in my POV,

its not about starting earlier (Toyota/Hyundai/Ford) vs late starter (Proton)

Proton was created to rip off the rakyat themselves, producing junky transportation vehicles that was not created based on a nationalism mind.

Japanese are proud to be making those Toyota(s) and proud to be using them.
The same goes with the examples given like Hyundai with the Koreans, Ford...etc.

Now back to Potong...
Are they proud to be making a national car?
Potong Management: Our goal and objective is to juice out from the low/low-middle income rakyats as much $$$ as we can. Not to worry if we price our cars too high, the gomen will make the others increase their price so high that the majority population will never afford it!

Are we proud of the national car maker?
Do i even need to answer that?

Japanese are known to have high nationalism spirit. A 15 year old Japan car can easily be more reliable and perform better than our 5 year old Potong here.

its the gomen that is allowing us to be discriminated in the first place.

Nope, not ASEAN specs, especially Msia Specs

But like i said, i was referring to Japan Made cars, and furthermore the ones contributing the most to this is our gomen itself.

Comparing the same car we have with US Specs is a joke.
