The Royal Customs of Malaysia confiscated 37 Wald-branded cars belonging to Amazing Tempo Sdn Bhd last week at Teluk Intan. The cars included Wald-badged Toyota Harriers and Volkswagen Touareg SUVs.
Amazing Tempo Sdn Bhd belongs to Tunku Datuk Zainol Tengku Izham and Ramzia Arshad and was issued 2025 APs this year. MITI has halted the issuance of APs to Amazing Tempo Sdn Bhd because of non-compliance.
The question we asked when I blogged about this previously is, why did MITI stop issuing APs to Wald? Why have the cars been confiscated? Has Amazing Tempo Sdn Bhd been made a scapegoat? Click here to read the rest of Why did MITI stop issuing APs to Wald’s Amazing Tempo Sdn Bhd?
Vehicle sales bounced back up from a slowdown in July 2005 to a figure that’s the second highest this year so far in August 2005.
Sales for the month of August was 50,079 units. The highest sales for a month this year was March, where 50,564 vehicles were sold.
Analysts have expected sales to drop again for September as consumers would be hesistant to purchase vehicles, instead waiting for the government to announce the new National Automotive Policy.
There was also a flat sales trend for non-national cars in August, which analysts say was probably because of the PGE fine slapped on the best-selling non-national Korean vehicles.
Hansraj Hulaschand and Company and Bhudeo in association with Air Nepal International and Nabil Bank is running a promotion in Nepal where you can win a free four-day and two-night holiday for two to Malaysia if you buy a Proton vehicle.
Proton dealers seem to be running promotions in every country. The promotion by the bank also includes special interest rates and a 95% loan. Over here in our tanahair we can see free two months installments being offered.
Sources familiar with the matter have said that Proton is unlikely to go with the equity stake exchange deal with Volkswagen AG, instead choosing to go with a tech agreement instead.
If the tech deal goes through, this will mean Volkswagen will take 51% control of only Proton’s engineering and manufacturing units and not a stake in Proton Holdings Berhad.
Proton had informed Bursa Malaysia on Monday that there was no significant breakthrough or developments in it’s talks with Volkswagen so far.
