The Malaysian Ceylonese Congress (MCC) is a political party in Malaysia. Formed earlier in 1958 as Malayan Ceylonese Congress before it changed its name to Malaysian Ceylonese Congress in 1970, the MCC was established as a political party. MCC was the brainchild of the late Mr. M.W Navaratnam and was formed to promote and preserve the Political, Educational, Social and Cultural aspects of the Malaysians of Ceylonese origin, or Sri Lankan, descent.
