Kepada Semua Ahli-ahli MCA yang di hormati,
Bahawa Yip Kum Fook ketua Gombak MCA dan Yip Jiun Hann ketua pemuda MCA Gombak, bapa dan anaknya cuba merebut Jawatan Tinggi pusat MCA pada Dec ini.
Kami harap Ahli-ahli MCA menimbang dengan sedalam-dalamnya, janganlah undi orang yang bermuka dua kerana perangainya sangat jahat di masyarakat Orang Cina Malaysia.
Dia guna kuasa tipu wanita, merosakan keluarga orang lain, sampai wang SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE, DESA JAYA, KEPONG, KL pun berani telan dan tanah tokong India di Taman Daya dia pun tamak membakar untuk kekaya sendiri.
Sekiranya kumpulan opportunist semacam ini disokong dalam parti MCA, kami yakin parti MCA sampai bila pun tidak bolih berkembang.
