Housing and local government minister Nga Kor Ming has offered to be the liaison between Perak state and federal governments to facilitate discussions on the potential investment by BYD in Perak, New Straits Times has reported.
“I am willing to become a bridge between the state government and the federal government so that this matter can be brought to the attention of the prime minister and MITI, to ensure that BYD does not go to other states but remains in Perak,” he said.
The minister said that investment remained the backbone of economic development, and job creation and income generation would not be possible without it.
“It is very important that Perak becomes an investment-friendly state. In Perak, there are three flagship investments: the Automotive High-Tech Valley (AHTV) in Tanjung Malim, Lumut Maritime Industrial City (LUMIC), and the Kerian Integrated Green Industrial Park. These three high-impact projects are capable of steering Perak towards greater excellence,” Nga said.
Last week, prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said that the issue of allegedly strict conditions being imposed on electric vehicle (EV) companies will be brought up for discussion with the ministry of investment, trade and industry (MITI).
This followed remarks by Perak tourism, industry investment and corridor development committee chairman Loh Sze Yee, who said that the federal government needs to review the conditions on EV companies planning to set up factories in the country.
In March, it was reported that BYD was reconsidering its plans to set up production in Malaysia because it could not agree to terms set by MITI. The ministry then responded with a statement on the matter.

Sorry no thanks! eventhough i think gov need to rethink and reconsider about this MITI vs BYD issue! but no to mr NGA, another arrogant damn ass minister, who only know how to “PLAY SHIT STICK” and “BUNYI BESAR”, “SHOES WIPER”, what have he really done that is particularly right…. bullshit “BMW” toilet, does the toilet really getting BMW now!? bullshit ” KAMPUNG BARU”, the kampung baru need so much ur assist? its already good and already better even before ur help, u just keep triggering malay communities when u do this, “MYKIOSK” and “TAMAN MADANI” not sure who and how much ppl BTS pocket how much money from all this bullshit project…. So being him as a middle man means gettin him more chances or maybe someone more chances to pocket money
Agreed!. Nga please stay out. MITI and Government Cabinet minister in-charge should be responsible fully. If in the big picture it does npt benefit our economy priority, then let it be noted in cabinet meeting minute. No need for another minister to intervene and muddle up the decision making. Cabinet decision making is good enough. no need ‘Hero’ in this case.

How to believe you when you lied about the cause of the 2021 Kelana Jaya LRT train collision in your comment on 31-12-2025.

DAP mah, Duit Aku Punya party
will fireworks be somehow involved? i know nga has a massive boner for them
fireworks are popular with all rakyat, so Nga is merely giving the rakyat what they want and ask for
Go look at BYD itself in terms of statistics. It maybe Tesla beater but is losing money because of the price war especially in China. It got reason to pull out CKD plant in Malaysia, that’s why. Don’t believe, google yourself.
Then why many people not buying tesla where you dont know not only here but other countries too where cant beat byd and any other brands
Meanwhile tesla have lots of reliability issues where you dont know
Reliabity issue…show the facts else you talk kok.
Why not drive tesla first rather than u talk and will know why. Especially many tesla owners not only in malaysia but also other countries. Even there are many news and videos also there as well, shows on why tesla arent reliable than byd and other brands.
Whatever it is, BYD is more worth to buy than Tesla in terms of overall and long term
Smells fishy. He is indicating that he has personal interest in this CKD-BYD issue. Every single Malaysian should scrutinize this particular MP.
Why can’t he leave his colleague @ MITI in handling the issue? Because they are from different party, aren’t they?
all eyes are on the BYD vs MITI issue right now. If BYD pulls out of Malaysia and drifts to our neighbors, we would lose out for years in terms of investment. Also proves that MITI is helmed by incapable and outdated person.
Better ask BYD to invest in Thailand or Indonesia, in bolehland, the rules wil change here n there due to protect P2 n P2
Nga Kor Ming, our minister bold,
Bring in BYD, let the future unfold.
Existing plants are surely not enough,
Bring in the power—bring in BYD Electric too!
Powering Malaysia as fast as we can.
The industry cannot suffer energy crisis.
Malaysia had a opportunity but lost it again. Thanks madani bankrupt old tech.
This fellow a bit fishy…just wondering what happened to “his driver” tailgating ambulance issue? I know it is not Nga’s fault because he just sit at the back not knowing “his driver” is tailgating
