Proton tried to hush it up but it got out. There was no way they could have kept it quiet for long anyway.
- 800K cars on sale in the market (250k more than usual)
- 300 odd companies may close down. Many of these are component makers from Proton and mostly Bumiputra owned companies.
- Proton only producing 10K units per month as compared to 15K-16K cars previously.
The only company doing well is Perodua with good demand for it's Myvi models.
Sounds bad but I guess it might do some good in the end.
BTW, someone is cybersquatting. Check out this site. too bad Perodua didn't buy up the domain earlier.
