Comments reflect a predominantly negative sentiment towards Proton, criticizing its engineering, safety features, and overall quality. Many express skepticism about the relevance of the seminar, viewing it as a superficial or publicity stunt, with some sarcastically mentioning Proton's past design projects and technology status. The discussion includes some mention of Petronas engineer Azmi Osman, highlighting his achievements on engine patenting and possible connections to Proton's technology. There’s also a recurring theme of frustration over the perceived lack of innovation, quality, and safety in Proton cars, coupled with accusations of government protection and overpricing. A few comments express patriotic pride in Malaysian industries, but overall, most reactions are critical and dismissive about Proton’s technological progress and seminar value.
