KUALA LUMPUR: MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek says he will not debate with DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng any more.

Dr Chua said the MCA presidential council decided Tuesday that he should not debate with Lim any more because they felt it was a waste of time.

"Lim Guan Eng was just using the debate to attack other people except Anwar (Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim) and does not participate in a healthy debate," he told a press conference after the MCA presidential meeting here.

Dr Chua said Lim used the platform only to rubbish other people's arguments and did not answer any questions posed to him.

"I also agree with my colleagues that I will not be accepting more debates from him," he said.
