GML sees rising demand for electric buses


“As Malaysia is our base, we hope that our continued growth would allow more economic advantages for the country over the long run such as increased job opportunities, capital investments and innovations in the emerging EV segment,” said GML chairman and CEO Pang Chong Yong.

JOHOR BARU: Johor-based bus and bus body manufacturer Gemilang International Ltd (GML) sees rising demand in the completely knocked down (CKD) segment as more countries, especially the United States, are looking to create or re-shore domestic manufacturing activities.

In a statement, the Hong Kong-listed group said this trend opens new opportunities for it internationally, especially with the growing global interest in electric vehicles (EVs).
