Perodua to ramp up production to cope with demand

KUALA LUMPUR: Perodua plans to ramp up production to resolve the long waiting time amid the rise in bookings which currently stands at 243,000 units.

The carmaker is facing a supply shortage of foreign workers and semiconductor chips, resulting in an average waiting time of between six and seven months depending on car models, said president and chief executive officer Datuk Zainal Abidin Ahmad.
