Uphold Asean’s values of non-interference: MCA to individuals who signed APHR statement

MCA urges the 90 Members of Parliaments (MPs) and ex-MPs from the Asean Parliamentarians for Human Rights (APHR) who signed a statement calling on His Majesty Seri Paduka Baginda Yang di-Pertuan Agong to allow Parliament to reconvene, to be more concerned about issues affecting the citizens of their respective countries, especially with the Covid-19 pandemic raging, instead of interfering with the domestic affairs of other countries. MCA has full confidence that Malaysia is wise enough to deal with matters involving our own country. There is no need for outsiders to have to worry or attempt to find cheap political publicity.

Upon researching the list of signatories, we discovered that 65 of them are MPs, while another 25 do not serve as lawmakers currently, and a majority of whom hail from the opposition. Surprisingly, two-thirds of the 90 legislators who are supposedly from 7 countries, are actually members of only 2 political parties. In fact, the court had ordered the dissolution of one of the political parties a few years ago.
