1,000 Isuzu D-MAX owners participate in Merdeka Day convoys

Isuzu Malaysia once again joined in the celebrations marking 68 years since the country gained independence. This year, over 1,000 Isuzu D-MAX owners participated in the Isuzu Merdeka Convoy around the country. The convoys originated from 39 authorized Isuzu dealerships and the D-MAX owners drove to various attractions within their state in a show of their patriotic spirit with fellow owners and their families.

The dealerships organised activities at each location, such as orchard visits, picnics, durian feasts, sight-seeing at tourist attractions, island-hopping and participating in extreme games.

Isuzu Malaysia’s CEO, Tomoyuki Yamaguchi, flagged off one convoy from Seremban, Negeri Sembilan. Experiencing this national event for the first time, Mr. Yamaguchi admired the patriotic spirit and unity of Malaysians when celebrating this historic occasion.

“The Isuzu Merdeka convoy is quickly establishing itself as an amazing platform for our customers to showcase their patriotism and pride. It is truly heartwarming to see Malaysian people from various walks of life sharing a common love of the country and enjoying its proudest moment,” said Mr. Yamaguchi.

Kenichi Kudo, Isuzu’s Light Commercial Vehicle Division’s Chief Operating Officer (also seeing the Merdeka Day celebrations for the first time), said: “Apart from the opportunity to celebrate the unity of Merdeka with fellow Malaysians, the Isuzu Merdeka Convoy was also an excellent opportunity for owners to appreciate the sheer beauty of the country while enjoying the absolute pleasure of driving their Isuzu D-MAX.”
