If you follow the timeline at the links below, it took the KCI approximately 30 years to penetrate the North American market:<br /><br />http://www.busanhaps.com/article/korean-car-industrys-first-time-battle-its-home-turf<br /><br />http://www.koreabrand.net/en/know/know_view.do?CATE_CD=0007&SEQ=1963<br /><br />But that was achieved via a visonary masterplan that leveraged upon both foreign tech and protective trade barriers to push the fledgling indigenous auto industry forward.Sure for a time consumers were the casualties but in the long run things evened out.<br /><br />That timeline is about the same timeframe with regard to Proton's existence. Yet we have not seen a single Proton model break into US mart, the frontier of automobiles. Now China is the biggest market and yet no strategic plan has been designed to get in there as well especially since the filthy chingkies have lower benchmarks for safety and emissions.<br /><br />What Proton should have done is to develop the requisite technological nous behind those protective barriers and unleash them just at the right time like the Koreans did.Remember too Proton frittered away an inherent advantage of access to more cntemporary tech since it came in late in the auto-manufacturing Kondratiev. The fact that there was no organised plan for such targets bespeaks how much Proton sought refuge and smug comfort behind those protective walls which inevitably comes crashing down sooner or later.<br /><br />Have we missed the boat then? <br />Maybe but who knows if <br /><br />a. we give Proton a three year deadline to retool and reinvent top-down in all areas of production before all protectionism is removed<br /><br />b. we streamline the national auto industry by merging Proton and Perodua thus yielding a product line for every niche and reaping economies of scae in return and after that seek a foreign partner to tap external marts, imbibe new tech etc (the Nissan-Renault merge is a good case model of synergy).<br /><br />But whatever the future holds,I still aver that a more equitable and trade barrier free NAP is an industry imperative going forward for protective constitute an added drag or dampener on local private consumption which happens to be one of the key drivers of the economy. <br /><br />Warrior 231<br /><br />p.s: Could all Dravidia Pundek Pudukus shut the fuck up if they cant say anything pithy.

We have seen back in the 90s how overcapacity, fierce competition, customers’ preference have changed in the automotive industry that the 2000s, mergers and acquisitions and alliances were the norm BUT of course … NOT PROTON.<br /><br />Looking at the financial statements we know now that even protectionism will not be helping PROTON in any way due to higher household debts, volatile consumer confidence index, increasing cost of raw materials, increasing fuel demand coupled with lower fuel output, and on top of that, the administration expenses of PROTON is mysteriously ding-dong-ding-dong due to restructuring and all.<br /><br />Now, if I was PROTON, the reality is that having the economies of scale is nature and is something I have to accept rather going against own nature. Thus, I would go having alliances as it won’t take long (say Year 2015), PROTON WILL experience PERMANENT RED. Protectionism or no protectionism ... does not matter anymore.<br /><br />PROTON is the national pride. I doubt not and Malaysia is the only developing country in this very world having own truly car manufacturer BUT without alliances … never mind … enough said.

Instead of following their lead in thinking global and quality from day one - Proton decided to be a 'jaguh kampung', happy to make profits in their home market under massive government protection, and because of that they did not care about innovation, quality and originality.<br />They had their chances to strike alliances to make them a competietive player but were too damn lazy.<br />The fact is when Malaysian incomes rise - we don't aspire to buy Proton but to buy Japanese, Korean or German.
