Future Selangor govt will include MCA, MIC — Amirudin

SHAH ALAM, July 7 — Selangor Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari has assured that MCA and MIC will be included in the future administration of the state if political parties in the unity government win the state elections. 

Amirudin, who is also Selangor Pakatan Harapan (Harapan) chairman, said the involvement of parties that represent the unity government is crucial in ensuring political stability in the state.

He hopes MCA and MIC would be involved in campaigning, even if both parties have decided to sit out of the six state elections next month.

“They should be included in the campaign and the future administration of the state. This is because we want to maintain the concept of the unity government, which I regard as the solution to the political uncertainty created in 2020.

“I want more people to be involved (because) more heads are better than one,” he told a press conference after the Selangor School Assistance Programme 2023 handover ceremony here today.

On Wednesday, MCA and MIC announced they would stay out of the six state polls to focus on preparations for the 16th general election.
