The plant is being set up near Karachi after Proton saw the potential for its cars in Pakistan to be huge.

National carmaker Proton will collaborate with a local partner to establish a manufacturing assembly plant in Pakistan, its first in the South Asia region.said an agreement was inked by Proton and its local partner, Alhaj Automotive last year.

“This is significant because it will be Proton’s first plant in South Asia because the population of Pakistan is 210 million,” Ikram told Malaysian media at the High Commission in Islamabad. According to Ikram, the construction of the car plant was one of the important elements of bilateral trade and investment relationship between the two countries as Proton was Mahathir’s brainchild during his first tenure as prime minister.

Last year, total trade between Malaysia and Pakistan stood at RM5.91 billion, which was an increase of 2.5 per cent compared to RM5.76 billion in 2017.Ikram said Pakistan is Malaysia’s largest export market in South Asia and the third for import destination.
