New policy targets volume producers, brakes put on trucks
Government is set to introduce significant changes to its automotive policy, with the emphasis to shift from export incentives to production support. The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) issued a broad strategy document on its new policy – currently being drafted – in December, with details to be available in August this year, when the review process of the Motor Industry Development Programme (MIDP), will be completed. The review of the MIDP, government's current export-orientated support programme, started in 2005. The MIDP is legislated until 2009. The DTI statement follows calls from the local automotive industry for policy certainty, especially as several investment decisions are pending.

Use Auto Refinancing to Ease the Family Budget
(ARA) - With gas prices at an all-time high and no relief in site, families are finding it necessary to cut back their spending on other items in order to fill up the car's tank. It's reported that gas prices could exceed $4 per gallon this summer.With prices in the stratosphere, cutting out little luxuries like a morning latte or dinner at a restaurant only goes so far, especially if you own an SUV or family minivan. If you need to find ways to save meaningful amounts of cash every month, consider refinancing your car. By refinancing, you could get a lower interest rate, and therefore, a lower monthly payment. Customers who apply for auto refinancing through companies such as RateGenius Loan Services can potentially see a great savings in their monthly budget. RateGenius customers, on average, reduce their interest rate an average of 3.67 percent from their previous interest rate, and an average of $65 off their existing monthly auto payment. More>>
