National Automotive Policy 2014 lacks proper incentives, say dealers

“PEDA welcomes all efforts and policies for cheaper cars, but incentives should be given to manufacturers who produce made-in-Malaysia vehicles from their own research and development (R&D) initiatives,” PEDA president Armin Baniaz Pahamin said in a statement.
