PENANG, Sept 9 (Bernama) -- MCA secretary-general Datuk Wong Foon Meng must prove that he is a man of his words with action instead of just urging for people's support, said sacked MCA deputy president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek.
Dr Chua said Wong had been very secretive about MCA's impending extraordinary general meeting (EGM) and thus must match his words with action.
The purpose of the EGM was not to bring anyone down but to bring better changes to put the party on a stronger footing, he told reporters before a dinner with his supporters here Wednesday.
"The EGM has to be handled cautiously in order not to lead to more controversial issues," he said.
Dr Chua was expelled from MCA last month upon the recommendation by its disciplinary board for tarnishing the party's image following his sex video scandal.
Earlier this month, he had claimed that his supporters had amassed more than the required 800 signatures from party central delegates to hold an EGM to reverse his sacking and to reinstate him to his former position.
He has until Sept 16 to appeal his expulsion.
Meanwhile, MCA president Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat had called for the EGM to be held before Sept 30.
The duo (Ong and Chua) had been at each other's throats since the sacking.
