Hai,

Hahahahahaha! I quote;

Malaysian guy:â€ What?!? My own country made selling more expensive then Thais! What wrong wif my own land?!? BN=Barang Naik again!â€

Hahahahahahaha! This is the funniest (and true) joke of the century. Selling cheap at foreign countries while selling expensive at locals. Proton, may you “lingkup”!

*Smiling in it’s heart” Siam boy:” Oh, ur proton give good service to me that why i buy from them. It’s cheaper then ur’s… ”

Regarding to Proton effort to penetrate Thai market. This excerpt from today’s Utusan:-

Apichart turut membayangkan yang model-model permulaan akan berharga kurang daripada 400,000 baht dan disasarkan kepada pasaran khusus terutama untuk anak muda, pemilik kereta pertama dan mereka yang ingin menukar daripada kereta pikap kepada kereta penumpang.

Malah, tiada kereta yang dijual dalam lingkungan harga ini di dalam negara dan yang paling hampir pun ialah Toyota Vios, yang dijual pada harga 490,000 baht, kata beliau.

Is it under RM40k? Vios is only about RM49k there.Hmmmmmm….

Fishy Contractor workers:”!@#!@%$$#%!@#!”

Suppliers (Cronies) for the Fishy Contractor:”No, No, he is not bumiputra don’t sign wif him! He will suk our money dry!”

American businessman:” I rather cooperate with the Indian (Sime derby) , coz Indian prove to be good in engineering (India).”

French businessman:” That naza guy treat me very good with great hospitality + easiness of importing cars into Malaysia.”

Wealthy Businessman: ” (Thinking) I already have factory in China, now i just want to help proton to be like skoda Asia. WTF does they think i am so interest in their company? If not their people ask for it, i wont even visit Malaysia 2007!”

Predict in future what wealthy businessman may ask when in Malaysia :” What does Proton can do better compare to Thailand + Indonesia automobile industry?”

Malaysian representer :” Campro technology? Lotus? Err… Truly Asian?”

wealthy businessman:”…(Think my company technology is from stone age?)”

The scepticism surrounding the talk or negotiation is attracting much and much attention from the public. Will it be a blown-off or will it be a great surprise for all of us? Well, who knows! The Edge has been secretly leaking information and sneaking around the talk and from its annomynous and unverified source, who knows whether it is realiable or it just cook up the heat for P1.
In short, if you have bought or thinking of going to buy P1 shares, better be prepared to undergo a lot of stress as rumours nowadays are pretty much not true. All the best, P1!

Nobody knows because the partners don’t know – except maybe the Edge?

Does the Govt want to sell controlling shares? Mixed signals there…
If yes than the govt will set conditions like local investments etc to justify vw/proton to continue to get certain tax breaks….acceptable to VW?

Does VW WANT A CONTROLLING SHARE? Again mixed signals from VW. With the new board with Porsche on board VW seems keen to REDUCE BRANDS. There’s talk of SEAT, LAMBO, BUGGATTI put up for sale. Seems VW only want two brands -VW and SKODA for mass market cars.

So many unknowns – it’s not just a matter of valuations. Intentions are also unclear – except maybe to the people at EDGE

EDGE is… not a reliable source of info. and unfortunately, EDGE is a product of one of the the most read newspaper in the country. but it losing the credibility fast due to incorrect infos before. so..i’ll treat this news as a piece of a cooking stuff.

you put sugar. put salt. plus few herbs. to make it smell good. atleast it smell good. but still to taste.

i have nothing against the Chief of VW to come to malaysia. lai~lai~ we got KLCC (which the German dont give a damn about at all), we got Eye of Malaysia (and you might get killed because of the shoddy ground works), durian? (will PakLah fly another heli of durian to the meeting point?), chics ( i think European size or i call them Free Size these days, is oversized!!!), or you may go to Penang for a plate of Char Kuey Tiau!

or you can visit the Grand Ole Man at IJN. just sembang2 looooo…

ahaahahahahah

http://es.autoblog.com/2007/09/24/sudafrica-llega-el-ford-ikon/

if i’m not wrong its ford econo car for markets like brazil, africa… based on fiesta if i’m not wrong.. it seriously reminds me of our BLM.. but i seriously hope tat our BLM, despite being an affordable family car, has some character in it.. like other new protons.. of course d good characters! cheers..
