some people bash Proton for everything. Some bash for a valid reason and some do it for no reason at all...
perhaps he drives a Toyota or a Honda car or wants to get one. I've seen and talked to many people who hate Proton because they have a far superior car....
we can talk all we like about how expensive the japanese cars are ....but the thing is that theres nothing in the world that we can do. Reality is that cars like City and Civic or Vios and Altis are way above the budget of many Malaysians. The alternative is to buy cheaper cars from Perodua and Proton
just because you have more money doesn't entitle one to make fun of cars thats many are driving. is it fun when someone makes fun of your kancil if you drive one?
truth is, proton made some really poor decisions in the past few years. they became complacent and slipped up. My brother bought the Gen 2 when it was first released and wasn't paid for his patriotism. But we must be fair....i think the newer Protons are better cars. it shows they are making and effort and it is only fair to praise them for it.
The are improving and the last thing they need is for our own nation to condemn it regardless.. Perhaps some might be happy if Proton is sold and taken over. Personally, despite its problems, i really hope that Proton can do well again... it will be nice to see Perodua and Proton challenge each other equally...it would then ensure we have good cars and more choices...
Bash all you want....if u dont like it....but please dont call people retards ok?
what if u found out your uncle works for Proton as an engineer?
i am utterly amazed at what you just wrote. japanese cars are expensive in malaysia only because the government artificially inflates their prices and distort the domestic market with exorbitant taxes. if proton is really so capable, why does it still need the governments protection after 20 years?? vios and city should only cost RM55k+ without the duties.perhaps he drives a Toyota or a Honda car or wants to get one.

i know proton are trying to recover, and they deserve their due credit for wanting to finally buckle up and improve, to cater to what the customer wants. but quite frankly, they should have realised this long ago instead of this current desperation act. if they really want to show their capabilities, let the government open up the car market in malaysia and see them compete with other brands fair and square. a company will never strive to improve if there is no competition. equip their cars with better mandatory safety features (all their export models come standard with ABS and airbags, why cant they do the same for us? are malaysian lives really less precious than foreigners??).
please. study the facts first and be rationale before stating your opinions. dun be so ignorant to whats happening here. the rakyat deserves much more after two decades of blood-sucking. it is our hard-earned money after all.
PS: sorry for being OT.
