Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong has expressed his disappointment with some leaders within the government bloc.
“You can see it in the Dewan Rakyat. When I criticise the government, I am accused of all sorts of things, and there are even threats to bring me before the Parliamentary Rights and Privileges Committee," said the MCA president at the 50th Barisan anniversary held at World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur on, Saturday (Dec 7).

00:00The people now are not grouped into one party.
00:04They can change their position as long as the situation changes.
00:09And they will not necessarily stick to one party only.
00:15Meaning, they are examining and looking at our achievements.
00:20As the highest officials of BN, I think we need to carry the voice of the people.
00:26Not just from our party members.
00:29What's important is from our society.
00:32How do we carry this voice,
00:35to be heard, and finally solve their problems.
00:40So, what is our readiness for the 16th Piyayu?
00:44Or the upcoming Piyayan-Piyayan?
00:46What is our weapon?
00:48Here, I want to state my opinion with sincerity.
00:52The spirit of unity and consensus of BN must be maintained forever.
00:57Because it is an important element that must be supported,
01:01which supports the foundation of the formation of the BN political party,
01:05or the previous party.
01:07This understanding is our strength,
01:10and it also changes the opposing party to divide our unity,
01:15which has been built for a long time before independence.
01:18The MCA party believes that whatever transformation is going to be done,
01:22it should not be cosmetic.
01:25It needs to be committed to the desire to strengthen BN substantially,
01:30which is at the level of tradition and international trust value,
01:34which is the universal core value must be maintained.
01:37Whether we like it or not, we need to admit that
01:40this BN consultation concept is copied by others.
01:44This is a clear proof that the pure values applied in BN
01:49is a political situation that is in accordance with the Malaysian society,
01:53the Malaysian religion.
01:55It is useless for us to win with extreme support from the community.
02:00Because we as MUIBA agents,
02:02since the beginning until today,
02:04the MCA party has been ridiculed in various ways.
02:07We have been ridiculed for betraying and selling the rights of the Chinese,
02:10but we are still with the national line.
02:13We know that we have a responsibility.
02:16We are not a team to win the votes of the burnt villages.
02:19It is not possible.
02:20Malaysia is unique.
02:21Malaysia is a multi-ethnic nation.
02:25Diversity in Malaysia should be celebrated.
02:28It is not one thing that differentiates us.
02:31This is the uniqueness of Malaysia.
02:33And the second world value is democracy.
02:38This is what I want to say here.
02:40This is from my heart.
02:44We know that in a pure democracy,
02:49we used to be a backbencher.
02:52We used to be a ministerial team,
02:54then we became a minister,
02:58then we became a defender.
03:00Now we are not in the cabinet,
03:02but we are not a defender.
03:04We have gone through all these processes.
03:06But as a party,
03:09even though there is no responsibility in the current government,
03:13even though there is no responsibility in the current government,
03:15it's okay if you don't look at us.
03:17But at least,
03:19we want to act as a party with principles.
03:24Don't deny our rights.
03:27Our role is to provide support and balance.
03:31That's what we want.
03:33I am facing a big challenge.
03:36In the parliament.
03:38I don't know if the representative who said no
03:42went to the people's council or the food council.
03:45Because there is no handshake in the food council.
03:48I went to the people's council, there was a handshake.
03:51Which eye saw me making an empty accusation?
03:55Everything didn't happen, I tried.
03:57I couldn't prove it.
03:59But I was referred to the human rights committee.
04:01What is this?
04:03Isn't balance and balance
04:05part of our principle of democracy?
04:09That's why in MCA,
04:11we want to act, we want to provide check and balance.
04:15If the minister says it's not true, I'm right.
04:18What's wrong with that?
04:20And even now, it's proven that I'm not wrong.
04:22I'm not saying it's wrong.
04:24Who's wrong? Think about it.
04:26But the important thing is,
04:28don't deride me, my name.
04:31You say I'm using incorrect data.
04:34That's the data you gave to other party members, not me.
04:39That's why I said I was angry.
04:41And this thing, I was referred to the human rights committee.
04:45And I was said to have been slandered,
04:47that I referred the minister to the human rights committee.
04:49I'm not, what,
04:51we're like a piece of meat.
04:53What is this?
04:54That's why I said,
04:56we, Barisan Nasional, don't be bullied.
04:59As opposed to being bullied.
05:02We used to be the government, we used to be the opposition.
05:04It's okay.
05:05We have to respect others' views.
05:08We don't have anything.
05:10I won't be silenced for my freedom of speech.
05:14We're like a brick and mortar.
05:17We're siblings.
05:19If possible, 30 people,
05:21who wants to bully Wikasong, who wants to bully Sarawanan,
05:24you have to see their team,
05:26it's a team of 30 parliamentarians from Barisan Nasional.
05:30As a conclusion,
05:32MCA is a party that is loyal to our friends,
05:37which is UMNO,
05:39and also MIC,
05:41and also PBRS.
05:43We've never used the 3rd vote.
05:46We've never used the 1st vote either.
05:48Why?
05:49We know that we're like siblings.
05:53We're the same in the family.
05:56We can argue in the forum together.
06:01But we make decisions.
06:04Unlike other people,
06:06they go to the cabinet,
06:07sometimes they make decisions like the kitchen cabinet.
06:10It's a different cabinet.
06:11But if we make a decision,
06:14even if it's not 100% on our side,
06:16we support each other.
06:18We have the same responsibility.
06:20So today,
06:22I want to reiterate our commitment to MCA.
06:26We hope that Barisan Nasional, our party,
06:29will continue to be strong.
06:31Don't forget,
06:33our priority is Barisan Nasional.
06:37Some people like to mention other people.
06:41But don't forget,
06:43your beloved wife,
06:45the family member is the most important.
06:47Barisan Nasional family.
