Liow: Supporters Will Accept Any Post Contested	\| Print \|

PENANG, 13 MARCH 2010: MCA vice-president Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai

is confident that his supporters will accept any post he contested at the party
elections.

"I too have my strong supporters," the health minister told reporters when
asked what post he would be contesting at the elections on March 28.

Liow who is on a tour to seek feedback and gauge support from MCA members
said he would only announce the post to be contested after completing his
rounds.

On talks that some quarters in MCA want former president Datuk Seri Ong Ka
Ting to return to active politics, he said: "This is a new development and needs
serious attention."

This showed that members had an open mind about democracy and would give
anybody the chance to be active in MCA.

"It is important for us to get his view first," Liow said.

He hopes that the party elections will proceed smoothly as MCA members have
to cooperate to make Barisan Nasional (BN) strong.
