Wake-up call

A few days back, I was browsing for materials, past study or research related to my thesis online. Yes, already entering week 12 and I still haven't submitted my research proposal. Anyway, since my thesis is related to cars, I thought maybe I should start by looking at our national cars. So, I googled 'Proton'. That was when I bumped into this --> http://www.topgear.com/uk/proton

Top Gear is a well-known British tv series that talks about cars. I'm sure most of you are familiar with this show especially guys. When I was looking through the site, one particular part caught my attention. It was a review on our national cars that was brought into the UK. I was amazed with the review. A huge wake up call I would say. Here are some quotes from the site.



If you're interested in reading more about this just click the link up there. At the site you can also search about Perodua. The reviews are pretty much the same. Harsh comments, horrible ratings. But that's the truth I guess. We're maybe 10 years or 20 years behind in terms of automotive engineering or technology. I don't really know. But I'm sure they are right. They're good at what they are doing. That's why they are considered as the experts. Just have a look at it and you can drop your comments here later on.
