Wee slams Kit Siang's claim over Teresa Kok's CNY video clip

MCA deputy president Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong today hit out at DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang for accusing him and MCA president Datuk Liow Tiong Lai of translating Seputeh MP Teresa Kok's Chinese New Year video clip which ridiculed, among others, the country's leaders and education system. He said this showed that Lim did not watch the video clip titled "Onederful Malaysia", which also carried Bahasa Malaysia subtitles for Malaysians to watch it. "Teresa Kok's action does not reflect the Chinese culture of ushering in the lunar new year by wishing for good things," he told reporters after attending a Chinese New Year celebration at Sekolah Tinggi Chong Hwa in Jalan Joned, here, last night. The function, organised by various Chinese associations in the Muar district, was also attended by Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin. Wee said in Chinese culture, the community would always pray for prosperity and not ridicule others like what Kok had done. On the MCA extraordinary general meeting on Feb 22, Wee said it was up to the 1,934 delegates to decide whether the party would be represented in the Barisan Nasional government.
