The Japanese manufacturers have been complaining about the Koreans for quite a while already ... it's possible that the one put in charge this time does not accept or stopped accepting grease money ...
The 1B is not a fine ... it's the incentives that were given to assemblers that they are required to return to the government ...Last edited by Walter; June 29th, 2017 at 07:20 AM.

July 1st, 2017 11:36 AM #15I was under the impression that all hyundais here coming from batangas are CBUs built in Korea. Even the stickers on the side windows of hyundais and kia's say "made in korea".

simple really
Hyundai HQ does not have an assembly plant in the Phils.
So why would they send knocked-down units to the Phils. for assembly

HARI really is greedy, apart from stripping their units down to bare minimum, they even have the gall to steal money (taxes) intended for the people!
And how come the mainstream news outlets are not reporting this?

July 2nd, 2017 09:00 AM #18well, the practice of stripping the cars is not unique to hari. "just look at the cars we have here, and their equivalents elsewhere."
and avoiding paying taxes, is extremely common, if i may harshly suggest.
i heard it fresh from dzmm.
we probably wanted it in screaming headlines everywhere, 'cause we are car aficionadoes. alas, there were other deemed-more-news-worthy items that overshadowed it that day.
conicidentally, a popular auto publication just recently included the eon as one model that was assembled (manufactured?) locally. i wonder now, how this ruling will affect its price now.
as an aside, this CKD versus SKD is nothing new. it was already an issue back in the 70s.Last edited by dr. d; July 2nd, 2017 at 09:04 AM.

If it is not on the headlines, that means HARI paid good money to keep this down.
Sa requirements ng govt, mitsu at toyota lang talaga ang kaya mag produce ng x amount of vehicles dahil mataas ang demand nila dito.
HARI just got greedy and got caught.
