Actually silverstone used to be owned by malaysia lion group and since 2010, it has been sold to the Japanese toyo tires. This topic is saddening... malaysia once known as a big rubber producing country but couldn’t produce high quality product to the competitive global market. Sime and silverstone tyres whether value or technology wise is below par compared to competition. Nowadays most of the rubber plantation have been convert into palm oil estate. Meanwhile palm oil being boycott in Europe and now India. China not buying more of our palm oil and goes to Indonesia instead. Marvellous indeed..

Sad though. As a country that produces rubber, this is sad to see other countries succeeding but we cannot even keep up.
