SEPANG, Sept 7 — MCA is one of the Barisan Nasional (BN) component parties, said its president Datuk Seri Wee Ka Siong.

Asked if MCA was one of the parties involved in the application to register the Perikatan Nasional (PN), Wee said: “In the BN context it contains Umno, MCA, MIC and Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) ... that’s all.

“So, we are part of the ruling government which is the PN.
