so the savvy campaign backfired? I recall proton (during the time of tengku mahaleel) proudly boasting savvy to be TUV certified....

too bad syed zainal inherited lots of problems. i bet he himself facepalmed when he said those words....

True.

As for his awesome remark, judging by the way he said it, he has no control over the supplier. He was 'forced by certain parties' to use them or none at all.

No, I don't think so... He inherit the problems from Tg Mahalel and manage to turn the company around. The only thing is, he doesn't have full control over the umnoputra suppliers. Also, during Tg Mahalel's time, the management is a bit cocky... put any rubbish cars on the market, people will still buy and Proton will still make money. That's why you're seeing 3 types of cars which the market doesn't really want: Gen2 (a car that wants to be everything), Savvy (a small hatchback) and Satria Neo (another hatchback). What they should have released in the market are: Persona (good family sedan), Saga (cheap point a to point b sedan) and Exora (MPV market is huge).

another QFT, and also agree on Tengku Mahaleel's attitude.

he was the guy that say "malaysian don't want MPV/van-type vehicle" and instead produced that horror on wheels called Juara.

Tengk Mahaleel keep on emphasising on speed and power and sports etc. He even hired his son Tengku Djan Ley to lead the R3 group.....

to syed zainal's credit he did not fire tengku djan when his father's contract was not extended....

Syed Zainal, even if he is a crony, is the good kind of crony. a least he tried to fix up things and took customer feedback seriously.

that's why persona was miles better than Gen2, and I believe persona was the car gen 2 should have been in the 1st place....

Saga is now the no. 1 selling car in malaysia again (ok, it's no. 1 because people were waiting for new Myvi but still...)

btw i am more concerned on nadzmi salleh, the current chairman. he was the former Proton CEO in the '90s and i recall the proton quality started to drop during his time....
