Harley-Davidson Beli MV Agusta, akhirnya...

Pada tahun 2005, dengan persetujuan Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, Proton dipaksa menjual MV Agusta dengan harga satu Euro dan menderita kerugian RM500 juta. Pada 12 Julai lalu, BMW menjual MV Agusta kepada Harley-Davidson dengan harga US$109 juta (RM359.7 juta).

MV Agusta, Italy's legendary motorcycle maker that dominated international racing from the late Fifties to the mid-Seventies, has been bought by the Harley-Davidson group.

The deal, announced yesterday, gives the Americans total ownership of the company for only €70 million (£56 million), including debts of about €45 million.

In 2007, MV produced only 5,819 motorcycles - flashy and expensive status symbols that cost much more than their competitors without, critics say, providing particularly exciting performance.

Tidakkah Badan Pencegah Rasuah atau sebuah suruhanjaya bebas berminat menyiasat kejadian ini?
