MCA president Chua Soi Lek is still haunted by his sex scandal and not all have forgiven him.

NONE Eight minutes into his speech in Malacca at the Machap Baru Chinese primary school hall last Sunday, a local MCA Youth leader stormed on stage and pulled out a placard displaying the message: "President, if you really love MCA, could you please resign?"

Chua ( left ) however ignored him and continued with his speech.

When the unexpected 'guest' was escorted down from the stage, Chua said, "Don't let one person's intrusion affect the whole dinner."

The unexpected ‘guest' was Malacca MCA Alor Gajah Youth division secretary Chai Ming Swee.

He later alleged that he was harshly pushed out of the hall and later assaulted by three people who hit him in the head and upper body resulting in a torn shirt and a damaged spectacles.

NONE Chai decried that there were other people who just stood and watched as he was being attacked.

Finally, a Indian guard intervened and told him to leave immediately.

"After I went into my car, five people began to chase me, and one of them threw a helmet which struck and dented the bonnet of my car.

"I left immediately and went straight to lodge a police report at the Alor Gajah police station.

"Later, I went to a hospital for a check-up."

When asked on the incident, Soi Lek today said as he could not read Chinese, he thought Chai was welcoming him. 

He was speaking at a press conference after the MCA presidential council meeting at the MCA headquarters.

“I thought he was trying to welcome me. So I continued on with my speech.”

This comment was received with laughter from the floor.

Soi Lek said as Chai was swiftly removed from the stage and hall, he continued with his speech and he doesn’t know what happened to him after that.

“Apparently he was assaulted, whether it’s true or not I have no idea because I was in the hall.”

He said that he respected Chai’s right to protest and “even condemn me”.

“But he also must know how to respect me as I am the newly elected  President of MCA and so he must respect the process of democracy.”

Report received

Malacca CID chief ACP Mohamad Adnan Abdullah confirmed receiving the report, and said that Chai was allegedly attacked by three individuals.

He said that the police are investigating the case under the Criminal Code article 323 for "inflicting hurt". No arrest has been made as yet.

Chai also told the media that the reason for his act was because earlier on, he had invited the son of a local MCA leader to join the party.

"The young men replied, ‘how could Chinese Malaysians put their fate on a man who has stained MCA and picked him to be the leader? I'd rather join the black (secret) society rather than MCA.'"

Chai said he was deeply "saddened and disturbed" by this reply and hence decided to take action in urging Chua to step down and save the party.

He also stressed he acted alone and that even his family did not know about his plan.

The Malacca MCA Alor Gajah Youth has suspended Chai from his post pending disciplinary action hours after the incident.
