Datuk Seri Chua Soi Lek Dilucutkan Keahlian MCA Serta Merta | 马华开除蔡细历的党籍,即日生效
Chua sacked from MCA
KUALA LUMPUR: The MCA has sacked its deputy president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek with immediate effect.
This followed the party’s presidential council decision last night to accept its disciplinary board’s recommendation that Dr Chua be sacked from the party.
MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat said the council, which held the meeting for more than five hours, had made the decision with a heavy heart.
The party had given due consideration to the damage inflicted upon it by Dr Chua’s DVD sex scandal.
“This decision has been made in the best interest of the party,” Ong said, adding that the members of the council stood as one. “We shall collectively be responsible for this decision.”
“Out of respect to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak as chairman of the Barisan Nasional, the president will explain the decision of the council to him,” he said.
Under the party constitution, Ong said Dr Chua was allowed to appeal to the party’s central committee within 14 days from the date he received notice of the council’s decision.
Ong did not take any question from the media.
Of the 22 member comprising the presidential council, vice-presidents Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen and Tan Kok Hong as well as treasurer-general Tan Sri Tee Hock Seng were absent.
Dr Chua, who attended the council meeting, left before it ended.
He told a press conference that he had received a copy of the disciplinary board’s recommendation.
“As a loyal party man, I have to abide by the decision of the disciplinary board and the presidential council,” he said.
Asked if he would appeal against the decision, Dr Chua said he had not thought about it.
Dr Chua said for those who loved MCA, the work had just begun.
“Today is not about Chua Soi Lek. Neither is it about Ong Tee Keat,” he said.
He also questioned the MCA’s direction and purpose.
Before Dr Chua entered the meeting room at the MCA headquarters here at 7.15pm, he said he had expected the worst.
The disciplinary board investigations came about following a complaint by Simpang Renggam MCA division chief Eng Cheng Guan, who found a copy of Chua’s DVD in his post box.
Eng later withdrew the complaint but the board went ahead with the inquiry because the presidential council had adopted the complaint.
The DVD first made an appearance in late 2007 which resulted in Dr Chua resigning as MCA vice-president and Labis MP on Jan 1 last year.
He was elected deputy president at the party AGM last October.
The disciplinary board members were Ng Cheng Kiat, Datuk Jimmy Low Boon Hong, Datuk Ng Soon Por, Lai Kuan Fook and Ng Chih Siang. [thestar]

And Chua Soi Lek Say...
Press Statement by Datuk Seri Dr. Chua Soi Lek
Today, MCA Disciplinary Council recommended that I to be expelled from the MCA. The decision comes as no surprise because there has been a sustained attempt by the MCA President to subvert the wishes of the rank and file and end my political career.
But as a loyal party man, I have to abide by the decision of the Disciplinary Board and the Presidential Council. I am confident that MCA comrades will understand fully the events leading to the suspension and why the MCA leadership needs to keep me on the sidelines.
It is an open secret that those who are not on the same page with the MCA President are regarded as his enemies or a threat. These people are labelled as:
* Anti-MCA and out to destroy MCA;
* Gangsters;
* Cooperating with businessmen and taking money from them to topple him
The MCA President has outlined 3 main agenda for the party: Economic, Politics and Inter-racial Harmony. But in reality, it appears that his most important political agenda is to remove Chua Soi Lek.
Now that I have been suspended, I hope he can sleep well.
But not all of us have that luxury. For those of us who love the MCA, our work has just begun.
Today, it is not about Chua Soi Lek, neither it is about Ong Tee Keat. It is about MCA as the second largest component party of BN still drifting without direction and purpose.
It has been more than 16 months since the March 8 general election and 10 months since the last party election. But there has been little evidence of change.
There is no closing of ranks, no unity, morale is low and suspicion is the order of the day.
The Permatang Pasir by-election result is evidence of how far the party has slipped.
Comrades who love the party will come to realize that its time to stand up and unite to save the party. Otherwise, we will soon fade into oblivion.
I have confidence that MCA members will not let one man self-destroy the party. It will be a sad day for MCA that if we do not rise to the challenge of saving the party. Doing nothing is not an option; saving the party is the only way to move forward so that we can contribute to strengthen BN and together help to achieve One Malaysia. [drchua9.blogspot.com]
