Liong Sik should cancel the mammoth MCA public drinking party in Kota Bahru thru on August 6 and instead take up my invitation to a ‘Three Lira’ public beer drinking party instead MCA Secretary-General, Dr. Ting Chew Pen said yesterday that the MCA leadership does not encourage alcoholism but gives its approval to the mamrnoth MCA public drinking party in Kota Bahru on August 6.

I do not think the organising of a mammoth public drinking party by MCA in Kota Bahru on August 6 is the best way to oppose the new Kelantan State Government regulation restricting the public sale and. consumption of alcohol affecting non-Muslim Malaysians, for it will definitely give the impression that the Chinese community represented by the MCA are hard and heavy drinkers, if not alcoholics.
