We aim to be the number one in Malaysia by 2015 through effective marketing initiatives, backed by our technological expertise and strong support from our strategic global partnerships.”
“Today’s signing ceremony is certainly a step forward to reinforce PDB’s position as the Brand of 1st Choice,” he added.

Wow, it ain’t cheap equipment. From some forum, it said it is cost more than 400 hundred ringgit (i’m used MyVi 1.3L). Fortunately, I’m not ask the mechanic to repair it.

My car is only get 3 years old this June. It is common to get this problem? Any expert there?
KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 19, 2012): Perusahaan Otomobil Kedua Sdn Bhd (Perodua) expects to increase it exports to about 10,000 to 11,000 this year, from about 8,000 cars exported last year.
Its managing director Datuk Aminar Rashid Salleh said the target is part of Perodua’s five-year plan to export 20,000 cars yearly by 2015, equivalent to 10 per cent of the company’s domestic sales.
“We have organised a series of programmes for our staff such as sports carnivals in order to increase productivity and reach our target,” he told reporters after officiating the 1Perodua Sports Carnival 2012 here today.
Fourteen contingents nationwide are participating in the two-day carnival featuring tennis, ping pong, volleyball, football, futsal, netball, sepak takraw and badminton tournaments.
“It is hoped that this carnival reinforces our team spirit and enhance cooperation amongst our employees,” Aminar Rashid said.
He added that Perodua is still negotiating with the central bank on relaxing the tight loan conditions for hire purchase of cars imposed effective this year.
He said to date the effect has mostly been on the Perodua Viva model, for which bookings in January dipped by 10 per cent compared to the monthly average in 2011.
“In principle, we support the central bank’s decision, as we know the main objective of the implementation is to reduce the total household debt.
“However, we hope that the government would reconsider the decision, because tightening the loan conditions would affect not only sales but also the entire ecosystem, including production vendors and customers,” he said.
He also expressed gratitude to Bank Negara for its concern about the situation and for calling the car manufacturer to discuss the matter. “We hope to obtain a positive outcome from the discussions,” he added. – Bernama

PETALING JAYA (Feb 2, 2012): Perusahaan Otomobil Kedua Sdn Bhd (Perodua) will introduce a new variant of the Perodua Alza compact multi-purpose vehicle on Thursday.
The Alza Smart Ride (Alza SR) is now available for viewing and booking at all Perodua 178 showrooms nationwide and is priced between RM53,013.50 and RM56,513.50 on-the-road in Peninsular Malaysia.
Perodua managing director Datuk Aminar Rashid Salleh said Perodua targets to sell about 400 units of the Alza SR per month – about 13% of Alza’s monthly sales.
The new variant comes in three colours: glittering silver, ivory white and a new colour, mystical purple (pix).
“The new Alza SR is aimed at young families who want a flexible compact MPV with sedan features.
“The Alza SR is indeed ideal for those who want the extra space for daily usage as well as for balik kampung trips,” said Perodua in a statement yesterday.
Aminar said the Alza model is the country’s most preferred MPV with 81,000 units sold to date, since its launch in November 2009.
“The introduction of the Alza SR variant will make it more affordable for Malaysian consumers looking to upgrade to a more spacious vehicle.”
He said while Alza Smart Ride has less features compared with the standard and other variants, it does not mean the car maker is compromising on the safety and aesthetics of the Alza SR.
Perodua says that the Alza SR is coming with UV protected glass on the windscreen only, manually operated exterior mirrors and some other interesting things. However, features like ABS, EBD, BA, airbags or fog lamps aren’t available on the model, and also no rear wiper is available. Under the hood there is no change compared to the previous model and this is actually cheaper than its predecessor by about RM2.500.
