Threats have been issued to institute legal proceedings against me over my statement that the police report by a MCA Operative triggered the Internal Security Act arrest of Teresa Kok.
I have issued a statement yesterday.
I am now outside the country. But I accept the challenge of a legal suit.

Greetings!
We will fights that kind of silly threats all till the end.
By the way, this morning while I was standing inside one of the court room in Federal High court to support RPK, a breaking new about RPK posted “Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Kamarudin was sent to the Kamunting Detention Centre in Taiping, Perak this morning to begin his two-year detention without trial under the Internal Security Act.” No law and useless we are having such a beautiful well renovated court room. SHAME…

To our much-respected and indefatigable YB, there’s nothing to worry about. We are always with you. Truth and justice will always prevail!
#6 by oknyua on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 2:36 pm
YB Lim KS,
this type of issue they would rather sue you than looking deeply into themselves. Which issue is important, comparatively, Teresa being ISA-ed without reason, or to justified MCA had never been connected to the person making the police report? Of course you accept but what a waste of time and energy on MCA. I rather see you getting into something more worthy than the proven not-much-use MCA.

Uncle Kit,
You are not alone in this fight against eunuchs and running dogs of UMNO.
Their end is near as BN is a sinking ship. We will let them all drown slowly.

The best thing for us voters to do is to bury MCA at the next GE to get rid of this mosquito party.Ong Tee Keat must be taught a bloody good lesson for they still haven’t learned the lesson of 8th March,picking up an issue like the police report supposedly made by an MCA operative.Bury this Ong Tee Keat as well for thinking that he is fighting for the Chinese.
#9 by penang308 on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 3:08 pm
Dear Mr Lim,
We don’t call MCA the “Malaysia Chicken Association” for nothing, after discovered what they have done is wrong they just denied it, just like Ahmad Ismail claiming that he was misquoted!
Go for it Kit, EXPOSE that operative!

Go, Uncle Lim, go!
#11 by baoqingtian on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 3:24 pm
Any forms of action by MCA against any DAP members will invariably
infuriate a lot of people including MCA members. It does not matter who is in the wrong on this issue.
#12 by biggun on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 3:32 pm
Why blame the leaders of MCA? Members of MCA is liable for the acts of their LEADER, because they chose THEM, ALL the MCA members should apologised to the Malaysian for their wrong pick!!!
#13 by OldManoftheSea on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 3:33 pm
I am so angry with MCA. Pai Wah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#14 by biggun on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 3:41 pm
My dad pay membership fees to MCA, MCA use my dad money to cheat MALAYSIAN. I solemnly declared that all of the member of our family will for life never join MCA.

