Background
High efficiency and consistency of automation combined with the experience and finesse of manual practices is the foundation PROTON’s state of the art manufacturing and assembly facility in Tanjung Malim is built on. The technologically sophisticated facility integrates a skilled workforce of 2,000 personnel with the 180 precision robots making it the most advanced and exemplary manufacturing and assembly facility in the country and in the region outside of Japan and Korea. Costing RM1.8 billion and occupying 1,280 acres, the plant is five times larger than PROTON’s existing facility in Shah Alam, and houses five main complexes; the engine shop, stamping shop, body shop, paint shop, and trim and final shop. Proton Tanjung Malim is now set to become Malaysia's next boom town, thanks to the recent acquisition of virtually half of its equity by China's Zhejiang Geely Holdings Group. Thousands of new jobs are expected to be created with the economic spillover effects transforming the quiet Perak town and beyond as Geely, backed by its world class research and development and design centers, is targeting to produce 500,000 cars for the Southeast Asian markets alone by 2020.
NOTE: - The visit is strictly limited to 30 participants registered on a first-come, first-served basis.
