Fast super fast train in Europe.

Hope the super-fast train going to be built from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore is the latest super-fast train using latest technology and not 10 or 20 years ago technology. Why weary because when Proton’s partner Mitsubishi gave a car model to build , Mitsubishi gave Proton the oldest car model in production with the oldest engine for Proton to produce Proton Saga and also the subsequent models from Mitsubishi to Proton when models 5 years old and not the latest models.

 

Same when the foreign companies were given contracts to build roads, buildings etc., only build using older technology. Who wants to transfer latest technology to a third world country and killing off their own business, as Malaysian requirement for a foreign company was that technology transfer must be included.

 

Even the imported Vehicles assembled in Malaysia are older models and just have to look at Labuan and Langkawi or overseas Thailand Cambodia, Vietnam, Singapore etc.; the vehicles on the road are the latest models.

Our Economic policy on transfer of technology puts off the foreign companies as they have no control of their Malaysian joint ventures as only can own 49% where else the all do nothing 51% controls the company. Very Loop side of doing business. We can be thankful if very all 10 years behind of neighboring countries
