00:00The leader of UMNO, Puat Zarkashi, insisted that it was impossible for the party to remove MCA from the national list without the consent of all components.
00:10In connection with that, he said that MCA does not need to be afraid of their own shadow,
00:14reviewing media reports that there is a suggestion from outsiders to remove the relevant party from the listed components.
00:21Puat, who is also the head of the party's highest-ranking working council, said that UMNO actually prefers the addition of the component members.
00:28However, it is prohibited because the rules stipulate that there must be consent from all components.
00:34He said that if there is an outsider, especially the DAP, who wants UMNO to remove MCA or MIC,
00:40it will not happen because it is impossible for the party led by Zahid Hamidi to be revived.
00:46Yesterday, the media reported that President MCA, Wee Kha Siong, claimed that the suggestion to remove MCA from the list
00:52came from an outsider who previously accused the party of betraying the Chinese people because it was allied with UMNO.
