KUALA LUMPUR: Globaltec Formation Bhd subsidiary AutoV Corporation Sdn Bhd has formed an alliance with China's Ningbo Auto Components Industry Association (Ningbo AIA) to merge the latter's research and development capabilities and financial strength with AutoV's manufacturing capabilities,
“This will enable AutoV to expand its production capacity as a manufacturer for the Chinese parties and cater for the massive China market, said Globaltec group executive chairman Datuk Seri Panglima Dr Goh Tian Chuan.
