00:00A senior MCA leader claims that Ahmad Zahid Hamidi is not fit to continue leading Barisan

00:06National after the UMNO president backtracked on his remarks about the existence of a Team B within

00:12DAP. MCA Vice President Tanteq Cheng said Zahid's actions were an insult to BN's long-established

00:20political credibility, adding that the coalition chairman should think before speaking.

00:24In a statement, he said Zahid's retraction of a claim that there is a Team B in DAP was unnecessary

00:33and showed that he is not qualified to continue leading BN. The Penang MCA chairman added that

00:39Zahid's words and actions represented the entire coalition, which meant he could not act based on

00:46personal emotions or individual political maneuverings. At the UMNO General Assembly on

00:52Saturday, Zahid claimed that DAP leaders who attacked former Prime Minister Najib Razak

00:57and UMNO Youth Chief Dr. Ahmad Saleh were part of DAP's Team B, implying rifts within the party.

01:05DAP Secretary General Lok Siu Phuk denied the existence of factions in the party, prompting

01:10Zahid to say he was willing to withdraw his remarks and had never intended to portray the existence of

01:17several camps within DAP. Pan Yuzhou, FMT.
