History

The party was established in July 1962 by a group of mostly English-educated Chinese businessmen, with the leaders largely from Kuching and Sibu.^[1] Based on the Malayan Chinese Association, its membership was limited to ethnic Chinese residents of Sarawak and the aim of its founders was to present a less radical Chinese viewpoint than that offered by the Sarawak United Peoples' Party (SUPP).

A member of the Sarawak branch of the Alliance Party,^[2] it won two seats in the 1969 general elections, and two of the three seats it contested in the 1970 state elections.^[3]

The party was dissolved in 1973 as a result of an agreement between the Alliance and the SUPP.^[4][5]
