Rebuild the Party, Transparency & Democracy



Promoting Transparency and Democracy
I believe that democracy thrives when we have a Party leadership that is accountable to the Party, however accountability can only be enforced through transparency.

Huaren Holdings
We need to INTRODUCE RULES THAT WILL ENFORCE TRANSPARENCY, for example that it should be mandatory for the Huaren accounts to be published during the Party’s AGM.

Currently Huaren Holding’s accounts are not transparent; members, leaders and Central Delegates do not know how much profit we make a year, how much expenditures are incurred and how the money has been spent. We need to ensure that the Party’s finances are being ably and fairly administered and distributed.

Furthermore now we need to provide financial assistance to our MCA comrades in Penang, Selangor, Perak, and Kedah, who having lost their state and parliamentary seats are no longer entitled to MP or ADUN allocations for their constituencies.

We need to also help to our party members in Sabah, who until today still do not have their own MCA state building.

Huaren Holdings belongs to MCA, and therefore to all MCA members. Therefore we should ensure that A SIGNIFICANT PART OF ITS PROFITS IS DISTRIBUTED TO ALL THE DIVISIONS to fund our activities as we seek to reconnect with the people.

Disciplinary Committee
We will also need to LIMIT THE POWERS OF THE DISCIPLINARY COMMITTEE so that its powers can never be abused to silence legitimate dissent within the Party. Our Party can no longer afford to ignore criticisms but must be brave enough to hear all views.

促进透明与民主
我相信,当我们拥有对党负责的党领导层时,民主将会茁长;不过,只有通过透明化,才能实现公信力

华仁控股
我们需要引进将会加强透明度的条例。例如,在我党召开常年大会时,应该强制公布华仁控股的账目。

目前华仁控股的账目并没有透明,党员、党领袖和中央代表并不知道华仁控股一年赚了多少利润、用去多少开销,以及钱如何花用。我们需要确保我党的财务受到能干及公平的管理与分配。

尤有进者,现在,我们需要为在槟城、雪兰莪、霹雳及吉打的马华同志提供财务援助;这些党同志在大选中输掉他们所竞选的国、州议席,使到他们没有资格获得选区拨款。

我们也需要照顾在沙巴州的我党同志;直到今天他们还未拥有本身的马华公会大厦

华仁控股属于马华,也属于全体马华党员。因此,我们必须确保把华仁控股所赚取的利润的一部分分配给所有区会,以资助区会的活动,因为我们正寻求重新与人民打成一片。

纪律委员会
我们也要限制纪律委员会的权力,以便纪律委员会不会滥用权力,使党内的异议的声音沉寂下来。我党再也不能忽视批评,而是必须勇于听取所有观点。
