MCA president Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai keeps an ear to the ground


The minister with his constituents in Bentong for the Program Santai Anak Muda Parlimen Bentong at Taman Pendidikan Komuniti Taman Sungai Marong, Bentong.

Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai pokes his head through the door of his office which is located on the grounds of Parliament Building and smiles broadly at an assortment of people in the room. He looks slightly harried and who can blame him? Up since 6.30 am, he must have had a gruelling day thus far – parliamentary meetings, Q&A sessions and the odd interview or two. But he’s in good form and looks raring to go.

A firm handshake accompanied by a direct gaze and it’s down to business. He’s not one for small talk and there’s definitely no dilly-dallying. The current President of the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA), MP for Bentong as well as the Minister of Transport has plenty on his plate and I get the feeling he’s determined to polish off every single morsel.
