The paper is just a mouth piece of the MCA which it controls and directly manages.

The paper is fully used by the MCA to promote and further its political agenda – to brainwash the Chinese community and Malaysians in general.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb  `6 `- t$ H* U$ q: Y) O

However, in so doing, the MCA leadership, especially its morally tainted president Dr Chua Soi Lek, and The Star do not exercise intelligence and innovative arguments.

(The Star) - The Opposition is only good at criticising the Government without displaying any concrete policy or plan, said MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek.

He said the Opposition had never shown its programmes to maintain what the nation had been enjoying now or how to even better it.

“Job opportunities and a nation’s stability do not come naturally and should not be taken for granted,” he said.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。0 {  U* n' Q. ?. J- {& f& a

In contrast, the Barisan Nasional Government under the Prime Minister’s leadership had taken a step further by implementing its transformation programmes to ensure continuous economic growth and improve people’s lives, said Dr Chua.

“The programmes provide clear social and economic development and the whole direction is towards becoming a high-income nation by the year 2020,” he said, adding that economic and social progress for the next few years was vital in bringing Malaysia out of the middle-income group.

“If we cannot get out in 10 years, we will be unable to compete with other countries, including Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia,” he said during a dialogue with youths from 12 Chinese associations here yesterday.

The Opposition, added Dr Chua, had also managed to sidetrack people from the real issues affecting their lives and the country by creating and harping on highly emotional issues.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb$ M. _+ Q. _" J3 y0 i

He said while many were excited over the two-party system in the wake of the 2008 general election, they forgot key matters like education, job opportunities as well as economic and social development.8 m% Y% T1 n& R, @$ Q0 x- x/ g' i

“They seem to be more worried about other political issues that incite arguments rather than important matters concerning them.

“A two-party system that brings greater competition among political parties and provides alternatives for the people is good.

“Unfortunately in Malaysia, there are a lot of personal attacks rather than policy to policy or service performance comparison,” he saidos.tvboxnow.com8 O; \, R" m0 ~" `3 Z: @  K- B

Many people, Dr Chua pointed out, seemed to be less bothered whether the next government could ensure the country’s stability and economic growth, and create more job opportunities.

Earlier, Dr Chua, who is Batu Pahat MCA chairman, visited a health awareness campaign organised by the division’s 1MCA Medical Foundation at Taman Makmur.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。: ?( T  y& `6 l, F

In PUTRAJAYA, after attending the Prime Minister’s Hari Raya open house, he said open houses could be regarded as part of the 1Malaysia concept as it promoted inclusiveness.TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。% c" `  r. \+ P7 f) R: z
This concept, he said, was unique to Malaysia and should be actively practised.
From the news heading down to its last text, it is just plain insulting the readers’ intelligence and just not worth the money you are paying.

The news headline: ‘Opposition are mere critics’ – so, what is MCA and him? Please go and look at yourself in the mirror!

Instead of continuing to dish out such crap since Merdeka (Independence) Aug 31, 1957, can’t Chua and MCA come up with the right questions and issues?TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。/ v  \4 m9 y; B& v+ G4 E

1. Why is Umno trying to woo PAS and why is Umno, now led by the former racist premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad, calling for the implementation of Hudud?os.tvboxnow.com& Y( ^! J9 L9 o

2. If Barisan Nasional (BN)’s 1Malaysia policy, idea, guide or whatever you call it is to be taken seriously, why are people like the deputy prime minister allowed to be Malay First, Malaysian Next?% s7 A# R7 K8 g

3. Why are people like Ibrahim ‘Perkasa’ Ali allowed to freely spew seditious statements and use violence on the public?

5. Why, after 55 years, MCA is still talking about Chinese education and that it is the sole party able to defend it? Instead, by saying so, MCA has actually admitted it had failed to promote and defend the people’s right to mother-tongue education since 1957. If not, why are we still upset about this issue?os.tvboxnow.com8 n, Q) c6 Y' [/ ?& o# y0 C

6. What about the Cowgates and all other scandalous gates that are emptying the government’s coffer or depleting tax payers’ savings for the country?

I can go on to list up to 100 questions but I do not want to risk insulting or boring readers of this blog. It is enough to rest my case that MCA and The Star are insulting the peoples’ intelligence.os.tvboxnow.com- O- C& }5 m* u0 ?2 C

You be the judge. Use a mirror to question every paragraph in The Star report and you will see the light at the end of the tunnel!
