"Another decision I think many Malaysians find hard to comprehend. A minister reporting to another minister. Really Malaysia Boleh!"

On Mas CEO made 2nd KPI minister

TP Wan : Idris Jala's promotion to a Minister position is a classic case of promoting upstairs to a "useless job". There is more to this than meets the eye. MAS has more or less now gone leaner and hungrier and is more competitive now which poses a threat to AirAsia.

Krishnan Sahay : Idris Jala as a Minister should not be made to report to another Minister who is a lousy performer to boot. This is really ridiculous! What has he done to deserve this miserable fate? After all, he didn't ask for the miserable Minister's job where he will be reduced to counting paper clips to pass his time.

If the government doesn't want him to run MAS, they should allow him to go back to his old job with Sarawak Shell. In fact, Idris Jala didn't want his second contract with MAS but the Government insisted on it and now even before he's halfway through it, they have decided to kick him out.

Jeremy Tankh : Idris Jala, de facto minister of KPI. Top bred, high performer. No doubt the best man for the job. But remember Zaid Ibrahim, the former de facto minister of Law? No better man than him as Law Minister, ever in BN. But how did his fellow UMNO ministers receive him?

Malaysians Are Not Stupid : Another decision I think many Malaysians find hard to comprehend. A minister reporting to another minister. Really Malaysia Boleh! If the PM finds Koh Tsu Koon is not up to mark, sack him. Don't waste taxpayer's hard-earned money to pay a good for nothing minister.

Group to oust Ong in tit-for-tat move

Ice Cream Man : Ong has never received the support of anyone from the Government, in fact the deputy prime minister has openly asked him not to take his fight with Tiong public, Muhyiddin had said this should be done behind closed doors - so much for transparency and BN.

Malaysian Chinese : I would not say Ong is wrong either. No, not yet. Tiong seems to have a hidden agenda. Is the MCA now becoming the puppet for very high level and powerful political manoeuvring? It sure looks like it.

Daniel Liang : MCA has indeed lost the direction for its political struggle. The sacking of Chua makes MCA look so bad. The sex scandal is just an obvious excuse to oust Ong's political rival. Ong will definitely pay a hefty price for his action, and he will forever be remembered as a villain in MCA history.

Soo Too Hing : Theng Bok should not have called EGM to sack Ong during such a difficult period for MCA. It's better for Chua to relinquish all the post voluntarily to fulfil what he had promised earlier. MCA needs a clean image after the heavy defeat of the last general election. It's quite certain that the majority of the grassroots won't support a motion to sack Ong.

Chua's sacking in defiance of Najib

Chee Hoh Siew : I think Ong Tee Keat sucks as a politician. Ong, learn to grab alliance instead of alienation. As for Chua, its better for you to join Pakatan, they will appreciate you more than Ong.

Suhaimi bin Said

: If there was any truth that the PM was not agreeable to the sacking of Chua, it simply means that even the MCA does not now listen to the PM.

Ong : Ong taking the moral ground is a joke especially after his use of private jets for a 'fee'. Najib can say what he wants but damage is done. Ong and Chua can't co-exist after this. Even if they do, it is with both holding 'knives' in their hands. and getting rid of both of them is also not the solution. Whatever the deal is, MCA will still hard to find support among the rakyat.

Jacob George

: Ong Tee Keat should have looked at the bigger picture! This was not the time for such narrow minded senseless action an action that belittles MCA's own delegates who voted Dr Chua Soi Lek in! To make matters worse Ong Tee Keat did not have the decency to seek the advice of Prime Minister Najib on this matter and its implication on Barisan Nasional as well!
