		<description>Poor to Proton, kesian. This is another foolish government project. This is not coorperation, this is to use Proton facilities here. For the the man behind this, that call the money. So, what the benefit to Proton, and to us as well. Proton, why u sacked ur previous CEO (T.Mahaleel) that bring you as a profitable company. He&#039;s effort that can built the ProtonCity. Poor to him too. 
 
..and the government say, &#039;we do this to make low cost car&#039;..Cheap price? em... all the car today is going cheaper.. the true low cost is joint venture, not like this. </description>

		<description>Another desperate move by the Proton. Doubtful with their built quality and safety features.. Proton + Chery = &#039;Pro-Che&#039; sound similar to Porsche.. :)   
 
I definitely not risking my life to own one. </description>

		<description>Wondering if the chinese cars would be worried about Thailand and others sanctioning against them due to &#039;unfair&#039; taxation practices like what happened to Toyota. 
 
It is a good thing. maybe some of that investment can be used to generate some income for the country (however where It goes probably would be suspect anyway) 
 
I wouldn&#039;t be overly critical of chinese cars. Give them a few years. Almost everything you buy nowadays from china are cheaper and better quality than just several years ago. 
 
If the chinese can CKD and sell a car similarly sized and priced as an Iswara, would you still buy the 25year old Iswara?  
 
Besides, with 2nd hand value dropping like a stone, why would anyone buy a new car is beyond me. </description>
