MCA central committee member Datin Paduka Dr Tan Yee Kew and also former Klang MP today has resigned from the party MCA.
She told media that she already faxed her resignation letter to the MCA headquarters Thursday morning. “This is a painful decision because I have so much sentiment attachment to MCA after my 20 years with it,” she said, adding that the announcement came after three-months of soul searching and attempts to find new meaning to her political career.
Asked whether her diminishing political career in the MCA and the party election were the reasons for her decision, she said the party election was just part of the reason as such an important decision could not come from just one incident.
As a politician with real conscience, she said, she too shared the people’s frustration over the widening gap between the rich and the poor in the country, racial discrimination in public policies, rising corruption and abuse of power.
“Despite the growing discontent among of the people, Barisan Nasional has shown neither the determination nor the commitment to address these problems,” she claimed.
Dr Tan said it was time for a change in the political system with a two-party system that would provide the necessary check and balance to safeguard democracy, moderation and peace in the country.
“We can right now see the emergence of the two-party system so the question is whether we should throw in our support so that the system can grow, I think this is a major factor,” she said.
I really feel touching and proud for her courage and action to leave Barisan to joining oppositon, she really brave and love us nation than every man who boasting hero in MCA.. Thanks and congratultions for your decision to stand with us poor citizen in Malaysia to fight and defend our rights.. I support 100% you leave MCA because nowadays MCA are not really MCA anymore, lets go join Pakatan because now only Pakatan cares for us and our country plus they also far more clean and humble than any ppl from Barisan!!
Really prove that sometimes women powers are more greater than man!!!
