MCA loyal dog to Umno, cannot fight for a fair policy for Chinese community!

The MCA annual general meeting (AGM) today kicked off telling its key BN ally Umno that while they were still loyal, the Chinese party does not appreciate being led by the nose nor will it only silently follow, echoing the strong stance taken by its Youth AGM yesterday.

At the party's 57th AGM in Kuala Lumpur today.President Chua Soi Lek said, "Please do not question our loyalty to BN and our commitment to power sharing... However we are not a blind follower."

As such, Chua said that his party may not be on the same page with Umno nor BN all the time and there will be occasions when MCA will take a different stand from Umno. The former health minister said MCA needed to be sensitive to the needs and aspirations of the rakyat, so that we continue to be their voice in the government.

Recently, in a session at the National Unity Forum 2010 here, Tun Hanif Omar said the government had not put enough emphasis on national unity in the past years. “There are not a lot of non-Bumiputeras in the civil service, in government-linked companies and there is also a lack of Malays in Chinese businesses,” Hanif said.

So, can MCA answer why? Why after so many years, there are not a lot of non-Bumiputeras (that is, Chinese, Indian, 'dan lain-lain') in the civil service, in government-linked companies and there is also a lack of Malays in Chinese businesses??? Why are certain sectors dominated by a certain race?
