Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong revealed that the then United Chinese School Committees’ Association (Dong Zong) leadership had declined the PM's offer. “Najib met them straight without going through the then Education Minister and Deputy Education Minister. “Five years have now passed, and Pakatan Harapan is including recognising UEC in their election manifesto,” Dr Wee said. Dr Wee said if Dong Zong had accepted Najib’s offer in 2013, the question of recognising UEC would not exist today. But for us, we will work hard to fulfill our promises,” Dr Wee said.
