    Mazda Moves Production of Philippine-Market CX-5 to Malaysia; Makes It Immune to Excise Tax Increase | Philippine Car News, Car Reviews & Prices - ************

    Of course the distributor can still price it close to its rivals to get better markup.

    it would appear, the cheaper cost of production + taxation brought about by the shift from japan manufacture to malaysian, makes it possible for the local dealer, to sell it cheaper than current local price + new tax.

    the shift in manufacturing plant of mazda (from non-asean japan to asean malaysia), would result (daw) in reduced manufacturing cost and tax.
    even if the new excise tax is added to its new cost, the final market price would still be less than its current price.
