The President has issued an instruction to the effect that PT Timor Putra Nasional is the only one company that has the permission to produce cars. The company is also exempted from import duties and luxury car taxes. PT Timor, together with Kia Motors Corporation from South Korea, manufactures the cars in Cikampek, West Java, and plans to put the new cars on sale in six months, by first importing semi-knocked-down cars.

Other car sole agents suspect the government in giving unfair treatment in the automobile industry. PT Timor will reportedly be able to sell its products at half the price of other cars. Of course consumers are eagerly waiting for these inexpensive cars.

In fact, it is not easy for PT Timor to produce these national cars because this requires the support of hundreds of component makers. Can PT Timor fulfill its commitment?

At least PT Timor must be given a chance. We all should give our support to make PT Timor's dream come true.
