When Parti Keadilan, DAP and PAS decided to contest the last GE under Pakatan Rakyat’s banner, the MCA, Gerakan and to some extent, UMNO, were warning the non-Muslims not to be taken in by this loose coalition because of the fear of PAS’s Islamic state agenda. The DAP was accused of selling out Chinese interests for political gains. Both the MCA and the Gerakan had a field day! They did all they could to instill fear among the non-Malays, hoping against hope that the Chinese were stupid and could still be led by the nose. Little did they realize that the non-Malays, especially the urban folks, were already sick and tired of their constant lies and wanton exploitation of the Rakyat.
Over the last few days we have been reading about this UMNO – PAS unity talk that has taken place on three occasions, it seems. From press reports we know that the other members of the BN were not consulted at all, but then, the other component parties have not voiced any objections to this courtship either. The MCA was very vocal about the Pakatan Rakyat but now it is as though they are not aware of the current developments, or are they busy giving their UMNO masters a bj, which explains the silence. Come to think of it, the MCA and Gerakan were never here for the Rakyat, they are here to make UMNO feel and look good!
A leader in the MCA has voiced that they have no such intention (unity talk with DAP). He said the MCA will not be talking to DAP. Boy, am I glad to hear that, and I believe that a good number of Chinese would not want the DAP to talk to them too! After all, to me, the MCA never had the interests of the Chinese, and all they have done the last 50 years was to prostitute themselves as well as the Chinese community in this country!
