May I present the Perodua Alza car! If you ever find yourself in Malaysia, particularly in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, you will come across these hidden gems of cars for rent. Despite their modest 1.5L engine (HP of 100-150 pending model) and unassuming looks, the Perodua Alza proved to be a reliable workhorse for our travels, even conquering the challenging roads to Mt Kinabalu Park and Kundasang with ease. (1900m above sea level) Normally I would have looked for more familiar Japanese brands, but the Perodua Alza offered a low-cost effective alternative, with some of the models basically being rebadged cheaper Toyotas (as per google search). During our time in Sabah, this car exceeded our expectations, seamlessly navigating highways, mountain roads and some of the more rugged roads of West Sabah. If you're planning a trip to Malaysia and contemplating car hire, try exploring local brands like Perodua and it could be a rewarding choice that make the differenc in your budget. For logistics solutions to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, and beyond in South East Asia, ISD Logistics Solutions are on the ground and available.

Thank you Datuk Ravindran K., the President of UMW Toyota Motor Sdn Bhd (UMWT) for your time recently at the Working Lunch with Nordin looking at “ESG: The Convergence of Multi-Pathway Mobility and Greener Communities” The event was held in the beautiful Eastern & Oriental Hotel, George Town, Pulau Pinang. On the agenda was how a multi-pathway approach can improve the carbon equation and how it aligns with the Accelerating Penang 2030. How Toyota’s technologies can have a positive impact on the sustainability and design elements of Pulau Pinang, which aims to reduce environmental impact in urban and industrial mobility. Penang’s three-pronged approach towards Accelerating Penang2030 through Placemaking, Community-Building and Industry Engagement Initiatives all represent opportunities for strategic collaboration. Critical Questions: 1. What is a multi-pathway approach? How does this uniquely impact Pulau Pinang and the region? 2. Why should Malaysia use a multi-pathway approach to achieve net zero? 3. Can Malaysia achieve net zero before 2050? What role will consumers have in this process? 4. What role will the automotive sector have to play to achieve the SDGs and net zero? 5. How has UMWT created leadership in this field and will the current levels of investment be able to help us achieve net zero? How will this reduce the challenges of economic change? 6. How do you define the relationship between multipathway mobility and the development of greener communities? Toyota Malaysia #Business #mobility #networking #Penang #automotive #asean

The Kijang The Kijang, an icon of Indonesian roads, was born in 1977 out of President Soeharto’s ambitious push to build a local automobile industry. Soeharto was on a mission to boost domestic industry. First, he banned the import of complete cars (CBU), especially sedans. Then, he offered incentives to develop a local commercial vehicle industry. In the early 1970s, Soeharto launched the “Multipurpose Commercial Motor Vehicle” (KNBS) Program. the goal was to locally produce commercial vehicle that’s affordable and accessible. William Soeryadjaya, the mastermind behind Astra (PT Astra International Tbk), was eager to create this iconic automobile. The origins of the name “Kijang” are a bit of a mystery, but some historians say that William Soeryadjaya’s brother, Tjia Kian Tie, first floated the name as an option for this groundbreaking vehicle. Meanwhile, Jusuf Kalla, a key player in the auto import scene at the time, was on the team deciding the name. He pushed hard for “Kijang,” a name that would soon become synonymous with Indonesia’s automotive legacy. On a side note, historians have debunked the popular myth that "Kijang" comes from the acronym "Kerjasama Indonesia-Jepang." Instead, they clarified that the name was inspired by the deer, reflecting the vehicle’s qualities of agility and grace. #indonesia #jakarta #cars #history #bisnis

🚗While the Indonesian Automotive Market Sinks, EVs Soar: A Deep Dive into Market Disruptions (Analysis By AndreaAutoPage) 🚘 The Indonesian automotive market is currently facing a downturn, with an overall decline of nearly 20% compared to last year.
