Yes, now it is the Deputy President of UMNO (the DPM) who is publicly humiliating MCA...
If an outsider is needed to resolve an internal problem, surely there could be some senior MCA member that could be roped in..
And even if the UMNO leadership was being called in, irrespective of the fact that it is PM and the DPM of Malaysia, they should have kept it quite ...at least an effort not to embarass the MCA..but no they did not...
After all is settled, UMNO's dominance over MCA will be even more...
MCA...MIC - you still have not managed to get a DPM position - or at least the No. 2 position in BN. BN No. 1, No.2 and the Secretary General are still UMNO, is it not?
Maybe, it is time for MCA to be closed down - and its members can go out and find new political parties...
Or better still, maybe time has come to end all race-based political parties, and re-open that idea Mahathir once made, i.e. forming a new party called BN, which will be multi-racial and multi-religious, for this will be in line with his 1Malaysia slogan...
Or maybe, just open UMNO to all - it need no more be United Malay National Organisation - it could still be UMNO, and be United Malaysian National Organisation...
Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin has given himself one week to resolve the problems in MCA.
He said a formula would be drawn up during that period to reach a consensus among the disputing party leaders.
He said a series of meetings had been held with several party leaders to discuss the crisis in greater detail.
"The task is not easy because it involves the interest of the party as well as that of the nation," he told reporters today.
He said he was given the mandate by Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak to tackle the problem by implementing pro-active measures as soon as possible to prevent the crisis from becoming worse.
The number two's remark comes five days ahead of the extraordinary general meeting (EGM) proposed by the faction aligned to vice-president Liow Tiong Lai.
Liow and his supporters have vowed to call off the EGM if the rival faction, headed by president Ong Tee Keat and his deputy Dr Chua Soi Lek, agree to holding fresh party elections next month.
Although conceding that a fresh elections is the best panacea for the impasse, Chua however wants the contest to be held next March while Ong remains vague on this.- Malaysiakini, 23/11/2003, Muhyiddin reveals 7-day mission to fix MCA
