Isn’t the Transport Minister from MCA?

Kong is keeping mum because his useless ministerial position is more important than the Chinese community. If he objects, he will be removed by Umno, just like what happened to former MCA president Ong Tee Keat in the multi-billion-ringgit Port Klang Free Zone (PKF) financial scandal.

Who is MCA trying to kid in the controversial acquisition of Petaling “Chinatown” Street land for the construction of the Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit (KVMRT)?



The sex-scandal-tainted president Dr Chua Soi Lek had on Wednesday (Aug 24, 2011) so proudly announced and promised that the 31 landowners on Kuala Lumpur’s Jalan Sultan would be able to hold on to their property — after the government agreed to reinforce their buildings — and return upon completion of the tunnelling beneath their shops.



In less than 24 hours, Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) chairman Syed Hamid Albar said the compulsory acquisition of the Jalan Sultan lots — where the KVMRT would run underground — was necessary because under land law, landowners also owned the land that lies below ground.



“We have to do compulsory acquisition of the land. It means that subsequently, they have to alienate the land above,” Syed Hamid told reporters after a memorandum of understanding signing with Puspakom Sdn Bhd on Thursday.



Syed Hamid added that although they were currently working on a solution to allow the traders to return to Chinatown “there is no guarantee that it would eventually be returned to the owners”.



This again, as in the past, shows what MCA leaders say are meaningless and just a “damage control exercise” whenever controversial issues afflicting the Chinese community arise.



In particular, can anyone really trust Dr Chua the wife cheater to represent us?



In dealing with such issues since Merdeka, the MCA continues to dish out crap, never sticking its neck out for the Chinese community.



The biggest joke in this Chinatown issue is this: “Why is the Transport Minister Kong Cho Ha keeping mum?” Isn’t he from MCA? Is the SPAD chairman more powerful than Kong?



Of course the Umno SPAD chairman is more powerful.



Kong is keeping mum because his useless ministerial position (Kong is making it useless with his inaction) is more important than the Chinese community.



If he objects, he will be removed by Umno, just like what happened to former MCA president Ong Tee Keat who foolishly knocked his head on the brickwall in the multi-billion-ringgit Port Klang Free Zone (PKF) financial scandal.



Kong, after taking office, displayed his 101% loyalty to the powers that be by immediately sweeping the PKFZ probe under the carpet, thus comnsolidating his ministerial position.



Under such circumstances, do you really expect the dumbbell Kong or the MCA to defend the interests of the Chinese community or care a damn for a Chinese heritage zone?



It is really appalling to note that, of late, the non-Umno ministers have been reduced to just puppets, toothless leaders who are completely subservient to Umno and the powers that be.



Non-Umno ministers are just puppets and powerless to Umno-formed and Umno-linked commissions, committees, boards, etc.



So Malaysians, isn’t it crystal clear that it does not really make any difference whether there are MCA, Gerakan or MIC ministers after the next general election?



As for the Malays, only the cronies of Umno Malays will continue to prosper while the majority of Malays continue to struggle in poverty.
