Since Dr Chua Soi Lek made his ‘remarkable’ comeback to active politics by winning the MCA deputy president’s post last Saturday, the big poser in the minds of many is whether a morally tainted politician could be accepted back into public life. In a random survey by Malaysiakini, many felt that Chua’s comeback was too soon while others were sympathetic, saying that he should be given a second chance.
Surprisingly, among the sympathetic (and forgiving!) were two woman parliamentarians from the DAP - Batu Gajah MP Fong Po Kuan and Serdang parliamentarian Teo Nie Ching. Both opined that Soi Lek's morality issue was secondary if he could prove that he was a changed man and the people were confident and genuinely felt that he was a good and capable person.
For the two woman MPs, I wonder if they would be as sympathetic (and forgiving!) if their husband or partner did a 'Chua Soi Lek' on them. If yes, lucky men! Fong and Teo are so generous!!
