Chinese have little political...Let's be honest. Chinese have little political power in Malaysia not because of MCA's woes. Your political power is only as strong as the size of your support from voters. And the size of chinese votes have dwindled dramatically.<br /><br />Chinese now only accounts for 25% of the population down from 37% at independence. By 2021, the number will be 21%.<br /><br />Combine this with the fact that the majority of chinese live in urban areas. Votes in urban area's are a 'worth less' as it takes 3 urban votes to match 1 rural vote.<br /><br />This means, the political 'impact' of chinese is a lot lower than 25%.<br /><br />Therefore, even if MCA was whole and well, chinese would still wield little political power. <br /><br />Therefore, in the long run, chinese would actually be served better by a non-racial party so that they can combine their votes with other races to have a stronger say in the government.<br /><br />As time passes, MCA, a pure chinese party, can only get weaker not stronger. MCA will never reach the level of clout and strength it had during independence simply because he chinese are no longer there.<br /><br />Even Penang soon will no longer be a chinese majority state as its population of chinese is now 42%. Malays at 40%.katdognoreply@blogger.com
