(Petaling Jaya, Wednesday) : Is Wee Ka Siong prepared to withdraw his statement made against the fiery speech and Hishammudin’s Keris wielding when Ka Siong said that the DAP is tarnished the good intention of the MCA Youth to explain to UMNO Youth about the uneasiness of the non-Malay community to UMNO Youth?

He said this in a statement issued yesterday which attack the DAP as ‘political squid’ but he himself forgot that he in an article written by him, which was published in Nanyang Siang Pao on the 19^th November 2006.  

In his article published in Nanyang Siang Pao on the 19^th November 2006, he said that

“今年（巫统）大会的一大特色是‘矛头对内’，有人竟要求检讨非马来人国阵成员党的地位，更点名声讨国阵成员党领袖，堂堂一州首长及资深部长更被指‘没教养’，真是‘亲者痛，仇者快’！”

“……要‘用”马来剑究竟是表达些什么？动机何在？难道非要他族流血不可吗？”

which means

“the major characteristics of the (UMNO) General Assembly this year is that there are people asking to review the status of non-Malay BN component parties, even more so when they openly mentioned the names of BN component parties leaders, one senior Minister and a Chief Minister are even called as “biadap”, it is hurting the feeling of their friends but benefiting their opponents.”

“……what is he going to show when he want to ‘use’ the Keris? What are his motives? Does he want other races to shed-blood?”

Since MCA Youth had already met UMNO Youth Chief and Wee Ka Siong was one of those attending, and since MCA Youth and Wee Ka Song had said that they understand the intention of Hishammudin using the Keris during the UMNO General Assembly, then is Wee Ka Siong prepared to withdraw what he wrote in his article published in Nanyang Siang Pao?

MCA Youth should know that UMNO Youth’s saying that the Keris is meant to ‘protect the all Malaysians and not only Malay’ is a self-manufactured reason to escape from their original intention when UMNO Youth Chief wielded the Keris Panca Warisan for the second time.

If this is the reason, why don’t UMNO Youth explain it publicly last year when the Keris was wield for the first time by Hishammuddin? If this is so, why all other UMNO forefathers did not explain it this way when they wielded their Keris in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s? Why, for example, the Deputy Prime Ministery, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, when was the UMNO Youth Chief in 1987 threathened the Chinese with a Keris when he wielded a Keris, shouting to ‘soak it (the Keris) with Chinese blood’ and not to ‘protect the Chinese and the Malay with the Keris in my hand’?

MCA Youth Chief, especially Wee Ka Siong should not self-consoling themselves when Hishammuddin has already said clearly that he will wield the Keris again next year but to speak up if they themselves are also not happy or they feel neglected by UMNO Youth.
