KUALA LUMPUR - The MCA is prepared to fulfil its role as an effective opposition by being a check and balance to the new government, said MCA President Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

He said the MCA will remain steadfast in prioritising the people’s interest, whether as a government or as an opposition.

"Barisan Nasional’s (BN) rejection (to join any coalition to form the government) is a demonstration of a healthy and matured democratic process of the nation and we respect the people’s wish,” he said during a press conference at Wisma MCA, here today.

When asked about what will happen to Pakatan Harapan and Perikatan Nasional if they do not have enough seats to form a government, he wished them good luck.

"We do not have the mandate to form a government, so this is not our problem, we just play our role as an opposition,” he said.
