On April 3, The Thailand Board of Investment (BOI) collaborated with MG Cars, Thailand Industrial Park Management Authority, Thailand Subcontracting Promotion Association, and Standard Chartered Bank (Thailand) Ltd. to host the "MG Supplier Day" event at the Rama Garden Hotel in Bangkok.
The event attracted more than 450 participants from 218 local parts suppliers, with 134 of them engaging in business negotiations covering more than 40 different types of parts such as body parts, power systems, interiors, wiring harnesses, metal and plastic parts, etc.
Mr. Naris Teerathadaisakul, Secretary-General of the BOI, stated that building a complete and strong local supply chain is the key to the sustainable development of Thailand's electric vehicle industry. The BOI has always been committed to promoting the connection between local suppliers and international car companies, helping local suppliers improve their technical and quality levels, and enhancing their international competitiveness.
BOI invested in a total of 103 projects related to the development of the electric vehicle business, including electric vehicle production, battery production, and important components, as well as charging station services, with a total investment of 77.192 billion Thai baht. In order to promote the development of domestic component manufacturers in Thailand, BOI has cooperated with many car companies such as BYD, NETA, and BMW to hold procurement day events, and plans to hold this event with Changan, GAC-Aion, Great Wall Motor, and other companies in the future.

If you're considering buying a Hilux, honestly, the comprehensive innovations in the ninth generation are worth waiting for.

Jaecoo J7 VS Honda CR-V, which is the most worthwhile C-Segment SUV to buy
With an exterior that closely resembles a Land Rover, Jaecoo J7's sales experienced several months of rapid growth but have recently slowed down. Perhaps the market is nearing saturation, as Jaecoo J7 has already surpassed the once-dominant Honda CR-V in the C-Segment SUV category.
Which one is better, Honda City or Toyota Vios?
When choosing a compact sedan, Honda City and Toyota Vios are often two options that make people weigh repeatedly. You might be attracted to the dynamic design of the Vios but also be captivated by the City.
Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?
Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.
Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?
Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.
