I COULD understand Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s disappointment over the mostly negative response towards the Government’s initiative for a new national car. I am not sure whether he truly believed in having it or was just testing the waters.
I have supported Proton since the very beginning and my most recent purchase was a Preve. However, we cannot deny that problems still exist in the national car company.
