                    [Summary] => The recently-released National Auto Policy of Malaysia is causing concern among ASEAN member-countries due to its continuing bias against automotive imports from Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines.


While Malaysia has reduced tariffs on imported ASEAN CBU (completely built-up) vehicles to five percent as agreed upon under the ASEAN Free Trade Agreement, it continues to impose certain policies that basically act as non-trade barriers.

As far as Roxas is concerned, "we need to respond to it at our own pace and own way."

Roxas acknowledged that free trade has its advantages and disadvantages.

Consumers will benefit through cheaper prices as certain products will be produced in mass quantities in countries like the US.
