I have followed your career since your novice years in politics, your ascendency to parliament, your 'plateau' periods and your 'down' times. As a 62-year-old Chinese Malaysian, I am convinced that the time is appropriate for you to assume leadership of the Chinese Malaysians.

Take DAP into the MCA unless it is impossible or anathema. Nothing is impossible but if it is anathema, I should add that times have changed this into an obligation.

If it takes too much time to join the Barisan Nasional, I suggest you dissolve DAP, then join MCA and you could easily take over from an already 'rotten fish-head'. We want a clean, credible, and on-the-ball leader.

If you cannot take up this challenge, you can only continue to dream about a Malaysian Malaysia.....for over 30 years of your stewardship this has been all sound and fury that have come to nought. A vision without action is only a dream. The time has come for you to act. Carpe diem.
