MCA delegates did the perfect job

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 10 (Bernama) -- Embattled MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat lost in a vote of no-confidence against him while suspended Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek was reinstated as a party member but not as the deputy president at an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) of the party here on Saturday.
A total of 1,155 delegates voted for the no-confidence motion, which was the first resolution, while 1,141 voted against it. Eight ballot papers were spoilt.
A total of 1,204 of the delegates agreed that the presidential council's decision on Aug 26 in accepting the recommendation of the disciplinary board and the subsequent decision of the central committee to expel or suspend Dr Chua be annulled, as per the second resolution, meaning that he would be reinstated as a party member.
A total of 1,184 of the 2,304 delegates also decided against the third resolution - that suspended Dr Chua be reinstated as the deputy president.
The results were announced by Speaker Datuk Yip Phooi Hong at 4.10pm after two recounts of the votes for the first resolution.

tunku : it is the best decision by the Mca delegates.it shows that they are matured enough to decide the best for their party.both ong tee kiat and chua soi lek should let go their position in Mca for the sake of their party.if either one of them stay in power, the party will split.we hope now both ong's and chua's supporters will unite again and will make Mca a strong party like it used to be.

Keputusan yang dibuat oleh perwakilan MCA menunjukkan kematangan dan kebijaksaaan mereka dalam menentukan kepimpinan parti.

Sekarang mereka boleh memilih pemimpin yang boleh diterima oleh kedua belah pihak. MCA akan jadi kuat semula.
