This just in. DRB-Hicom and Geely Holding Group are having a joint press conference in Shah Alam this morning, and have announced the new board of Proton.

The new CEO of PONSB is Li Chunrong, who replaces Datuk Ahmad Fuaad Kenali. Deputy CEO Radzaif Mohamed remains in his position. Part of the Definitive Agreement signed between DRB-Hicom and Geely is to ensure that the Chinese carmaker not only holds an investment in Proton, but also for it to lend expertise in the area of production, manufacturing, operations and marketing, namely in PONSB.

There has never been a more exciting time, than to witness the beginning of a great adventure to greatness. Almost as reminiscent of late 2005 when Syed Zainal Abidin came to fix Proton, then Proton had their most successful phase.

All we can say at this point is God-bless. And hopefully it won’t turn out to become another white elephant where us taxpayers pay for it’s survival.no i have no problem with even Venezuelan or even an Israelis as ARAMCO CEO, but now cats out the bagMalaysia had 30 years to make something out of nothing ike SK with similar population and aspirations, but unlike SK we failed miserably. Our political leaders are now pointing fingers for this failure yet it was politics not business that killed it.
