National car benefits market

From Neraca

I have wanted to own a car for a long time, a luxury
automobile if possible. Therefore the decree on the national car
has attracted my attention.

The many reports and articles on the national car have led me
to the following conclusions: The granting of facilities to the
Timor is less than fair. However, the policy has forced other car
manufacturers to reconsider the pricing of their products. If
they want to keep their customers, they must cut their prices.
Some of them have cut the price of their cars, coming close to
the price of the Timor.

I have decided to postpone buying a car until there are
further price reductions. I am confident that in a few months'
time automobiles like the Suzuki Esteem and the Toyota Starlet
will become cheaper.

I may not acquire a Timor car after all. I will choose a
better make at a comparable price.

People sharing my view should wait for the price decrease
before purchasing a car.
