While MCA tries its best to perform for the sake of the Chinese community, DAP on the other hand prefers to start verbal fights, proving that they do not put in effort nor do they know how to work properly, thus earning the moniker the "Democratic Action-less Party".

During the Chinese New Year period, DAP Johor had continuously provoked others, thus destroying the harmonious atmosphere of the Chinese Lunar Year.

DAP keeps bragging that they will defend the Chinese culture but their provocations during the festive celebrations of Chinese New Year has undermined the celebrations, proving that DAP has been fraternizing with PAS for too long until they have become too attached to the theocratic ways of PAS, so much so that they have forgotten their traditional Chinese roots.

Johor MCA, under the leadership of MCA President Dr Chua Soi Lek, had actively worked hard using the hands-on technique in order to protect the interests and secure the welfare of the Chinese community, including obtaining allocations for schools in the state, as well as getting the Chingay performance declared as a national cultural heritage by the Ministry of Information, Communications and Culture.

These results are obtained not from picking fights with others, or by simply issuing statements. If by quarrelling, DAP Johor can secure more benefits for the Chinese community, then they will not have wasted their valuable time and breath picking fights with MCA. However, in both Pakatan Rakyat states of Penang and Selangor, DAP has failed to grant lands to Chinese and Tamil schools, and to stop the Kedah PAS government from abolishing the sole pig abbatoir in the state as well as the 50% Bumiputra housing quota implemented by PAS.
