MCA’s Wee expecting GE16 in 4 to 5 months
The MCA president says his party has been making early preparations for GE16 instead of leaving things to the last minute.
MCA president Wee Ka Siong anticipates the upcoming general election (GE16) will occur within four to five months, according to the party's president. Wee stated that MCA has begun preparing for the nationwide polls early, rather than waiting until the final days of the current term. The Malaysian Chinese Association leader noted that the federal government typically does not serve its full five-year term, and called for elections to be called several months before the expiration of the term.
Speaking about a proposal from Umno to allow MCA to contest the Kluang seat in GE16, Wee said the matter could be discussed at the grassroots level, but the final decision would rest with the central Barisan Nasional leadership. He emphasized that if the Barisan Nasional party nominates a candidate, that individual would be the one representing the party in the election.
