MCA and MIC chiefs: No consensus to seek appeal


PETALING JAYA: Barisan Nasional never came to a consensus to seek an appeal to Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah to order Parliament to convene as soon as possible, say the MCA and MIC presidents.

MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong and MIC president Tan Sri M. Vigneswaran said although the matter was brought up at the Barisan meeting on Wednesday, the argument was more to oppose a Parliament sitting during a state of emergency, in line with what the King had decreed.
