Starting off as a green technology R&D company in 2008, Eclimo Sdn Bhd is the only company in Malaysia that makes electric motorbikes today.

Datuk Dennis Chuah shares the reasons behind his venture into such a business and why he thinks there is demand despite his bikes priced at RM18,800 (!) a pop.

He also shares his views on the macro platform and operating landscape for electric vehicles as well as the policies needed in countries to drive the agenda through.
