Silencing the Lions!

It was truly a fateful day for the MCA in Malaysia. The second largest party of the Barisan Nasional went for a referendum of sorts to determine who should indeed lead the much battered MCA.

Fateful Double 10th it was. Using the historical memorable date of the independence of mainland China to stage this EGM, more than 2,304 delegates silenced the lions and sent them packing. They were tired of the bickering. They could smell the "Et tu Brutus" refrain,orchestrated by "known and seen' hands of the President and his men, to killed off the opposition,the much maligned Deputy who continues to be tainted by a sex scandal.

The party is now in shambles like a rooster without a head. This Thursday, October 15 will see a procedural MCA Central Committee meeting that will decide what to do with the fell-out of the EGM. Morally, The President, defeated in a unprecedented 'No Confidence' vote should just resign honourably and ride away into the political void. As for the erstwhile ex-Deputy, he has been granted his wish to be an ordinary member until his dying day.


Anyone can guess the future of MCA.

With third rate Leos coming in to fill the vacuum at the top, the once proud MCA will now slowly be put into political wilderness and lose its glory forever.

Expect non-partisan members to desert in droves to the DAP and the PKR!
