Given the worrying signs for Proton in Pakistan – rock-bottom sales, serious trust deficit among buyers, dealerships parting ways and a deafening silence from both Proton Malaysia and Al-Haj Automotive (Proton Pakistan's social media and website are ghost towns).
What's the latest informed take from you guys on whether Proton can actually survive in the Pakistani auto scene?

With zero word on their future plans, are we looking at a real possibility of Proton packing up and leaving Pakistan altogether? Wish this isn't true.
What are the tell-tale signs that industry watchers and folks thinking of buying a Proton should keep an eye out for to figure out if the brand is in it for the long haul?
