[Title] => Car firms buck lower tariff on CBU vehicles
[Summary] => Local automotive manufacturers are against lowering the tariffs on completely built-up (CBU) vehicles.
According to incoming Isuzu Philippines executive vice president Kazuhiko Sho, the Philippine government should discourage CBU imports and instead continue encouraging the local assembly of vehicles using semi-knocked-down (SKD) kits.
Sho pointed out that all of the major Japanese automotive manufacturers have invested in their local manufacturing operations in the country and have already built up a network along with local automotive parts makers and suppliers.
