This is not a vehicle manufacturing company. This is just a vehicle assembly garage. Why so much publicity is given to a foolish political jilmart?

Hmmm, no one from VW there? VW's name is not even in the stone.Is this a white elephant. Only foundation stone?doesn't seem legit

The flags hoisted doesn't indicate the real Volkswagen emblem and didn't see any body representing the German company. Smells fishy?

It is not a car manufacturing plant - just assembly like Micro which doing chinese cars, SUVs and busses for past ten years. Nothing so great but at least something is better to give jobs to locals..
