0:21 - The long-awaited National Automotive Policy or NAP 2020 will be unveiled today by Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamed. The NAP is particularly significant because it will affect jobs and investments into the country. What the policy dictates and prioritizes will be key to determine if Malaysia can compete effectively against our Asean neighbors like Thailand and Indonesia which have already leapfrogged ahead as auto manufacturing hubs.

6:04 - The Morning Run Crew also discusses on biodiesel.
