General Motors is reviving negotiations that were scrappedback in 2007 with Lotus parent company Proton Holdings,
Malaysia's biggest auto manufacturer. Both brands are looking
to form a manufacturing venture in the Southeast Asian country.
By Jason Siu, Autoblog.com - A collaboration between the two parties would probably be mutually beneficial, with GM getting access to Proton's production in Southeast Asia while Proton would be able to take advantage of GM's technologies to boost their exports.
Proton Holdings is a government-linked company (GLC) with the majority of its equity owned by a government-owned company named Khazanah Nasional Berhad. Ever since an unsuccessful relationship with Mitsubishi ended in 2004, the Malaysian government has been seeking a partner for Proton.
