2003-2008年马华公会的政策研究

2003—2008年是黄家定担任马华公会总会长时期。作为总会长，黄家定提出在维持族群和谐的基础上，进一步提升华裔在马来西亚地位的目标。为此，马华公会施行了教育、经济、党内改革、新村工作等领域的一系列新政，但施政效果不如人意，以致2008年大选失利。虽然远离政治，缺乏对华裔新社会运动的回应性是黄家定政纲的致命缺陷，但马华公会失政最本质的缘由还是在于马来西亚以巫统一党独大为核心的种族霸权制度。

Research of the Policies of Malaysian Chinese Association from 2003 to 2008

Ong Ka Ting served as the president of MCA from 2003 to 2008. He proposed to further enhance the status of Chinese on the basis of maintaining harmonious ethnic relation. Therefore, MCA had implemented a series of new policies in education, economy, inner-party reform and New Villages project in this period. But all those efforts were far from success, proved by the defeat of MCA in 2008 election. Although there were some important flaws in MCA＇s policies such as its step away from politic and lack of response to Chinese community movements, but it seemed that the most essential factor was the political paradigm characterized by the racial hegemony of UMNO.
