A Ka Ting comeback will do MCA no good — The Malaysian Insider

The heavy defeat of MCA in 8-Mar-2008 general election was an evidence of rejection by the Chinese community on Ong Kah Ting leadership.

If he were good, of high integrity, and furthermore competent, he shouldn't have had step down after the 308 election; and should have had continue the party transformation thereafter. It's therefore inappropriate for him to return as he'd already been given the opportunity, and that opportunity should be given to other leaders who are waiting at the wings with newer ideas, new ways, and enthusiasm.

After all, the political scenario, and landscape, is different from the days he was at helm.

The battle in MCA now is in electing the candidate/team who can unite all the factions, progressively competent, dedicated, and most importantly, upholding the integrity and safeguarding dignity of the party, without fear or favour, especially in the aspect of working relationship with UMNO, the backbone of BN.
