SUNGAI LONG: MCA’s founding president, the late Tun Tan Cheng Lock, has left behind an unparalelled legacy for Malaysia’s multicultural political framework through his vision of unity, citizenship and equality.

“His stand against colonial divide-and-rule, his calls for inclusion, and his push for self-governance, remind us that national progress is possible when we work together for the common good,” said Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong, who is the 10th MCA president.
