Disciplinary action for two MCA members

KUALA LUMPUR: Two MCA members who stood as independent candidates to contest in the elections will face disciplinary action to be expelled, says MCA deputy president Datuk Seri Chan Kong Choy, who heads the disciplinary committee.

"They will be sacked eventually,'' said Chan, in reference to Ho Yip Kap and Koh Boon Heng who are contesting state seats as independant candidates. Ho is contesting the Tanah Rata state seat and Koh is contesting the Damak state seat.

Both are involved in three-cornered fights.

For the Tanah Rata state seat, Chai Kok Lim of MCA, contesting as a Barisan Nasional candidate, faces Go Mong Nging of the DAP and Ho.

For the Damak state seat, Lau Lee of Barisan (from MCA) is facing Mohd Nor Jaafar from PKR and Koh.

Chan also said those who acted as proposer and seconder for non-MCA candidates in seats where MCA candidates were contesting would also face disciplinary action.
