MCA Johor is plucking figures from the sky
Media statement by DAP Johor Chairman and MP for Kluang Liew Chin Tong on 1st March 2018
I read with great interest a statement by Umno Kempas State Assemblyman Tengku Putra Haron Aminurrashid Tengku Hamid Jumat who claimed that MCA Johor is plucking figures from the sky to claim that there is a return of Chinese support to BN.

He said “MCA might do better by getting off their backsides and start contributing to the preparations of the BN machinery.”
With MCA President Liow Tiong Lai claiming that the Chinese votes have returned to MCA while Tengku Putra Haron claiming otherwise, it is high time for MCA Deputy President and Johor Chairman Wee Ka Siong to comment and substantiate MCA’s assertions.
