Doing so will force the nation to buy P1 coz the annual impact is far less then the more popular marques. malaysia memang boleh on the speculative side what was the actual reason for the super duration loan? to clear up stocks? to lessen nations burden? to force consumers to favour it as it will give less annual repayment impact? coz P1 was going to close shop and the only way to keep everything alive is to do the most outrageous thing imaginable: extended loans with super low rates. I dunno the answer for that. How many P1 cars have safety crash ratings? it doesn't matter what the score is but at least we will know how well would the car behaves during crashes. And now the possibility of VSS for P1. Could be for good or bad but anyway I dun feel surprised. si vous esprit est placé sur Saturne puis votre tête doit être dans l’uranus désirent ardemment le proton de phase ! 9 years loan is LPPL. annual impact not so much coz spread through 9 years. by the time he finished paying for it the car would be worthless to sell n would have cost loads more cumulatively than the initial price.

Good move but gives a negative impression. At least EON is doing what they think is needed. P1 to offer VSS in the future? maybe yes maybe no. With plans to phase iswara n wira and if their future lineups cannot deliver the sales volume i'd say this is very very the likely case. If they really do the VSS, I'd say bold move. Looks really disgraceful from outside but for the good of the company, ya just have to get rid of the rotten apples in the basket. si vous esprit est placé sur Saturne puis votre tête doit être dans l’uranus désirent ardemment le proton de phase !

EON of course did well when they are the sole distributor of the Saga and Wira, remember that time you have to pay more money for a new 2nd hand wira to avoid waiting list of 1years when it was 1st launch? Then came proton-edar, who brought us satria and putra (correct me if im wrong). Day by day, some bright guy in proton to ask why are we not doing the distribution job and earn more money, get more control over the marketing of the product lines? Then came the super dealer deal, EON have was force into renovating their outlets and stuff like that for a more uniformed corporate identity, so EON is not having it well for the past years. Anyway, having VSS is not a back-step in management point of view, making you organisation work more effienctly by merging departments, paying more for 1 staff to do more instead of having 2 staff, removing seasoned staff and inject new blood is doesnt mean the company is in the red. only EON top management will really know this excercise is a call for way forward in running their business or an alarm for their share holders. but a hint is their only have 2,500, but didnt mention how many staff is getting axed, if its more than 50 percent, EON share holders out there might get a shivers down their spine. according to my friend ex-EON guy, EON was formed to sell proton cars, something like the VW in m'sia case recently, where a company is form just to proctect the interest of high-corporate players.
