Proton Finally Reopens Showrooms in Selangor, Malaysia

Following the Malaysian government’s decision to allow sales and manufacturing activities for the automotive industry to resume, Proton has announced that all its sales outlets will gradually reopen in Malaysia in accordance with the criterion set by the government.

The company said that the reopening of its sales outlets will be dependent on the percentage of targeted adults who have been vaccinated in each state. At present, Proton showrooms have been reopened in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Negeri Sembilan and Perlis, in addition to its sales outlets in Sabah and Sarawak, which were reopened in July.
