
Chua said Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim was also implicated in several sex videos, but never had the guts to admit it like how he did.
“His party still won 31 seats, so it is up to you to make a conclusion,” he said.