I 100% Support u to fight this group of cowards. They dare to challenge u???? They are not at your standard. I 100% Support U.
#20 by ganges on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 4:11 pm
Mr.Lim, This threat is a child’s play for.For your age,you have seen life and gone thru so much to be seated where you are today. Dont bother about this kid.The only thing that BN can do efficiently is to intimidate its rakyat to ISA.So Mr.Lim the moment Pakatan gets the keys to Parliament ,your first assignment it to burn down the famous Kamunting, and in its place build a big school or a hospital.
#21 by yhsiew on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 4:17 pm
I agree that Kit accepts the challenge of a legal suit so that when the challenge becomes big news in the newspapers, the whole Malaysia know MCA betrayed the Chinese in order to please UMNO.
#22 by lew1328 on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 4:18 pm
Ganges: ‘Mr.Lim the moment Pakatan gets the keys to Parliament ,your first assignment it to burn down the famous Kamunting detention camp, and in its place build a big school or a hospital’
I fully agreed on this proposal but not hospital since we had one in Taiping. I want to suggest building a University.
#23 by dap-for-pj on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 4:35 pm
Better suggestion, build a “BN Holocaust Museum” with wax figurines of RPK and Anwar with black eye.
#24 by hadi on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 4:45 pm
Yes YB Kit take the challenge. We will make sure MCA will regret and that MCA presidential candidate will learn a good political lesson from you.
#25 by AsalUsuLMalaysia on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 4:51 pm
YB Kit i support ur wisdom to fight,
IMO, We Chinese have same common sense, “that other people childrens we can’t teach, but we can give advise”. BUT MCA we’re Chinese agains chinese, i would like our corrupted chinese leaders goes down before they drag us all to hell by agreeing and following sense of money and not wisdom.
Its time we teach them a lesson to be learn, selling out our race for sake of money priority, they forgot when they’ve gone someday the future of Chinese and other minority races in Malaysian would suffered the wrath of ISA’d if any dares to utter our right as Malaysian citizenship.
Are these “RRA” rules stated below applied for “Unity or Repress?”
What about the minority who lives in this country for centuries, and why we have representative like MCA/Gerakan who sale out our rights?!!!
*The Race Relations Act. Among the clauses will be:
1) Forbidden to question Ketuanan Melayu
2) Forbidden to question Malay special rights
3) Forbidden to question the social contract
4) Forbidden to ask for equal treatment for all races
5) Forbidden to call anybody penumpang (Umno members excepted)
etc, etc.
MCA/GERAKAN DOES NOT REPRESENT CHINESE! THESE CRONIES ARE BUNCH OF CROOKS WHO SALES EVERYTHING REGARDLESS OF OUR FUTURE! THEY DOESN’T HAVE THE INTELLECT’S TO ELABORATE WITH THEIR ASSES! THE WHOLE NATION WOULD SUFFERED THE AFTERMATH OF THEIR WRONG DOING IN FUTURE INCLUDING THEIR OWN SIBLINGS AND CHILDRENS!
#26 by baochingtian on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 4:56 pm
I’m not very convinced that those guys who went together to make the police report meant well. If they were sincere, they could have contacted Teresa to caution her. Also, we didn’t see them defending for Teresa after she has been arrested. So how do we interprete it? May be OTK can interpret better?
My heart aches thinking the long legal process our YB Lim has to go thru, at his current age……
Do MCA leaders feel that this is what rakyat wants? Is this an important issue to pursue for Malaysia? Or this is damn important for MCA leaders personally?
#27 by baochingtian on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 5:01 pm
I’m sure the other party is more than happy to see these two parties fighting with each other. MCA, pls don’t be arrogant, don’t waste the nation’s resources, just be a good minister to all malaysians. Show us your results that you are better than your senior in handling the portfolia you’re in.
#28 by EricOng on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 5:27 pm
Yeah, challenge them to a legal suit.
They no longer represents Chinese anymore.
#29 by Sony boy on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 5:32 pm
MCA,
You helped Teresa get out from ISA quietly and see what you get???
#30 by AsalUsuLMalaysia on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 5:37 pm
@ baochingtian…
Well im happy to see these tail waving bunch of cronies goes down with their pride, they’re only self-proclaim chinese representative. NO righteous thinking chinese would support them from now on, my vote rather goes to PAS as long as they follows the path of being liberal!
#31 by melurian on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 5:57 pm
i think mca would win –
1) the rep said he launch the report on individual basis and not behalf on the party (sinar harapan article). linking him with party name is slanderous….
2) msm, blogs, pinpointed mca – first slander the party did not voice objection in cabinet, next is highlighting “mca rep” when it is a personal action, making everyone believes mca behind the plot and further tarnishing mca’s name.
3) mca voiced against isa arrest on tan and teresa, and it appears many msm. to say the party another way is outrageous.
#32 by melurian on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:02 pm
4) no evidence to link mca ? don think the polis report use the name “mca” or “saya sebagai wakil mca”…… it;s all “stereotype”, when the member of the party launch report, it is automatically perceived as mca’s job……
#33 by tswern on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:22 pm
They are barking up the wrong tree….
#34 by AsalUsuLMalaysia on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:23 pm
FACT IS:
• Failure of the MCA Ministers to demand in the Cabinet meeting for the immediate and unconditional release of Teresa Kok under the ISA; and
• For Teresa’s ISA detention as it was based on a police report by a key MCA operative in Puchong.
Faking it by using publicity to cheat the nation is great idea infact they cheated melurian aswell. Or maybe your just one of their cronies working hard as your doing now to distort us in here.
