MCA Commits Political Suicide
By Matthias Chang
On 7th October 2009, we cautioned the central delegates of the MCA not to listen to Chua Soi Lek, the political opportunist and former Minister of Health and Deputy President, when voting at the party’s EGM.
The run up to the party’s EGM revealed that powerful forces within UMNO and former leaders of MCA were backing Chua Soi Lek’s coup against the President.
The President was too independent-minded for their liking and his determination to expose the corruption committed by former leaders of MCA in collusion with other political forces in the RM12 billion Port Klang scandal, sent cold shivers down their spine. It was decided that the President must be liquidated at all costs!
Chua Soi Lek was the chosen instrument in the overall scheme of things. He was ambitious, has a big ego and could be easily manipulated to do the bidding of the political high priests.
The plan was to “kill two birds with one stone” – pass a vote of no confidence against the President and the vote rejecting the reinstatement of Chua Soi Lek as the Deputy President.
For being a willing instrument in the coup against the President, Chua Soi Lek was spared the utter humiliation of being expelled from the party and was reinstated as an ordinary member. But he thought that the reward was the Presidency of the party. How stupid can he be?
Surely, as a politician and knowing the paramount objective of the shadow powers was to put a stop to the Port Klang corruption exposé, he ought to know that once his usefulness was no longer required, he would be dumped! But Chua Soi Lek is a political bulldozer and like all machines, he forgot that the real driver is someone else!
The 1155 central delegates, who voted in support of the no confidence motion against the President, have revealed themselves as mere robots and the drags of the party. By their action in supporting the call of the Shadow Powers, they have actually committed mass suicide.
How stupid and irresponsible.
