MIDA on why Hyundai moved Asia Pacific HQ out of Malaysia, refutes reports of falling FDI

Malaysia remains an attractive destination for foreign investors and reports alleging that Malaysia is losing out in foreign direct investment (FDI) is wrong, says MIDA (Malaysian Investment Development Authority). The MITI agency also adds that references to data from the United Nations Commission on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) must be read in the correct context. On Thursday, Singapore’s Straits Times published a scathing report alleging that Malaysia is losing its attractiveness to foreign

11-Seater 2020 Kia Grand Carnival price revealed in Malaysia - RM 175,088; replaces 8-seater

The price of the 2020 Kia Grand Carnival with 11 seats has been revealed to be RM 175,088 on the road without insurance. But what’s more surprising is that the 11-seater will replace the Grand Carnival with 8-seats entirely so there is only 1 variant. As predicted, the 11-seater Grand Carnival will be powered by the same 2.2-litre diesel engine that dispenses 200 PS and 440 Nm of torque. The engine is mated to an 8-speed conventional automatic gearbox. This means that the Grand Carnival will sit

The new Hyundai Elantra offers an alternative option if you’re shopping for a C-segment saloon. Being a CBU import from Korea, it is a bit tougher for the Elantra to compete with the CKD Honda Civic. A CBU rival of the Hyundai Elantra would be the Japan-made Mazda 3 Sedan 1.5. The Hyundai Elantra is now open for booking, but prices are yet to be announced. We expect the price to be around the price of the Mazda 3 sedan 1.5, which is around RM 137,660. One Korean and the other Japanese, we figure
