MCA spokesman and central committee member Lee Wei Kiat questioned why DAP and PKR had remained silent about the strong opposition by PAS to the Cabinet’s decision that minors follow the common religion of their parents at the time of marriage when one spouse opts to convert. By Khoo Kay Peng
Politically, Lee may want to try to score some brownie points. Socially, it is irresponsible for Lee to continue instigating some politicians on this matter. As a party spokesman, Lee should adopt a more rational and responsible behaviour not to politicize this decision. Lee should focus on creating more awareness of the recent decision. Non-muslim couples should be educated on their parental right to determine the religion of their children. Lee's current action does not bring any benefit to the Malaysian Chinese community. Race and religious matters should be carefully handled in this country. We applaud decisions made based on common sense. Lee added, “The fact that Pakatan Rakyat parties did not hold a common stand indicates their fragility as a united team.” Lee should speak for his own coalition too. Can Lee confirm that his party agrees with UMNO on all issues pertaining to NEP, Islamisation, Perak power grab, money politics, socio-economic policies, political arrogance etc.?

Yet, today, the MCA thinks it has the moral standing to criticise the DAP and PKR. Lee, MCA cannot score sufficient points to win back the chinese. I am pre-Merdeka born and I don't support the MCA and what about those post Merdeka? MCA is doggone for sure. MCA cannot even take care of its own house, yet want to score points against DAP and PKR.
