  • New Proton Car out by Mid 2000 (NST 16/05/1999)
    16/05/1999 New Proton car out by mid 2000 SHAH ALAM, Sat. - Perusahaan Otomobil Nasional Bhd or Proton will unveil a new passenger car in the middle of next year, chairman Tan Sri Mohd Saleh Sulong said. Work on the car is in progress, he said at the launch of the Proton Total Research and Development facility today. Without disclosing details of the new model, Mohd Saleh was confident it would be well accepted in view of the recovery in car sales. He said the new research and development facility would play a critical role in the production of the new model. "It is estimated that the R&D activity of a new model would require capital investment of about RM1 billion. This includes 35 per cent for the purchase of jigs and dies, and 28 per cent for procurement of materials for vendors." The national car manufacturer to date has produced seven models: Saga, Iswara, Wira, Satria, Putra, Tiara and Perdana. Each has two or three variants. Providing details of Proton's sales performance in the past year and to date, Mohd Saleh, who is group chairman of the DRB-Hicom group, said there had been encouraging improvement over the period. Through distributors Edaran Otomobil Nasional Bhd and Usahasama Proton- DRB Sdn Bhd, the company sold an average 5,000 units in the early months of last year. This increased to an average 9,000 units at the end of the year. "Monthly sales increased to 13,000 units in April. In line with this, Proton's market share has increased from 64 per cent to 71 per cent." Mohd Saleh said with more relaxed credit guidelines and improved performance and quality of Proton cars, he was optimistic that sales would increase to 15,000 units per month in the later part of the year.

  • Measuring the Performance of 100 Largest Listed Companies in Malaysia
    African Journal of Business Management Vol. 4(13), pp. 3178-3190, 18 October, 2010 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJBM ISSN 1993-8233 ©2010 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Measuring the performance of 100 largest listed companies in Malaysia Nordin Hj. Mohamad1* and Fatimah Said2 1Institute of Mathematical Sciences, University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. 2Faculty of Economics and Administration, University of Malaya, Malaysia. Accepted 24 August, 2010 The purpose of this study is to measure and assess the performance of 100 largest listed companies in Malaysia. A modified strictly output-oriented Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model is used to measure the relative performance of each company by utilizing a list of normalized performance indicators based on data published in the Malaysian Business (16th October, 2009). The DEA scores indicate that only 6 and 19% of the companies are operating on the best-practice frontier under the assumptions of constant return to scale (CRS) and variable return to scale (VRS) respectively. No company exhibits increasing return to scale (IRS). Most of the relatively large (revenue-top-ranked) companies show serious scale inefficiency and exhibit decreasing return to scale (DRS). Ranking based on the performance index reveals that top-ranked companies by revenue are not necessarily top-ranked performers. Although ten of the seventeen governments linked companies, GLCs are top-20 by revenue, only one remains in the top-20 ranking by DEA. Three GLCs from bottom-20 by revenue join the top performers exhibiting full scale efficiency. Non-GLCs dominate 75% of the top-20 DEA ranking.

  • Operations Review
    Operations Review PROTON’s MPV, the Exora, goes into production. PROTON 2009 ANNUAL REPORT 81 Operations Review The Group also anticipates strong local demand for the Persona and Saga, while export volume is expected to increase especially for the Exora with plans already in place to introduce this vehicle to the ASEAN market in the second half of 2009. Furthermore, with the expansion of the Overseas Manufacturing Plants in China and Iran, the export business on completely–knocked–down (CKD) vehicles is expected to increase as well. New robots and more sophisticated handling equipment were installed successfully with minimal line disruptions. Previous PROTON production systems and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) activities have already resulted in the main plant having one of the lowest downtimes in history and similar activities were implemented successfully in the Casting and Engine Transmission Department. Much effort was taken to maintain this. An increasing number of model lines or equipment was established through ‘yokoten’, a Japanese term which essentially means duplicating. The next stage in these intensive improvement activities will be the implementation of ‘Kobetsu Kaizen’ (which means ‘Focus Improvement’) and the usage of Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) as the de facto parameter to measure equipment efficiency. In view of PROTON’s commitment to improvement, the Manufacturing Division has started implementing the world-renowned practice of ‘Genba Kanri’, another Japanese term this time referring to ‘Shopfloor Control’. This is to reflect how the division is continuously improving itself by benchmarking PROTON against world-class industry players. We shall aim to reach level 4 (which means sustainable world-class level in shop control) in ‘Genba Kanri’ by the year 2011.

  • Say Hello to Eon's Brand-New Website
    MEDIA RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SAY HELLO TO EON’S BRAND-NEW WEBSITE • Website to optimise business growth in digital shift • Redeem a Shell voucher with every PROTON purchase SHAH ALAM, 9 August 2021: Edaran Otomobil Nasional Berhad (“EON”) has announced the launch of a dedicated PROTON Division website. The long-established automobile dealer is now ready to reach a wider customer base, every day of the year through its website. EON is PROTON’s largest dealer with nine branches across Malaysia. Created with the user experience in mind, the newly-designed website includes many features to help users quickly and easily navigate and browse for their favourite PROTON models. The integrated platform allows customers to check for latest promotions, book a test drive, reserve their next service appointment and even calculate vehicle loans, all at their fingertips and in the comfort of their home. Akkbar Danial, Head of Automotive Distribution of DRB-HICOM and Chief Executive Officer of EON believes that the possibilities are endless for brands with a strong on- line presence as a website not only provides massive opportunity for business growth, but is also at the heart of the car buying process today. “A new website was overdue. With over 80% of Malaysian car buyers doing their research on-line before making a purchase, it is only logical to have a website, and a good one that works well on personal computers, smartphones and tablets. “As the single largest PROTON dealer in Malaysia, we aim to be the preferred automobile dealer nationwide by positioning ourselves and bringing customers to the forefront of our ‘stores’.
