KELANA Jaya MCA members embarked on a walkabout in Subang Jaya on Sunday to get closer to the residents.
Division chief Ong Chong Swen said close to 70 party members were involved in the exercise which covered covering 12 zones in the township.
“Besides fostering closer ties among members, the walkabout was aimed at listening to the residents to find out their problems.
“We also had voter registration forms with us, and advised residents who moved from other places to Subang Jaya, on how to change their polling centres,” she said.
For distribution: Lim (third from right) and Ong (second from right) checking the information cards before the walkabout.
The members also distributed information cards to the residents. Printed on the cards were useful contact details and list of areas that fall under the Kelana Jaya parliamentary seat.
Selangor MCA chief Datuk Donald Lim was present to speak to party members at Kelana Jaya MCA service centre.
“Many other divisions have started similar exercises too. We hope that we will understand the people more and I’m confident that the people will give MCA a chance if we continue to work hard,” he said.
He added that he did not know who would be picked as candidates in the next general election.
“Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak had said that only winnable candidates stand a chance to represent the party. They will be selected by the people, and not him or the party leaders,” Lim said.
He said Pakatan Rakyat should be able to accept criticisms and answer queries.
“The Selangor state government put a stop to the cemetery project at Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve but they have yet to identify another piece of land for the purpose.
“State senior exco member Teresa Kok also needs to provide an explanation on the eight parcels of land approved for Chinese schools. MCA, on another hand, has successfully built schools in a few places, such as one in Putra Heights,” he said.
Ong added Barisan Nasional was merely taking over Pakatan’s then opposition role to help the people to voice out their concerns.
“They say we are stirring up issues but isn’t this what they did last time?” she said.

总会长拿督蔡细厉在出席各州代表大会时，频频叮咛各区会领袖必须团结一致，抛开个人恩怨，不可互扯后腿，以便确保来届大选可以赢取更多议席。当被问及来届大选遴选候选人的标准时，总会长一再强调，为了极力争取胜利，候选人必须是获得该区选民爱戴的领袖。
8月6日过后，当所有的区会都呈上了候选人名单后，却传出了马华某高层为了不让拿督翁诗杰继续在班丹选区上阵，不惜刻意放出风声怂恿该区妇女组主席梁小琴及妇女，家庭及社会发展部副部长王赛芝取代翁氏在该区上阵的新闻。
翁氏是308政治海啸中，马华在雪州7个国会议席里唯一胜选的国会议员，虽然失去了总会长的职权，但在班丹区依然老树盘根。相信随便找个人问问都会同意，假如来届大选马华要在班丹区胜出，翁氏肯定是最佳人选。既然翁氏已经符合了为党争取胜利的条件，为什么党中央还要刻意为难？
假若一边厢劝基层抛开个人恩怨，不可互扯后腿，一边厢自己却在遴选候选人时罔顾党的利益，公报私仇，乘机铲除异己，总会长就会变得毫无诚信，讲一套做一套，怎么让基层信服？假如总会长率先背信弃义，基层们当然也就无需再顾虑什么党的利益，同志的道义，在来届大选时只要己方的人不获上阵，就极力确保上阵的人不中选，大家就来个自相残杀的把所有议席都拱手让人，或许这也未免不是件好事，反正都在向总会长学习，届时所有的责任都由总会长一人去承担好了。
位于直辖区的另一个选区，旺沙玛珠也面对同样的问题，该区候选人拿督姚长禄在308大选时仅以百多张的微差票败给以公正党旗帜参选的黄珠强，经过选后的战情剖析，发现败选是由许多小因素同时发酵所引起的，其中一个最为不值的原因是，当地许多支持他的华裔选民，投票当天却把票投给了反对党，原因是他们不喜欢国阵，不希望让国阵赢太多。
虽然输了选举，这些年来姚氏依然在该选区上默默耕耘，为该区的选民提供良好服务，在该区的华裔社群里可说有口皆碑，更加上在上届大选时把票投给反对党的支持者都觉得亏欠姚氏一份情，假如来届大选再由姚氏在该区披甲上阵，他们肯定会把票投给姚氏，这无疑大大的提升了来届大选马华在该区胜选的机会，只是至今姚氏也一样没有得到党中央的肯定！
假如总会长要表现言行一致，真心诚意为打造一个不分派系，团结一致的马华，就必须以身作则，率先树立宽容的榜样；最直接有效的方法就是即刻宣布，来届大选班丹区及旺沙玛珠区肯定由拿督翁诗杰及当年隶属黄派的拿督姚长禄上阵，以事实证明本身的确是以党的利益为先，不是讲一套做一套。
