MCO 2.0: Toyota, Honda temporarily halt car production in Malaysia
#1
KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 15 — Japanese automotive giants Toyota Motor Corp and Honda Motor have stopped operations at several assembly plants across Malaysia due to the reimplementation of the movement control order (MCO) to curb the spread of Covid-19 infections.

According to a report by Nikkei Asia, Toyota shut down two plants yesterday, with a representative saying that a decision on when they would reopen will be made later on. 

Honda on the other hand, also stopped production at two factories — one produces two-wheel vehicles,  and another four-wheel drives — on Wednesday and plans to freeze operations until the MCO is due to be lifted on January 26.

Perodua, the national automaker backed by Japanese car company Daihatsu Motor, also discontinued production on Thursday.
