The president of MCA Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek said that the party has no plans whatsoever to ‘punish’ the youth member who was the center of controversy when he ‘complained’ to the prime minister’s office of being awoken in his sleep by some loud ‘azan’ broadcast from a mosque nearby his Pantai Hillpark home. The lawyer has since reportedly move away from his home and the matter is considered to be resolved. To this, Dr Chua said that the matter would be put to rest and no further action will be taken against him or anyone else.
He said “In no way does it represent the MCA’s stand. We have one million members so the view of one member does not represent the view of the party. Similarly, Umno has over three million members and this does not mean that what one member says is what the prime minister is going to say. No formal complaint had been lodged against the member since the controversy exploded last week, and as such, the party had no plans to cite the man for indiscipline. If a person says something wrong, he needs to face the music. But we do not force discipline on one million people. I have not received any complaint so far. I do not think it is wrong. He is entitled to his own view and freedom of expression within certain limits. I am sure that he is responsible enough to know the sensitivities of all religions, not just Islam. The issue would not have been blown out of proportion like this... it is you (the media) who want it to be. These days Malaysians protest over everything,”

The MCA president and members are excellent apple polishers I see. Soi Lek should punish the member and see what happens to MCA's membership.
