Ong loses confidence vote, MCA in chaos
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 10 — After a dramatic recount, MCA delegates passed a no confidence vote against party president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat by a wafer-thin 14 vote majority, and also overturned the suspension of Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek.
But it appears the party has been thrown into chaos because delegates also defeated a motion to specifically reinstate Dr Chua as deputy president.
Party secretary-general Wong Foon Meng told reporters that this meant Dr Chua would be reinstated as an ordinary member but not as deputy president.
Dr Chua said in a short statement on his blog that he accepted the decision of party delegates.
Ong was evasive when asked if he would resign after losing the confidence vote.
"You cannot simply don't follow what I say," he answered in cryptic fashion to a question of whether he was resigning.- + selanjutnya
