DAP Has Become Party Of Foul Language, Says MCA Bernama November 24, 2011

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 24 (Bernama) -- MCA has called on the new generation of DAP leaders not to turn their party into a party of foul language.

Wanita MCA secretary-general, Senator Chew Lee Giok said the earlier generations of DAP leaders, such as current DAP life advisor Dr Chen Man Hin and former secretary-general C.V. Devan Nair, had shown the virtue of rationality in the field of politics.

"But the actions of this current batch of DAP leaders who tend to utter foul words frequently, and worse, are actually proud of it, has corrupted the party's principles," she said in a statement, here, Thursday.

She said DAP elections preparations publicity chief Hew Kuan Yau had used rude words, scolding and cursing MCA leaders, as well as their family members, while Perak assemblyman Nga Kor Ming followed suit by uttering the words, "political prostitute" during the state legislative assembly sitting.

"Describing someone as a prostitute is very insulting indeed, and Nga Kor Ming should not have done that despite having differences of opinion with anyone," she added. Chew also challenged DAP women leaders such as Teresa Kok, Chong Eng and Teo Nie Ching to stand up and condemn the discriminating and insulting statements made by Nga against Perak state legislative assembly Deputy Speaker Datuk Hee Yit Foong on Wednesday.

Pandemonium broke out at the assembly sitting following heated verbal exchange between the government and opposition assemblymen over Nga's remarks which likened Hee to a "political prostitute" and a "frog".

Hee asked Nga (DAP-Pantai Remis), who was debating the 2012 State Budget, to withdraw the statement as it was an insult to women but he refused to do so, claiming he was neither accusing anyone nor mentioning any name when referring to "political prostitute".

Despite being asked three times by Hee, Nga still refused to retract his words and this subsequently led to him being ordered out of the assembly sitting.
