Perodua: The BN regime's failure

Perodua, a Malaysian corporation that manufactures K-Class cars, including the Kancil, the Kelisa and the Kenari. Established in 1993, Perodua has had a track record of failures in the UK as opposed to Proton's success in there. Wait, what?

Since when did Perodua start producing their own cars?

"Melalui Perodua pula, negara kita telah berjaya mengeluarkan kereta Kancil, Kenari dan Kelisa." - Buku teks Pendidikan Moral Tingkatan 4, pg. 137

Translation: Through Perodua, our nation has succeeded in manufacturing cars like Kancil, Kenari and Kelisa.


So, does anyone wanna bet on this? I don't think so. Now, let us compare Perodua's cars with Japanese automaker Daihatsu. We'll start with Perodua's cars first.


Now, to prevent anyone from accusing me of bullshitting, I will be using screenshots taken from Gran Turismo II. These screenshots were taken in the game's Daihatsu's line-up and used cars section.

PERODUA KANCIL






PERODUA KENARI





PERODUA KELISA




OK, I can understand that at that time, Perodua was still fresh to the automobile market so rebadges are fine but seriously what the fuck. You take a Japanese car, shove a Perodua badge up the car's grilles and call it 'Made in Malaysia'? This sir, is the true definition of plagiarism and a very good example of how fucked up the education system is. Its no wonder the only thing we have managed to produce are SPM graduates who can't even understand the simplest English sentences. No, seriously. I've seen people go 'LOLWUT' at me when I ask them the price for an item.

And how does the term 'plagiarism' fit both Perodua and the education system? You can put it this way. Ever since Perodua started out, it has been nothing but rebadge after rebadge. Proton on the other hand, produces shitty cars while stealing bodykits and other crap from Mitsubishi. Both automobile 'manufacturers' state that their cars are 'Made in Malaysia' when they are clearly NOT. Meanwhile in schools, we are taught to understand and follow instructions. We are not taught to think out of the box and look for the answers ourselves which is why the only thing an SPM/PMR/UPSR candidate needs to do is to just read his textbook for one hour per day because the only thing he needs to do is memorize crap. Heck, you don't even need to study for UPSR. The projects on the other hand, limits the amount of creativity you are allowed to put in so all of our projects are pretty much the same. Oh, and did I forget to mention the fact that most of us end up copying other people's work too? Don't ask me why because I'm not MOOhideen or Mahathir.

Despite my hate for Proton, I have to admit that Perodua is actually shittier than Proton(HOW COULD YOU FUCK UP SO BADLY). At least Proton can design their own bodykits from time to time.


P.S.: Newer Kancils and Kelisas = Opti front.

And what's a fucking Daihatsu Opti?
