By importing all the parts? Kinda defeats the purpose of CKD isn't it?

yes and no...

yes but lower costs allow them to offer lower pricings even if taxes are the same.

but if you were given a ckd and cbu at same price, knowing our local quality i will choose cbu always.

CKD is not always cheaper...
and CBU is not that godlike...
trust me...

example, honda jazz hybrid... go figure...

Point is, this sensitive topic, requires people to be involved in the industry to understand...
those outside will only see things on the surface and no amount of explaining to them will make them understand...

Let me see if my last 2 line proves me right.
