Zahid denies any move to expel MCA, core parties from BN

BARISAN Nasional president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said they will not be pressured to remove any component party from the coalition.

He stressed that the coalition is adamant and resolute in maintaining their core component parties.

“We will not be influenced by calls to expel any component party in BN.

"Only those who are daydreaming would claim that BN would drop its core component party, MCA, from the party,” he said.

MCA president Wee Ka Siong had earlier reportedly claimed certain “outsiders” had suggested that Umno expel MCA from BN.

He claimed that these calls were made by individuals who had previously accused MCA of betraying the Chinese community by partnering with Umno. – February 4, 2025
