He is a member and State Chairman of Malacca of the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA), a component party of the BN coalition. He has also served as a Vice President of MCA since November 2018.[1]

Politics

[edit]

Lim first won in 2013 state election to serve as Member of the Malacca State Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Kelebang from May 2013 to May 2018.[2] He had also served as member of the Malacca State Executive Council (EXCO) for the Transport, Project Rehabilitation and International Trade Executive Committee of the state.[3]

He, however, was defeated by Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidate Gue Teck and failed to defend his position as the MLA for Kelebang in the 2018 state election which also saw the collapse of the BN administration in the simultaneous 2013 general election (GE14).[4] After the earlier GE14 outcome, in the November 2018 party leadership election, Lim was elected as the Vice-President of MCA in the new leadership line-up.[5]

Following the collapse of PH in the February 2020 Malaysian political crisis also dubbed as 'Sheraton Move', which led to the appointment of the new Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin and formation of the new PN administration in March the same year, as BN-MCA is an allied partner, he was picked as the Deputy Minister of International Trade and Industry and Senator by Muhyiddin for him to be appointed as a deputy minister. He was sworn-in and appointed by Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Al-Sultan Abdullah.[6][7]

In November 2021 state election, he get to be re-elected again after regaining the Kelebang seat back by defeating the incumbent Gue Teck.[8][9]
