Eight MCA Divisions In NS Openly Support Ka Ting

SEREMBAN, March 23 (Bernama) -- Former MCA president Tan Sri Ong Ka Ting, who is contesting the party presidency in the MCA polls on Sunday, said today he felt motivated as eight party divisions in Negeri Sembilan had openly declared support for him.

He said he was also encouraged that Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, who is contesting the deputy presidency, also supported his manifesto and wanted to stand together with him in the party elections.

"Today, in Negeri Sembilan, openly all eight divisions declared that they support my mission, support what I plan to do if I were given the opportunity. I was actually explaining and emphasising the manifesto," he told reporters after his luncheon meeting with the MCA members, here.

Ong said he explained his manifesto and his direction as well as how he would stabilise the party and bring back unity, dignity and integrity.

Liow, who also attended the meeting, told reporters his support for Ong was not a marriage of convenience.

"It's not a team merger. We have the convergence of philosophy. He announced his manifesto and we feel that he is in line with my ideas. So, I think we can work together," he said.
