Soi Lek, Guan Eng To Debate On Chinese Political Future

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 9 (Bernama) -- Come Feb 18, MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek and DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng, who is also Penang chief minister, will lock horns in a debate on issues relating to the Chinese political future.

Dr Chua said he had accepted the invitation for the debate which was organised by the Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute (Asli) and MCA think-tank, Institute of Strategic Analysis and Policy Research (Insap), during one of the sessions at the one-day forum on Malaysian Chinese political future at a hotel here.

"I will be having a debate with Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng during the Feb 18 Chinese political conference.

"I thank him for accepting the organiser's invitation for the debate," he told reporters after chairing the MCA Central Committee meeting at the party headquarters here Thursday.

The forum titled, 'Malaysian Chinese at the Political Crossroads', is expected to be officiated by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

All Chinese-based political parties, both in Barisan Nasional and the opposition, have been invited to present their achievements at the forum.

Apart from leaders of political parties, other speakers would include representatives of non-governmental organisations.
