I’d be embarrassed, Dr Chua says on MCA skipping polls

PETALING JAYA: Former MCA president Dr Chua Soi Lek has reportedly described his party’s decision to opt out of the Aug 12 state elections as “extremely tragic”.

“If I were still the MCA president, I would be embarrassed,” Chua was quoted as saying by Sin Chew.

“The current state of MCA is pitiful and pathetic. Its existence is entirely nominal. A lot of members are just trying to please the party president. If MCA’s top leaders continue to maintain this attitude, the party will be doomed.”
