GM and China's SAIC to push into Indonesia with no-frills vans
Beijing
GENERAL Motors and Chinese partner SAIC Motor Corp will soon announce a joint push into Indonesia, using their no-frills Wuling brand to establish a beachhead in South-east Asia's biggest market and from there tackle other markets in the region, sources said.
They have already made moves to purchase a property in an industrial district on the outskirts of Jakarta, according to two people familiar with the matter, and are expected to detail within days what GM China chief Matt Tsien called an important joint venture in a country of 240 million people.
