Following the recently announced 2016 National Budget presentation by our Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, local automaker, Perodua has issued an official statement in regards of the welfare of the lower-income segment of society and to further improve infrastructure, investment and economic activities among SMEs.
Below is Perodua’s response to the 2016 Budget announcement:
On the increase in minimum wage to RM1,000 in West Malaysia and to RM920 in East Malaysia; while we encourage better pay, we also emphasise on higher productivity to justify the increase in wages.
We hope that the government would further engage the various stakeholders such as industries and especially SMEs so that the implementation of higher wages would have the desired effect.
We also hope that the increase in wages and benefits to the public sector will also translate into a better quality of service.
Perodua is committed to offer affordable yet quality products and services without compromising on safety to our customers and the Malaysian public. Our transformation journey will continue and we would like to thank all our stakeholders including our customers for making Perodua the brand of choice.
