DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang recalled that he had no hesitation in turning down a ministerial offer from MCA because he did not want to turn his back on the multi-racial platform.
“I remember that although the thought of becoming a minister at the age of 30 was tempting, I had no hesitation in rejecting the proposal from the then MCA president, Tan Siew Sin, for DAP’s dissolution and to join MCA for Chinese unity as we are not just Malays, Chinese, Indians, Ibans or Kadazans. We are first and foremost Malaysians,” he said.
