00:00Former MCA Vice President Tilian Kerr has hit out at Barca National Chairman Ahmad Zayed
00:05Hamidi, accusing him of being ungrateful after Zayed said some MCA leaders wanted to leave
00:10the coalition because they did not get their toys. He reminded Zayed that MCA and MIC stayed
00:16loyal to BN even after the coalition's crushing loss in the 2018 general election,
00:21which ended its 61-year rule. He added that both parties stayed with BN even when its image
00:26suffered further from corruption charges against UMNO leaders, including Zayed himself and his
00:31conditional discharge. Zayed claimed yesterday that several MCA and MIC leaders were pushing for
00:37their parties to quit BN as they were unhappy about not receiving toys. MCA President Wee Ka-siung,
00:44however, denied that the party had demanded toys, saying it sought only respect and fair treatment.
00:49He said Zayed's remarks went against BN's core values of respect and teamwork,
00:54adding that under Zayed's leadership, the coalition has become more about self-preservation
00:58than serving the country. Danish Rajar Reza, FMT.
