FORMER MCA President Tun Dr Ling Liong Sik says the two-party complement can work in Malaysia, though it depends upon the peculiarity of the Opposition.
Despite not carrying led MCA's charge in the 2008 polls, Ling in an talk with Sin Chew Daily published today, said the complement has been proven viable in alternative democracies, as great as as such there is no reason since it cannot be practised in Malaysia.
Ling said: "But it (the doing of the two-party system) will have to rely upon the peculiarity of the opposition. If they (the opposition) have been distressing (lousy), the two-party complement cannot be effectively implemented. If they have been very great such as in Penang, (it can be done).
"In fact the DAP has finished rsther than well, if not for the quarrel in between party leaders Karpal Singh as great as Deputy Chief Minister II Dr P Ramasamy."
Asked for his take upon Barisan Nasional's (BN) domestic fortunes in the next ubiquitous election, Ling, who has kept the low profile after stepping down as party arch nine years ago, did not chop his difference when he said BN will not be means to recapture Selangor.
He said apart from PKR personality Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Pakatan Rakyat leaders such as Selangor Menteri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim as great as Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng have built themselves the great picture for staying clear of crime as great as not carrying abused their power.
"Generally speaking, the Chinese have been not great towards BN, though they have no! choice in Perak. BN might embrace reduction support in Johor though not to the point of losing the state.The next ubiquitous choosing will be very difficult for Barisan, (but) we hold it still can win, since the government has been spending income non-stop underneath different names, that has not happened before."
Punters have been speculating upon the date of the next polls, with the latest being in September, though to Ling, "the debate upon the best time to call for choosing is one for that there is no answer."
"What you hold is the well-suited time might turn out to be otherwise. Therefore, the chances of the 13th ubiquitous choosing being hold in Jun have been not high.To put it more correctly, Barisan is not very certain either it can win in the next election. Some contend it (the election) will be hold in June, we do not know either it (BN) dares to go ahead, (as) there have been still the lot of crises (issues) that have been yet to be resolved".
