MCA’s push for a bigger seat allocation in the upcoming Melaka state election is far from over, with the party signalling that it will stand firm in demanding more seats despite holding discussions with Barisan Nasional (BN) leadership.
This came after MCA president Datuk Seri Wee Ka Siong said the party had yet to reach an agreement on seat negotiations following a meeting with BN secretary-general Datuk Seri Zambry Abd Kadir and caretaker Melaka Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh in Kuala Lumpur last night.
The meeting, held at around 11pm on Monday at the direction of BN chairman and Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, ended at around 1am on Tuesday.