#35 by Lim Koo on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:29 pm
My spectacles almost dropped when I heard what an ex-MCA minister said:
“We should not dispute the quota system on university intake and other so-called unfair treatments to Chinese. We are from a civilization of 5,000 years, and theirs is hardly 3 hundred years. It would certainly not be fair for them to compete with us at the same starting points…”
With due respect, this scholar of the Red Mansions (a Chinese literature classic in which the chief character cared so much for the flowers that he buried them when they fell) should enlighten himself with what Darwin said — “the fittest survive”.
Yes, the fittest survive, not the most civilized, the smartest, nor the most hard-working.
The ancient China reached the apex of civilization during the Tang Dynasty. But where the hell is Tang Dynasty now? It was destroyed by the less civilized, but fitter-to-survive rival.
A monk went into the jungle and was confronted by a pack of hungry wolves. Holding fast to his belief that it would be a good deed to feed the wolves, he sacrificed himself as their food.
We don’t want to be led by such leaders.
#36 by justiciary on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:34 pm
YB LKS,go ahead with their legal suit and challenge.There are hundreds of thousands of right thinking people standing steadfastly with you.MCA or ‘Han Jian Jou Gou’ have already been thrown into the human garbage dumpsite by the people they have claimed to represent.A lot of people are spitting at the running dogs who are self serving and greedy wealth and position seekers.They are the ‘Min Zhu Bai Rui’ or the rotten eggs of our own kind.
#37 by melurian on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:38 pm
put it this way, a person picked up newspaper and read the seditious statement and went to launch report, is he guilty ? especially he launched with tidak mewakili mana-mana pihak, so is it mca got the right to clear its name. and the person is acting as “whistleblower” here. of course polis will act only on report, and it is coincident that the polis acting on his report.
as for cabinet meeting, i thot cabinet meeting on every wednesday, surely mca failed to convince their big brother, but that does not mean they din try ….. (they tried all their best, but their best is not at your par)……
#38 by melurian on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:40 pm
like lim keng yaik said “bagi satu juta petisyen pun apa gunanya, bagi satu juta ringgit oklah”, you have hundreds of thousands ppl voice support oso tak guna one, mca has solid points in their defamation suit, best is lks minta maaf saje-ler for “misunderstanding” – piece of advice……..
#39 by justiciary on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:47 pm
That ex minister had already made enough fortune that can last at least three hundred years.That is why he can afford to make that kind of statement.But he has overlooked the fact that many of his own kind are still suffering and living below the poverty line although they enjoy the legacy of the 5000 year old civilisation.
#40 by Anti-Monarchy on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 7:26 pm
Yes, yes…The FRU need not use water cannon if there were to be another HINDRAF gathering, just call in Lim Keng Yaik and he will spray his potent saliva!!
#41 by wanderer on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 7:41 pm
Excellent YB, take them on. These coward MCA politicians…always with false guts. Better still expose their hypocrisy.
#42 by my on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 7:43 pm
what can i say? very brave to accept this challenge, however this is not a ‘who is right or wrong’ challenge. this is one way or the other, who will be crowned the donkey award? DAP or MCA we shall see? My bet on the latter one
#43 by cinaUSJ on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 7:52 pm
Uncle Lim, I will also support you. These mca and gerakan are useless to us, only know how to kowtow Barisan. I hope PR will not let us down thus take over BN asap. RPK are suffering. We (your supporters ) are suffering bad too. Heartbreak lah!!!!!!
#44 by badak on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 8:04 pm
Let MCA sue …Let all MALAYSIAN know the truth.When will MCA open its eyes.UMNO is just using MCA ,Or MCA leaders are using UMNO to get what they want.
#45 by jt84 on Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 8:20 pm
YB Lim,
Your acceptance of a challenge of legal suit speaks well for your courage and spirit. Ong Tee Keat of MCA is arrogant and he should apologize to YB Lim Kit Siang publicly (before Pakatan Rakyat takes over the Government). He has insulted the chinese community and in the fact all Malaysians by accusing our representative (YB Lim Kit Siang) for more than 3 decades!
YB Lim Kit Siang is a hero to chinese, malays and indians (All Malaysians!) while Ong Tee Keat only claimed to be a representative to the chinese community. Who are you representing now when the chinese community rejects you?
While I used to have respect for MCA, now only Ong Ka Ting left in MCA to be a descent one at the moment.
I am disgusted, the chinese community is disgusted, Malaysians are disgusted of your disrespect (tone of language) shown to Uncle Lim Kit Siang…even Pak Lah has yet to show such disrespect to Uncle Lim.
Ong Tee Keat. Retract your accusation and apologize to Uncle Lim now!
I am shocked to learn about such arrogant leader still exisit in MCA. You have shown disrespect to the founding father of MCA the late Tun Tan Cheng Lock.

Has he got the cut? Shameless … like Ong Ka Ting. These guys have mirrors that reflect what they want to see. Pathological. These guys need help.

release RPK !!! i am no expert in Islam but still very against ISA. Whatever reason, charge him in court. It show’s that the BeEnd has got a very weak case against RPK. They just want to lock him up so that he will not expose the disgusting BeEnd’s deed ? or until NTR take over ?
We are all behind RPK !!! and PR !!!

Mr Lim,
We can make a small contribution for your defence .
Can count on plenty of people to come forth.
Take them on!!! God is with you always!!!
Suddenly MCA said that they are happy that Theresa was freed!!!
Ha!Ha!Ha! Make my toes laugh. Before March 8 they would sing a different tune. Now after the battering they change their tune very fast!!!
We are with you , Mr Lim!!!
