Khai Red was Linged.

The MCA Youth had a twisted drama over the controversial remarks made by Khairy and demanded that the matter should only be sorted out through the Barisan Nasional supreme council and not through private meetings.

MCA Youth secretary-general Dr Wee Ka Siong said the party had not sent any representative to talk to Khairy. “The meeting between MCA Youth deputy chief Ling Hee Leong and Khairy (on Monday) was merely a private meeting.It was Ling’s (Hee Leong) right to meet Khairy as a friend to find out more about the matter. As far as MCA Youth is concerned, we have not sent anyone for a formal meeting with Khairy,” Wee told reporters at the Parliament lobby here yesterday.

Dr Wee was commenting on Ling’s statement on Monday that Khairy, during a meeting between the two, had assured the MCA he had no intention of hurting feelings of the Chinese community.

Ling had also said that both of them were looking at the greater interest. Ling said Khairy had spoken to him, as they were both counterparts in the MCA and Umno. “I was also one of the Barisan leaders who was not happy with his remarks. That was why he decided to meet me to give his assurance that he did not mean to hurt the feeling of the Chinese community,” Ling said. “We also agreed to take this issue as a lesson and to not use racial issues to gain political mileage as this will not bring any advantage to any person.”

Is there a crack in MCA? Or, has the MCA observed the dissatisfaction of the general public towards the shoo-shoo explanation given by Khairy.

Hishamuddin had said: “If Khairy says that his statement had been misunderstood, I believe that it had been misunderstood.” However this sounds unintelligible and unlearned.

Man has a natural inclination to know the truth and to live in society. All actions connected with such inclination comes under the natural law, namely, that a man should avoid ignorance that he must not give offence to others with whom he must associate and all actions of like nature.

I repeat herein:

It is impossible for the welfare of the community to be in a healthy state unless the political leaders are virtuous, or at least such of them as are called to take up the direction of affairs.

Simplistic and unintelligible reasons are merely smoothering voice does not supply the answers. Moral judgment is a readable argument that supports this conclusion, against the challenge of ethical nihilism, social and individualistic relativism.

Such propositions refutes themselves either because they are directly self-contradictory or because they logically entails their contradiction. Inconsistency between what is asserted by that statement and facts that are given in and by the making of the statement are performative inconsistent and utterly vexatious.

There are propositions which cannot be coherently asserted, because they are inevitably falsified by any assertion of them. Self refuting propositions are not logically incoherent. An operational self-refuting proposition cannot be coherently asserted, for it contradicts the proposition.

MCA Youth chief Datuk Liow Tiong Lai said:

“He (Khairy) has to be sincere and explain thoroughly via the proper Barisan Youth channel why he was misunderstood by the media, as he claimed."

Khairy, he said, should never repeat the same remarks again, quoting a Chinese saying that “the person who started the trouble should end it.”

“If he said he was misunderstood, tell us why he was misunderstood,” the Deputy Youth and Sports Minister told reporters after chairing the MCA Youth political bureau meeting at Parliament here today.

Is he (Khairy) misunderstood? Is that a good excuse to camouflage the true intention and an interior act of the will and was made voluntarily? Are we listeners that dumb that we could hear wrongly?

One of the Penang Umno Youth divisions held its annual meeting a few weeks ago attended by its Youth Leader. Many stood up to make racist statements, aimed at primarily the Chinese government of Penang. Your hair would have stood on end if you had heard what they said about the Chinese. It is a wonder no one rushed out onto the streets to start a race war.

Why do Malays feel it is absolutely alright to utter anti-Chinese rhetoric at Umno division meetings in the presence of Chinese media people? Are the Chinese able to reply? All they can do is sit quietly and not say a word. They can’t even report it in the newspapers although they tape-recorded every word. Malaysia Today too covered the event and all our journalist could say was, “Wow!” [Unquote]
